Comment of Coach OIWA Go
We are very excited to be able to play against a strong country like Portugal, following our match against Spain. We are also grateful for the fact that we have been able to play in tense matches on a regular basis since the team's inception. In order to make the most of this valuable opportunity to play a series of matches against strong countries, we will be working closely with the players to prepare ourselves. I believe that a thorough preparation will help the players to develop their skills and nurture confidence, which will lead to future victories that will further accelerate their growth as players.
