[Don’t leave out Hidemasa Morita]Why does the Japanese national team need a “midfield stabilizer”? Unique value that will not waver even with the rise of Kamata and Sano. The identity of the “piece to win” that Coach Moriyasu should choose in the end to advance to the World Cup final eight.

There are only a few days left until the Japan National Team World Cup roster is announced. In the midst of intense competition in the midfield, there is one man who should be re-evaluated now. That is Hidemasa Morita. What is “awesomeness that cannot be expressed in numbers”? World-class intelligence and strength, which he continues to prove at Sporting against CL powerhouses. We will thoroughly explain why Morita is necessary, especially now that there are more young players with momentum such as Daichi Kamata and Kaishu Sano. ・The only ability that allows him to adjust his “breathing of the game” against strong opponents ・Versatility as a combination with Wataru Endo or as the starting point of a variable system ・An indomitable spirit of “I’ll do it” that overcame injuries and a drop in the rankings ・Why does he not break even against Arsenal and Paris? This is not just a tribute to accomplishments. In order to seriously advance to the World Cup stage, Japan needs the “foundation” of Hidemasa Morita. Before the fateful moment on May 15th, we unravel his current location. #Hidemasa Morita #Japan National Team #Japan Soccer National Team #World Cup 2026 #Sporting #Hajime Moriyasu #Wataru Endo #Daichi Kamata #Kaishu Sano #Overseas reaction #TNBP Sports
