Arsene Wenger: Futsal players must make decisions from 10 options once the ball is received. The mind works as a computer: it recalls the situation & gives the best solution. You grow so much by playing futsal because it often puts you in these situations.

This is futsal! Through-ball to the pivot, who plays to the ala, who penetrates the side and squares the ball. The pivot dummies through to the 3rd attacker, who scores. Machida's Morioka, Vinicius & Yokoe(?) From @bellyuihinaitu

AFC U-20 final Japan 3-1 Afghanistan Masterful performance by Japan's U-20s in front of a very partisan audience in Tabriz. Afghanistan had more possession but Japan was in control, with key goals on a counter (Takahashi), a corner kick (Osawa) & power play counter (Tabuchi).

Futsal - Japanese style! In Japan, you don't wear outdoor shoes in a gym. Coaches too. And after practice, you mop the floor. It doesn't matter if you're a world champion like Alberto Riquer. You mop the floor...

No way to hold back the tears... Reo Yokoe ( #9 ) & Yuta Moriya ( #3 ) have both been key players in the F.League for all 13 years - as well as Japan internationals. Both Machida players, they played their last F.League game yesterday, Yokoe's 333rd and Moriya's 329th.

Masterpiece from the overlooked master Vinicius Crepaldi @ViNi_Crepaldi , the F.League's all-time top scorer, hits a long panenka in Machida's 6-0 victory over Nagano. The Brazilian born "universale" was available to Bruno Garcia, but left out of the World Cup 16. Oh well...

The only player to win an F.League title with two different teams? Just after getting Japanese citizenship, @arthurfutsal05 is the first player to achieve this, I think? Is there anybody else?

Shimizu must have been studying his Ricardinho videos The Sumida pivot has been impressing from set pieces since coming back to Japan, but in tonight's 7-2 victory over Hokkaido he was able to show a little razzle-dazzle as well. Video: @bellyuihinaitu

Amazingly, at the age of 46, Marcelo has signed on for another year at Toulouse Metropole🇫🇷 The 2004 world champion with Spain had 12 goals to his name with Toulouse, who were in 5th place when the D1 was suspended this season. And he's still a pivot!

Japan national team supporters' group Poeira reporting that the JFA has announced that the games against Argentina have both sold out. At the Ota City General Gymnasium, that would mean over 4,000 spectators. Kick off is in about 10 hours!
