U-15 Musashi France Expedition Day 3
[Day 3 Activity Report]
The third morning also started with a walk in the clear and refreshing air. The city was still quiet, and just walking made me feel my mind becoming calm and centered.
The jet lag we were worried about was not as bad as expected, and it seems that many players were able to get a good, deep sleep last night, allowing them to start the day in good condition. It is very reassuring that they can secure proper rest even while traveling.

After having lunch at the PSG dormitory, we took a bus to the academy facilities in preparation for the practice match scheduled with PSG in the afternoon. Upon arrival, the first thing that caught our eyes was the magnificent and sophisticated clubhouse. While being overwhelmed by its scale and atmosphere, the players were wrapped in a good sense of tension and excitement, naturally tightening their expressions. Filled with joy and anticipation to play in an environment different from usual, each player steadily proceeded with their preparations for the match.



Although the match result was disappointing, compared to the first away game, there were many plays filled with passion throughout, and we could clearly feel the players' change in attitude and awareness. During the match, despite PSG's high level of skill and build-up with sound judgment, the team pressed aggressively from the front without hesitation and showed many tenacious moments of resilience.
Condition-wise, things seem to be gradually improving, and definite improvements can be seen in the quality of play and teamwork. Although challenges remain, the content showed more growth and a sense of achievement as a team. It was a fulfilling third day with an increase in positive factors heading into the tournament.
