s captain, Sashi Kumagai, gave an exclusive interview to the media, revealing the team's ambitions.
Sashi Kumagai said firmly in the interview, "After the Tokyo Olympics, the team went through a massive roster reshuffle, which is both an opportunity and a challenge. We can't change the past, but we can keep strengthening ourselves so that the team can be competitive on the world stage. I am willing to give my all for the team."
Talking about this Asian Cup, Sashi Kumagai is full of confidence, "We will first do our best to prepare well and try to break through from the group stage to the knockout stage. Then, we will play steadily and try to realize the ambition of three consecutive championships, which is our goal and we will leave no stone unturned for that."
