Coach's Comment
TAKAKURA Asako, Coach (Nadeshiko Japan)
The Costa Rica National Team displayed aggressive and enticing football managed under Amelia VALVERDE in the FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015. We are seeing one of the new and upcoming teams of women’s football, and as the coach of the new Japanese squad I am looking forward to the match in Kumamoto.
