[U-15] 8th day of the China Guangzhou Expedition

Day 8 of the expedition.
Today is a day to prepare ourselves well for tomorrow's Final Round.

In the morning, we thoroughly performed maintenance on our bodies and senses through stretching and ball feeling, and then we sweated through ball passing.
By the 8th day of the expedition, the boundaries between Fukagawa and Musashi are almost imperceptible, and it has become possible to feel the unity of one team.

Players from Guangzhou also participated in the practice

Afternoon revenge match against Shandong Luneng, who lost in the second group stage match.
It was a training match, but as the only team to suffer a defeat on this expedition, the players are determined to "show the strength of FC Tokyo this time."
The match was played in a 25-minute format.

The match was dominated by Tokyo, who maintained possession of the ball throughout and skillfully manipulated the opponent's defense with their passing. They demonstrated strength in the aerial duels and continuously recovered loose balls.
The result was a 5-1 victory for Tokyo. It was a game that seemed to vent the frustration of the previous defeat, and each player fought with "Tokyo pride".

Take control of offense and defense Feel the sense of unity as a team

Tomorrow's opponent is Guangzhou Evergrande, the tournament organizer.
With a huge financial power, they are a strong team in China, receiving coaches from Real Madrid and others.

So far, the Fukagawa and Musashi combined team has been able to feel more and more like a real team, as each player has consciously connected based on the theme of "conversation with teammates" shown by Coach Okuhara in their daily lives.
We have become a good team.
That's why I want to win tomorrow's final round and show the team "FC Tokyo" to China.
