Players’ Comments
TOJYO Masaya (Aomori Yamada High School)
I am glad to be called up for the first time. I could not demonstrate my strong point because of lack of communication with team members in the training. As a team, there were quite a few plays which were not aggressive enough and few voices among the team. Playing with players of high level, we should show fighting spirit and I want to be the one to lead the team. I want to demonstrate the team’s goal of “Playing with fighting spirit” tomorrow.
EGAWA Genki (Kyoto Sanga F.C. U-15)
I had been disappointed when my teammate was picked up for U-15 national team, I am very pleased to be called up this time. But as I was nervous and making few communication, I could not call other members as with the team as a whole. My strong point is to lead the team and I want to talk to the team members no matter if it is on or off the training. I learned something I need to improve, in other words, the intensity of 1-on-1 and fighting for a ball when I watched video of Indonesia trip at the night meeting. I want to implement what I learned today.
