Comment of Coach IKEDA Futoshi (Nadeshiko Japan)

We are delighted to be playing against England and Spain, two powerful countries with a great football culture. Spain won their most recent international friendly against the USA and we feel that they are a team with a lot of momentum. We will continue to gain experience and build up as a team by playing against strong opponents with high individual ability, discipline and organisation. We will work together as a team to make the most of the two matches in Europe to prepare for next year's FIFA Women's World Cup Australia/ New Zealand 2023™.
