Takashi Usa: I had hoped that the team would continue to attack The captain conveyed the backward tactics

According to the Japanese media "Football Zone" reported on June 29, although the Japanese team won the qualifying after the match of 1-0 defeat to Poland, the passive foot-down tactics in the final stage of the game still caused a lot of controversy, and Usami Takashi, who started in the game and was replaced in the second half, also revealed everything he saw at that time.

'It was very hot and the players were tired, but if the opponent continued to play like that, it was possible to win, so it would be difficult for us to get into the knockout rounds, but after Captain Makoto Hasebe came on as a substitute, he clearly told his teammates to play like this(referring to the foot-down tactics)."

I was sitting on the bench and I said, 'What if Senegal scores a goal?' "Hurry up and attack!" "It did. Due to the atmosphere of the stadium, it was a bit difficult for the players to fully understand the coach's tactics, so captain Makoto Hasebe conveyed it after he came on the court. I also understood the coach's tactics and prayed to end the game in this way. ”
