🇯🇵 The Soccer World Cup North and Central America will finally begin on June 11th! 📅 It is expected that there will be around 10 backup members for the Japanese national team in preparation for the opening of the tournament. 🗣️ This information is highly reliable as it comes from multiple parties. 👨🏫 To my surprise, coach Hajime Moriyasu has already called out specific players. 🆘 “I want you to be prepared for emergencies.” 🧾 The names of FW Yuki Soma, DF Tomoya Ando, and MF Kodai Sano are on the list. 🌄 In order to “see the best scenery,” the Japanese team is prepared to provide full support. 🛡️ This is what Moriho Japan is all about, with solid preparations for emergencies. 📋 26 members of the World Cup announced on the 15th. 🔄 If someone withdraws due to injury or illness, the rule is that they can be replaced up to 24 hours before the first game. 🔄 A backup player is prepared as a candidate to replace him. 🧾 The Japan Association has asked around 10 people, mainly members of the UK expedition in March, to prepare. 🎙️ Coach Moriyasu has already explained, “We will not make an official announcement, but we will inform the players and ask them to prepare.” 📞 We have already contacted each player and their club, asking them not to let their condition drop even after the season. ⛔ Backup players cannot go on long-term off until June 13th. 🙌 Still, most players are expected to readily agree. Great professionalism! 👨💼 Technical Committee Chairman Masakuni Yamamoto also said, “We want to be ready to move before the game against the Netherlands.” ⚠️ Sometimes, like Kaoru Mitoma, a player is excluded from selection due to an injury right before the announcement. 💔 At the last Qatar tournament, defender Yuta Nakayama withdrew at the last minute due to an Achilles tendon injury. 🔄 At that time, FW Shuto Machino was called up as a substitute. 🩺 Among the 26 players this time, there are many players who are still recovering, such as Wataru Endo, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Yuito Suzuki. 🧠 That’s why it is necessary to anticipate unexpected situations. 💪 All backup members are talented. 👬 Kaishu Sano’s younger brother, Kodai, played in all 34 games in the Dutch first division. 🔄 Moreover, he is polyvalent and can play multiple positions. ⭐ Yuki Soma is a member of the 22nd year tournament. He was delayed due to injury, but is recovering. 🤝Although Takumi Minamino was unable to make it to the tournament due to injury, he accompanied the event as a supporter and mentor. 🧩 Aiming for victory with “Japan as a whole that surpasses the limit of 26 people”. 📖 World Cup substitution rules: OK up to 24 hours before the first match. 📋 Backups will be selected from a preliminary registration list of 35-55 people with a deadline of the 11th. 🥅 There is a special exception where GK can be replaced during the tournament. 📜 Past example: 2006 Germany tournament → Teruyuki Moniba was called up from Hawaii due to an injury to DF Makoto Tanaka. 📜 2010 South Africa Tournament → Shinji Kagawa, who was rejected, accompanied the team. 📜 2018 Russia Tournament → Yosuke Ideguchi and Takuma Asano will be together until the first match. 📜 Qatar 2022 → Shuto Machino will replace Yuta Nakayama. ✅ And this time, it has been officially decided that Takumi Minamino will be accompanying him. 🤝 Coordination with Monaco has also been completed. ✈️ We aim to meet up at our base camp in Nashville. 🩺 We are also coordinating the dispatch of medical staff specifically for Minamino. 🧱 The Japanese national team now has a strong structure of 26 + 10 players. 🔄 Even in the unlikely event that someone leaves, you can quickly supplement your strength. 🏋️ Backup players maintain their condition so they can be called up at any time. ⛔ It’s been tough with virtually no days off until June 13th. 🙏 Still, he readily agrees because he wants to see the best scenery as a representative of Japan. ❤️ It was only possible because of Director Moriyasu’s human skills and trust. 📈 There are many cases where people with past backup experience become the main players in the next tournament. 🌟 Shinji Kagawa is a representative example of this. 🚀 We might find a future ace among these 10 people. ⚠️ Many of the 26 players are still recovering. 🔑 Wataru Endo, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Yuito Suzuki. Their condition is key. 🎯 A backup is not just a backup. It’s a winning strategy. 🧠 Minamino’s decision to play the role of mentor is also a big decision. 💬 Even if he can’t practice, his presence in the locker room is immeasurable. 🩺 The dispatch of medical staff exclusively for Minamino was exceptionally generous. ✈️ Backup members can join at any time in time for the opening. 🧳 Follow Japan’s instructions immediately after the season ends. 🙇 It’s a really humbling attitude. 🔥 Yuki Soma (previous tournament experience). 🛡️ Tomoya Ando (growing in the German second division). ⚡ Kodai Sano (full participation in Dutch first division + polyvalent). 🧾 The preliminary registration list is 55 people. 🎯 We are determined to face the World Cup with all-out efforts. 🧠 Director Moriyasu’s decision not to make an official announcement is to avoid putting unnecessary pressure on him. 🤝 Each club readily agreed to cooperate. 🌍 This is world standard preparation. 📜 The culmination of Japanese soccer history. 🎉 All fans can do is believe and support. ⏳ Opening date is June 11th. Changes may be made up to 24 hours before the first match. 😤 I can’t get enough of 10 backup people. 👏 I would like to pay tribute to their dedication. 🌸 A new history of Japan is about to begin. 🤝 Bonds between 26 people and 10 people. 🌎 Large flowers bloom in the land of North and Central America. ✨ Minamino is the best mentor. 🛫 Complete support system. 🥅 The goal is to win. 🎌 All of Japan is pushing forward. 👀 I can’t take my eyes off you!
