When talking about the “strong reaction” of the Japanese domestic public opinion caused by the loss to Costa Rica, senbao said: “My Notebook says the main points to be said today. First of all, the past cannot be changed, and the past must be turned into wealth. The second is no matter praise or criticism, as long as it can improve the national attention and interest in football and deepen the understanding and discussion of football, it should be accepted happily.”
Regarding the rival Spanish team, senbaoyi spoke highly of it: “The Spanish team is excellent in physical condition, tactics and technology. Under the leadership of coach Enrick, they are a very comprehensive strong team. I have a deep understanding of the Spanish national team and the players. They make me feel deeply that a country’s football must have its own consistent style and rhythm.”
When it comes to the fact that the Japanese team lost to Spain in the semi-final of the Tokyo Olympic Games, senbao said: “We are very sorry and unwilling to do that game. There are also several players in the Spanish national team who have participated in the Tokyo Olympics. I hope that through tomorrow’s game, I can actually feel how Spanish players have improved from the Olympic team to the national team.”
When asked about the gap between football Asia and European and South American football, senbao said: “The whole world is following European football, whether in tactics or in physical training. But the gap is gradually narrowing.” He said: “The Spanish team is the same as the German team as the former world champion. Japanese football aims to win the World Cup before 2050. I hope that tomorrow we will try our best to find out how we should work hard in the future while striving for victory and group breakthrough.”
“No pressure, only expectation. I have to say that pressure is whether the players can give full play to their usual strength and play a game without regret. I believe it will come naturally.”
