[U-15 Fukagawa] 4th Day of France Expedition

The morning of the 4th day of the expedition started with light exercise in the police academy dormitory courtyard.
As usual, I finished my morning training with a breakfast of bread and cereal.
Practice ball control and direct kicks on a bumpy pitch, with a focus on simulating game situations.
After that, we had lunch at the dormitory and finally it's the first day of the Sun's International Cup.

Kickoff will be at 17:40 for a 16-minute half.
In the midst of a tense and pleasant tension, various confirmations are made during the meeting to warm up.
We will prepare for the game in a tense atmosphere, unlike the difficult day before.

The first opponent is Rennes. Until three years ago, it was a club that received the highest evaluation in the development department in France and has produced many professional players.
Players from Fukagawa are one head taller than the rest, and GK is two heads taller, using their speed and power to push through.
Unable to score despite team's efforts to repel opponent's fast and powerful attacks, and approaching the goal from set plays.
Intense and continuous tough game development without losing concentration in a tense situation resulted in a scoreless draw.

The tough matches against strong teams will continue even after tomorrow.
I hope to grab victory along with the team's growth.
 

After the game, the opening ceremony of the tournament was held, and they livened up the venue with an impressive performance.

Moved to the dinner venue after watching only the first half of the Juventus (Italy) match starting at 8pm.
This is very bright even at 8pm, giving off an atmosphere of finally becoming evening.


Tomorrow, there will be two games in the morning and one game in the afternoon, with tough battles ahead.
All players and staff will work together to overcome this.
