Second day of the expedition to Spain.
During the day, the temperature rises close to 30°C, but it gets quite chilly in the mornings and evenings in Madrid.
This morning, it was 9°C, making it a chilly morning.
It was a morning where jet lag was a concern, but the players seemed to have slept soundly.
I was enjoying a hearty breakfast of bread and ham since the morning.

In the morning, training at the practice field of a team belonging to the 4th division of Spain, the same as yesterday.
Today, we will start training with a heart full of gratitude.


After training, I had lunch and then went shopping at a nearby supermarket.

The first match of the night is on the expedition to Spain.
This is a match against Atletico Madrid.
In the pre-match meeting, Coach Fujiyama instructed, "Let's actively perform our favorite plays. Let's see how well they hold up on the world stage," and the players reaffirmed their strengths as they prepared for the match.



Although we struggled with the opponent's ball possession at the start, we gradually adapted and began to take control in both offense and defense. The first half ended in a scoreless draw, but we took the lead in the second half with Nakamura's goal.
After that, Ueno scored 2 goals, making it 3-1.
We celebrated our first match of the expedition with a victory.

Tomorrow, we will have a training match against the local UD San Sebastián de los Reyes.
