How did the image of Brazil's main striker come to this.
Japan will play a friendly match against Brazil at 7:30 p.m. on the 14th at Ajinomoto Stadium in Chofu, Tokyo. Earlier, Japan had a 2-2 draw with Paraguay, ranked 37th in the FIFA rankings.
It is true that Brazil is not as strong as it was when it had the status of the World Cup winner in the early 2000s. Since the late 2000s, Brazil has not produced as clear a result in international competitions as it used to. Still, Brazil is Brazil. There are many world-class players such as Vinicius Junior, Rodrigo (Real Madrid), Istevan (Chelsea), Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle), and Matheus Cunha (Manchester United).
Brazil is still a team that can devastate the opposing team with only individual abilities. He proved it perfectly in the match against Korea. He would not have been in 100% condition due to changes in the environment such as jet lag, but he taught me a lesson in soccer with a 5-0 complete victory over Korea.
However, Hishalisson does not seem to be treated like a Brazilian player. According to a report by the Japanese Football Channel on the 14th, Japanese national defender Daiki Hashioka (SK Slavia Prague) did not worry about Hishalisson at all.
First of all, Hashioka said "I don't think everything will go one way in defense just because the opponent is Brazil. I hope we can fully utilize the strength of our attack and at the same time block the attack, which is our opponent's strengthHe expressed confidence that Japan will be able to show a Japanese-like performance against Brazil.
Hashioka played for Premier League side Luton Town last season. When I played for Luton, I faced Tottenham, so I faced Hishalisson. Recalling the memories of that time, Hashioka once faced a player like Hishalisson himself. He is more than 180 centimeters tall, but he didn't feel very strong. If I play in this game, I'm sure I'll block him completely."
It is true that Hishalisson has not played properly since moving to Tottenham in the summer of 2022, but he is not a player to be ignored like this. Everton consistently showed off their scoring ability with more than one goal per three games. He is still criticized for failing at Tottenham, but he is a talented striker who scored 20 goals in 53 games for the amazing Brazilian national team.
The 2024-2025 season, when he faced Hashioka, was the most sluggish period for Hishali Song. This season, he is in such good condition that he is responsible for Tottenham's attack in the early stages by showing a different appearance. Hashioka can get a big blow if he ignores Hishali Song.
