🇯🇵 Moriyasu Japan has finally arrived in Nashville, USA! ✈️🇺🇸 🏕️ This is our base camp location. 👀 As the players boarded the train one after another, one figure caught the eye… ✨ Midfielder Takumi Minamino, who was called up as a support member, joined the team! 😆 The one who welcomed his arrival more happily than anyone else was Yuto Nagatomo, the oldest defender! 🗣️ Nagatomo’s first laugh was: “Oh no, the heavyweights have gathered together again. It definitely gets me excited!” 🧘♂️ “Just looking at him gets me excited. It’s like a power spot (lol)” 😂 “I think he’s starting to look a little like me. He might not like it though.” 💥 Nagatomo continues: “The moment I met him, I realized why Moriyasu-san needed him even though he was injured.” 👏 He was amazed at the director’s decision. 💬 “I told him personally that I get excited when I meet you!” 🎯 He named Minamino a “walking power spot.” “I make the people I meet feel more energetic. That’s how much I improve.” ⚽ Moriyasu Japan resumes training in Nashville from this day. 📈 Captain Wataru Endo also participated in some. 🔥 Gearing up quickly for the first match against the Netherlands (6 days later)! 🎙️ Nagatomo, in an interview after practice: “I feel like he’s getting a lot of attention. I think people are looking forward to the popularity of the Japanese national team and the enthusiasm for the World Cup.” 🤝 What Nagatomo felt about Minamino’s joining: “It means that he was also called up as a support member. It’s not just his technique. It’s his energy that brightens people up.” 😄 His smiles and calls off the pitch bring the team a perfect balance of relaxation and tension. 🌀 “It’s because I don’t realize it that I’m natural. That’s what saves me.” 🧡 Nagatomo himself has been the team’s mood maker for many years. When he says, “Me and Minamino are starting to look alike,” there is a sense of passing on the baton. 🎥 The moment they met captured by a local camera: People naturally gathered around Minamino when he arrived, and Nagatomo was the first to rush up to him. A look that says, “I’ll calm down when you come.” 🧠 Even in sports psychology, positive emotions are directly linked to improved performance. In other words, Minamino’s “power spot” is a great tactic! 🌟 “Walking power spot” Takumi Minamino 🗣️ “Putting that warmth into words” Yuto Nagatomo 👑 As long as there are two veterans, Moriyasu Japan will be fine. 🙌 I can’t take my eyes off the soccer and human traits they show. ⏳ I can’t wait for the whistle against the Netherlands! 🔚 Bonus: 🏃♂️ Nagatomo: “It’s like a power spot (lol)” 🤣 Minamino: “…Maybe you won’t like it.” ← But you’ll definitely be happy. 🇯🇵⚽ Japan representative, here we go!
