Bruno GARCIA, Coach’s Comment

It was a very difficult choice to create this list ahead of the AFC Futsal Championship. After close consideration and tough decision making, we strongly believe we have chosen the best squad considering the fact we have very limited time to prepare and develop as a team. I would like all 14 players to show their pride and spirit as the member of Japan Futsal National Team. We have the obligation to fight in behalf of the nation, and make the people of Japan proud. I fully expect all of my players to share that same mission and work as a team. We were able to show you what we are capable of through our match against Argentina, who is one of the best rivals in the world. We still have time to prepare, so we would like to improve on our quality of style, to show everyone an even more polished Japan Futsal National Team.
