[U-15] Germany Expedition Report Day 3

Third day of the Germany expedition.
In the morning, I watched the Final Round of the tournament.
The championship was won by Rapid (Austria), who defeated FC Tokyo yesterday with a score of 5-2.
I was able to once again feel the skill in techniques and tactics suited to the situation, as well as the strength in ball contests that I felt yesterday.


The closing ceremony featured dance and singing performances, and Mr. Beckenbauer appeared as a presenter at the awards ceremony, enhancing the events of the closing ceremony.

After that, I strolled around the Champions League final event venue for about an hour, returned to the hotel, and had lunch.


In the afternoon to evening, finally, we will watch the long-awaited UEFA Champions League Final.
Departed three hours before kickoff to head to the venue. The players were able to feel the atmosphere of the game that the world is watching as they saw each other's passionate supporters singing the team's anthem along the way to the Olympia Stadium.

Upon entering the venue, I could feel the high quality of the authentic experience that cannot be found in Japan, with supporters from both teams cheering around the field, and the abundance of media and security.

The match that kicked off at 8:45 PM passed by in the blink of an eye, without a moment to worry about the passage of time.
Watching the high-quality play of world-class players from both teams made me realize the importance of finding what I need for my future, changing my mindset, and putting in more effort than ever before.


I will be heading back home on an evening flight tomorrow.
