The expedition to France has entered its fifth day.
Checking the condition by taking a walk in a slightly different place than usual.
Have a hearty breakfast and make good preparations.

The first match of the second day of the qualifying league is against Genk from Belgium.
The players are all facing the same direction, highly motivated both individually and as a team, and their condition is improving, so they want to have a good fight.

Fukagawa applies coordinated pressing from the front line, steals the ball, and increases the time in the opponent's court.
In that situation, a foul was committed in front of the penalty area, resulting in a direct free kick. Konno directly shook the net and scored the opening goal.

As they made substitutions for the second half, they played aggressively on both offense and defense, winning 1-0 just like in the first half.
It was a victory earned by everyone.

Since there is a little time until the second match, I will watch other matches of the same age group.

Receive good stimulation and further enhance motivation.
The opponent in the second match is Gangan.
The match started with a sense of having achieved our first victory and coming together as a team.
However, we conceded the opening goal to the opponent's fine shot early on.
After that, both teams created chances but were unable to score, ending the first half at 0-1.
In the second half, after making player substitutions, Hirano equalized with a goal, and continued to create chances thereafter.

However, failing to secure this led to conceding a winning goal just before the end, resulting in a 1-2 defeat.
Tomorrow we will fight in the ranking match.

We want to face the remaining matches as a united team and win them all.
