Japan Futsal National Team in final preparations ahead of meeting Czech on Europe trip

Japan Futsal National Team in final preparations ahead of meeting Czech on Europe trip

Japan Futsal National Team were in final preparations prior to the coming match against the Czech Republic. YOSHIKAWA Tomoki (MAGNA GURPEA/Spain), who arrived the day before, joined the team for the first time after the Chiba training camp back in June. He was eager to communicate with the other players, while showing off his plays.

The team practiced in detail the way to take shots swiftly in a 3-on-2 situation, as well as avoiding an opponent’s pressure. After the defeat against Croatia, the team learned the key will be how to play against European teams and how to avoid pressure and reaches, which are at a somewhat different level from Asian teams.

Players' Comments

NAKAMURA Yusuke (NAGOYA OCEANS)
Today we practiced counter-attacks as well as defence, thinking of tomorrow’s game against the Czech Republic. I’d like to continue what I’ve been practicing, and aim to put in a high-level performance as a team. I’ll look for positive results from two consecutive matches against the Czech Republic as the national team.

YOSHIKAWA Tomoki (MAGNA GURPEA/Spain) 
I arrived yesterday, and joined the practice session today. Personally, although it’s been a while since I played for the national team, I am really looking forward to this and I am full of spirit. We’ll play the game tomorrow. I’d like to show my plays as much as possible, and contribute to the team’s victory. I’d like to win the two coming matches in preparation for the AFC Futsal Championship.
