[Day 4 Activity Report] Thailand Expedition 2026
Day 4 of the Thailand expedition, the final day of the tournament.
On the way to breakfast, I encountered a dog kept at the facility.
It was the third day, and it seemed that the players had become attached to them.
We were also interacting in places like this.

Also, this was the last breakfast eaten at this facility.
I gave a shirt as a gift to a local child of about the same age who helped serve in the cafeteria, and took a photo together.
It became a very good memory for both of us. Thank You OKI!


The final day of the tournament featured the placement matches.
The players fought even harder than before, and although there were several decisive chances, they could not capitalize on them. Unfortunately, it ended in a 0-2 defeat.
As expected, it was difficult to achieve results in a tournament one category higher, but even so, the players fought hard and showed signs of growth.
We hope you will make use of the experience gained here in the future.


After the match, I went for a walk and stopped by a nearby convenience store to do some shopping.
Unlike Tokyo, we headed to a place about a 20-minute walk away.
The players themselves seemed to feel how fortunate their daily lives in Tokyo are.

The tournament has ended, but there was a team from Thailand that wanted to have a practice match with FC Tokyo, so we held a practice match.
I am truly grateful to hear that, and it made me realize once again that I am glad to have participated.

Since the tournament has ended, we left the hotel where we had been staying and moved to a new hotel for tomorrow's sightseeing and interaction with Bangkok United.
Even though they were tired from the match, the players enjoyed interacting with each other during the bus ride.

We arrived at the hotel around 10 PM, and as expected, the players were showing signs of fatigue.

Tomorrow will be sightseeing in Thailand and interaction with players of the same age group from Bangkok United.
The tournament has ended, but both were valuable opportunities, so we will continue to work on them.
