[U-15 Musashi] France Expedition Day 4

On April 6th, the 4th day of the France expedition, we observed the training of Paris Saint-Germain FC's U-17 and U-19 teams in the morning.


It was a time to be stimulated in various ways, such as the intensity, technique, and emotional expressions of players of similar age, not just in play.


Afterwards, we returned to the dormitory of Paris Saint-Germain FC, had lunch, and were able to meet Sergio Ramos, a member of the top team of Paris Saint-Germain FC, while taking a little break.
When the players called out "Sergio!", they kindly agreed to take photos.


In the afternoon, we will take a bus for about 2 and a half hours to move to Sansu, which is also the venue for the TSF International Tournament. We will arrive at the Sansu Police Academy dormitory and stay here from today.


After that, we played a 20-minute half practice match with a local club team, following the same regulations as this tournament.

The match was dominated from start to finish.
In the 2nd minute of the first half, Ko KOBAYASHI's free kick was blocked by the opposing goalkeeper, but Shuto JO followed up and scored the opening goal. In the 5th minute of the first half, Shuto JO scored his second goal from Ko KOBAYASHI's corner kick. Then, in the 7th minute, Riku NAKASHIMA scored the 4th goal with a middle shot, and the momentum continued as Rento KAJIYAMA scored the 5th goal with a header from Ko KOBAYASHI's free kick in the 15th minute of the first half. Rento KAJIYAMA calmly slotted in the 5th goal in front of the goal, and the first half ended with a score of 5-0. We will return for the second half with a 5-0 lead.

At halftime, we reaffirmed our commitment to "always aiming for the goal" and approached the second half with that mindset until the end.

In the second half, the momentum did not stop, and in the 7th minute of the second half, player Tessyo TAKAI flew out and scored a goal by dribbling past the goalkeeper. In the 13th minute of the second half, player Haruto SHIOZAKI scored the 7th goal with a header from a corner kick. In the 18th minute of the second half, Riku NAKASHIMA sealed the victory with a goal from a free kick.
The game ended with a total score of 8-0.


FC Tokyo always maintains an attitude of constantly aiming for the goal, and in this tournament, we have confirmed our communication on the pitch first, even against tough opponents with high quality and intensity, and have completed our preparations for the tournament.

Dinner will be set up at the venue by the tournament organizers.
During the tournament, we will be having meals together with other participating teams at this venue.


The main tournament will finally start from tomorrow, April 7th (Friday).
We will fight with all our might against the world.
