Coach Comment
KUSUNOSE Naoki, Coach
We are going to play against some of the world's powerhouses Ghana, Paraguay and the United States. Every country won through the tough qualifiers and we won't win against them so easily. There are just three months to go. We will try to go out with a good level of tension and get ready for the tournament.
