FIFA World Cup 2026. The Japanese national team practiced in preparation for the match against Brazil. Moriyasu Japan, who have decided to advance to the final tournament, practiced at their base camp overnight. Takefusa Kubo, who is aiming to make a comeback from a left knee injury, made adjustments on this day as well with a different menu, including running. The next match will be against five-time tournament champion Brazil. Expectations will be placed on Tomiyasu as the key to the defense in order to hold back the powerful attacking team. Takehiro Tomiyasu (27) “(Q. About our opponent Brazil) It’s definitely a strong team, a powerful team. I think it would be good if we can keep them without conceding a goal. I don’t think it will be an easy match. We want to give everything so that we can all move on to the next stage.”
