TOMIYASU Takehiro(Avispa Fukuoka U-18)
We were relieved by yesterday’s win, but on the other hand we need to brace ourselves up, too. Today we were very passive and we didn’t make our actions until we were told by our staff, so that’s something we have to change. Of course, the basic understanding of our tactics to be ready for the match against China is important. But as one of national team players, I will show my “fighting spirit.”
ISHIKAWA Hiroto(Sagan Tosu U-18)
I was given a lot of advice regarding tactics in today’s practice but at the same time there were also times when my own decision making worked very well. I think I can play the match tomorrow with confidence. I will fire my team up at warmup and get onto the pitch to take the initiative from start. Anyway, I would like to try my best not to leave any regret after the match.
