The Japanese coach is wary of the Chinese team: Ivankovic is building a strong team
After unveiling the latest national team roster, Japanese coach Kazuichi Mori expressed his wariness towards the Chinese team. He said: "The Chinese team is a team worthy of vigilance, and the Japanese team cannot be taken lightly."
Mori spoke highly of China coach Ivankovic, saying he was building a strong team. "Coach Ivankovic has done a very good job in building a new team since coaching the Chinese men's team," he said. "They are strong and experienced. I was very impressed when Ivankovic played our first match as coach of the Oman national team in the last qualifiers."

Mori revealed that the Japanese team has analysed the Chinese team and will be fully prepared. "I think this time they will also challenge us by analyzing us," he said. "Both tactically and psychologically, we must be ready to defeat them. The Chinese team has many high-potential players and under the leadership of coach Ivankovic, they are improving their strength."

Mr. Mori's caution reflects the importance Japan attaches to China, which was beaten by Ivankovic's Oman team in the first group stage of the last World Cup preliminaries. As a result, Japan will not look down on China and will give it its all.
