On the morning of the fourth day of the expedition, we started by lightly moving our bodies with some exercises in the courtyard of the police academy dormitory.
As usual, I finished my breakfast of bread and cereal and headed to the morning training.
Practice ball control and direct kicks on a bumpy pitch, simulating match conditions.
After that, we had lunch at the dormitory, and finally, the first day of the Sun International Cup.

The kickoff is at 17:40 for a 16-minute half.
Amid a pleasant tension, various confirmations were made in the meeting before warming up.
Unlike the previous day, which was difficult, we will prepare for the match in a focused atmosphere.

The opponent in the first match is Rennes. Until three years ago, it was rated as the No. 1 youth development club in France and has produced many professional players.
Players and goalkeepers who are a head taller than the players from Fukagawa are pushing through with speed and power.
While the team unitedly repelled the opponent's fast and powerful attacks, they approached the goal from set plays but were unable to score.
In a tense development, the match was very intense and tough with continuous play, resulting in a scoreless draw as both sides maintained their concentration.

We will continue to have very tough matches against strong teams from tomorrow onwards.
We want to seize victory as we grow as a team.
 

After the match, the opening ceremony of the tournament was held, and it energized the venue with an impressive performance.

Watch the Juventus (Italy) match from 8 PM only for the first half and then move to the dinner venue.
It is still very bright at 8 PM, and it finally feels like evening.

Tomorrow, there will be two matches in the morning and one match in the afternoon, continuing the tough battles that are crucial for victory.
All players and staff will unite to overcome this.
