About the opponent Ghana
"As long as they can compete with African teams in terms of physical quality, there is nothing to be afraid of. But of course it is also very difficult. To be honest, the current Ghana team's strength does not match their FIFA ranking of 73rd. They may be much stronger than everyone thinks, especially their wide forward players, which are nothing compared to the Brazilian team's wide forwards. Not inferior, they have two very good wide forwards. Although I don’t know what this competition will be like, I still hope to go all out.”
About the comparison of the two teams’ wide forwards
“At present, whether it is the Japanese team’s wide forward or the Ghana team’s wide forward, their personal abilities are very good. , with Kudus on the right. These two wide forwards can break through the opponent's defense alone, and their speed and physical fitness are also very good. As I just said, Ghana's FIFA ranking is only 73, but this does not mean that all their players are ranked 73. Therefore, not only our players must go all out, but all the fans who support us must also be vigilant about their selection. National Team
"I love to represent the Japanese team. Even if I stay in Spain to continue training and rest, as long as I can play, I want to go all out. Because it is a great honor for me to represent the national team; now that I have been selected, I must win glory for the national team. I hope to win the game as a representative of the national team before the end of the year and draw a successful conclusion to this year."
