On Thursday 28 April, Japan Football Association (JFA) announced the participating countries of the KIRIN CUP SOCCER 2022, which will take place for the first time in six years. Ahead of November’s FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™, the SAMURAI BLUE (Japan National Team) will compete in the four-team tournament with Ghana National Team, Tunisia National Team, and Chile National Team. Matches will be played at Noevir Stadium Kobe (Hyogo) on Friday 10 June and Panasonic Stadium Suita (Osaka) on Tuesday 14. The tournament will serve as a precious opportunity for the SAMURAI BLUE to prepare and strengthen the team ahead of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™, which will take place in November. In addition to the two African countries who are set to play in the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™, South American powerhouse Chile will compete in the Kirin Cup. The SAMURAI BLUE are also set to play in the Kirin Challenge Cup 2022 against the Paraguay National Team on Thursday 2 June (Sapporo Dome, Hokkaido) and the Brazil National Team on Monday 6 (Japan National Stadium, Tokyo) to test their strength against international powerhouses. The Kirin Cup, which will be held for the first time since 2016, will take place in a four-country knockout format. Japan will play Ghana in their first match on 10 June, with Chile and Tunisia playing in the other match. The winners will play each other in the final and the losers in the third-place match on 14 June. Japan qualified for their seventh consecutive World Cup at the AFC Asian Qualifiers (Road to Qatar), which ended in March, and are currently ranked 23rd in the FIFA rankings. Ghana are 60th and Tunisia 35th, but both have qualified for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ by progressing through the African (CAF) Qualifiers. Although Chile did not make it past the South American (CONMEBOL) Qualifiers, they are 28th in the FIFA rankings. Japan hold head-to-head records of four wins and three losses against Ghana, four wins against Tunisia, and a win, a draw, and a loss against Chile. Opportunities for training matches before the World Cup are limited to these four matches in June, the EAFF E-1 Football Championship in July (which Japan will compete in with a team made up mainly of domestic players), and the FIFA international window in September. In a press conference held online, head coach MORIYASU Hajime shared his aspiration, “The Kirin Cup will give us the opportunity to play intense matches against some of the world's heavyweights such as Chile, Ghana and Tunisia. We want to play with a purpose and prepare ourselves for the World Cup in Qatar.” The coach identified three key areas in which he described as “objectives” for the matches in June, namely instilling the team concept, broadening the range of team tactics, and checking the performance of individual players. He also added, “We want to focus on earning results and be able to raise the Cup.” → Crédito: (Crédito: www.jfa.jp) • Comissão Técnica da Seleção Japonesa: • Técnico: MORIYASU Hajime (JFA Naitonal Coaching Staff) • Auxiliar Técnico: YOKOUCHI Akinobu (JFA Naitonal Coaching Staff) • Auxiliar Técnico: SAITO Toshihide (JFA Naitonal Coaching Staff) • Auxiliar Técnico: UENO Yusaku (JFA Naitonal Coaching Staff) • Psicólogo: MATSUMOTO Ryoichi (JFA Naitonal Coaching Staff) • Treinador de Goleiros: SHIMODA Takashi (JFA Naitonal Coaching Staff) • Staff: NAKASHITA Masaki (JFA Technical House) • Staff: SAKAI Kiyotaka (JFA Technical House)

Porque Deus amou o mundo de tal maneira, que deu seu Filho unigênito, para que todo aquele que Nele crer não pereça, mas tenha a vida eterna. (João 3.16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John, 3:16)
