Japan, which has lost pride in the U.S. away game, will play against Paraguay's Minamosuzuki Doan as a European player
Japan seeks to rebound to European players.

Japan will play a friendly match against Paraguay at the Panasonic Stadium in Osaka, Japan on the 10th. Paraguay has made it to the World Cup finals for the first time in 16 years since the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Japan lost its pride in the U.S. expedition last month. After a 0-0 draw with Mexico, they lost to the United States 0–2. They didn't score a goal in two games, and they didn't win. Although he was curious to win the World Cup, he received a poor report card compared to South Korea, which won and drew one win against the same team.




The desperate Japan set up a new march against two teams, Paraguay, Brazil and South America. Except for six, 20 were European. Endo Wataru (Liverpool) and Mitoma Kaoru (Brighton) were missing two key resources, but they still built strong power.

All the members of Paraguay are European. Koki Ogawa, who is active in Niimeheon in the Netherlands, is one-top, while Takumi Minamino of AS Monaco, Junya Ito of Genk in Belgium, Tanaka Ao of Leeds in England, Doan Ritz of Frankfurt, Keito Nakamura of Langs in France and Sano Gaishu of Mainz in Germany are on the waistline.

The three-back was formed by Tsuyoshi Watanabe of Feyenoord, Seko Ayumu of Le Havre, France, and Junnosuke Suzuki of Copenhagen, Denmark. Suzuki Zaion, who plays for Parma, Italy, defended the goal.




Japan will meet Brazil four days after the match against Paraguay.
