The JFA Academy Fukushima midfielder was an attacking threat throughout the campaign, playing a pivotal role in the now seven-time champions’ run to the final with goals across the group stage and knockout rounds.
“I expected today to be a tough match but we prepared well. As an attacking player, I always want to score goals, create more chances and press more. I’m happy that I was able to do that and I’m honoured to achieve this result," said Fukushima. .....
"I’m very happy. Thank you to all the fans and our team!”
