We are required to deal with those aspects. They will try to do everything they can to advance to the knockout stage, but Japan can improve ourselves even further by successfully dealing with them and defeating them. We are expecting to change the line-up from the second match and also the system from the one for the last two matches. With those changes we may be able to confuse the opponents we face in the knockout stage, but that will be truly relevant after we beat Saudi Arabia. Our top spot has been already secured, but even so we can’t afford to lose.
The team won the gold medal at the 2010 Asian Games and were champions in the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship. Since 1992, it was decided that teams targeting athletes under the age of 23 will participate in the Olympics (additional provisions for overage limits have been added since 1996). Therefore, the name changes to Japan national under-22 football team the year before the Olympics and Japan national under-21 football team two years prior. The exception to this is the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, which has been postponed for one year, so in 2021, the team will be called the Japan national under-24 football team.

Japan Time). The overall depth of the squad should be on full display for the third straight victory. Coach and Players' Comments TEGURAMORI Makoto, CoachThe strongest point of Saudi Arabia is something that we can call their instinctive plays. It is the way they attack simply toward goal. They do not mind making the flow of the match wide open, and also they don’t hesitate to play physical.

DF #2 MATSUBARA Ken (Albirex Niigata)Coach Teguramori said before the first match that he wanted me to focus on bringing up my conditioning and targeting at the third match. Since the training camp in November last year, he has cared about my conditioning so attentively. My conditioning has got better for sure. So I want to show my strengths such as feeding crosses and outrunning opponents in the third match. Middle Eastern countries tend to have their wingers so wide that I want to try to intercept their side-changes.
In addition, MUROYA Sei, who injured his left leg in the same match, did not join the team practice and instead focused on light running workout. ENDO Wataru and IWANAMI Takuya also left the rest of the squad after they finished the warm-up 7-on-2 passing drill, because those two players were on the pitch for the entire two straight matches. Endo and Iwanami changed their shoes from cleats to running shoes to engage in lighter jogs and stretching before calling it the day. Other field players moved on to another passing drill with the squad divided into two 8-man groups. The trademark drill of this team incorporates vertical passes that can be a starting point of attacks and combination work between multiple players.
After that, the offensive tactics to build up from centre-backs all the way to finishes were reviewed as well. As coach Teguramori instructed on ball movement, the squad exhibited a variety of formations to break down the opposing defence. Their individual creativity helped the flow of the offence be even smoother and quicker. In the specific drill to work on how to finish off crosses from the sides, strikers such as KUBO Yuya and midfielders including NAKAJIMA Shoya were seen striking fierce shots taking advantage of feeds from MATSUBARA Ken, YAMANAKA Ryosuke, KAMEKAWA Masashi and other full-backs.
