The Weifang Cup 2017 has started today.
The opponent in the first match is the previous champion, Deportivo Brasil.
The kickoff took place in the harsh heat of 35 degrees Celsius and 80% humidity.

Tokyo, unable to grasp the unique rhythm and tempo of Brazil, conceded a goal in the first 30 minutes.
After that, with goalkeeper Takahashi at the center, they maintained high concentration and did not allow any additional goals, ending the first half.
However, shortly after the start of the second half, we conceded 3 goals, and then we were scored on again, resulting in a total of 6 goals conceded.
The attacking team struggled to score, ending with a 0-6 result.

There were moments where it was effective, but in this harsh environment, Tokyo made a few more mistakes, and it became a match that highlighted Brazil's skill in taking advantage of those opportunities.
 

In the afternoon, we moved to the stadium to watch the opening game of this tournament, China U-19 vs Wolfsburg.
The match, featuring large bodies, ended in a 1-on-1 draw in a high-level game.
Since both teams are in the same group, the players were watching the match while imagining the possibilities.

In the evening, a players' meeting will be held, followed by a team meeting.
There was a discussion about the issues that arose in today's match and the importance of diet and sleep for fighting in this heat.

Tomorrow we have a match against the China U-19 national team.
This match will determine whether hopes for the upper group are extinguished if we lose.
I want to create the best condition and approach the match.
