Coach Comment

SASAKI Norio, Coach
I believe we prepared well through the practice sessions and meetings at the second training camp in Okinawa prior to the qualifiers. The players stayed motivated and were in excellent spirits.

I also considered each player’s condition as well.

With only a limited time to go before the final qualifying round, we’ll just focus on getting ready. Although the team’s current condition is good, we cannot be off our guard....
