サムライジャパンの選択–2

That's a difficult choice、I thought of Coach Nishino's ``Losing by one point is acceptable.''。The timing of the decision that “yellow cards are strictly prohibited”。probably、I don't have enough strength left to win、I think that was the underlying decision.、I imagine。

It was a bit of a push in the first half.。I definitely wanted to get the first point in order to win.、There were many very sharp attacks.。But、As soon as I let my guard down, I conceded a point.。The coach may have sensed the heat and fatigue in the players.。Force the score to be tied while keeping this score、If you aim for a reversal、In fact, I think he felt that there was a greater possibility that he would get a counter attack and end up with a two-point difference.。

Furthermore, it was crucial that the Colombia-Senegal game was played at the same time.。The strengths of Colombia and Senegal、Considering the remaining time、I "bet" on "Colombia winning by 1 point" based on "statistical judgment"。if、For some reason, the Colombia-Senegal match、If the game had started 30 minutes late...。

Aside from things like fair play.、Coach Nishino's "probability/statistical" view of soccer arouses new interest.。Coach Khalil Hollige fired just before the start of the season、The fact that we appointed the manager who boasts the most wins as a Japanese manager、西野氏がサッカー協会にもたらしたサッカー観なのかもしれない、I also think。

サムライ・ジャパンの選択

かもめ（習作）

日本-ポーランド戦、1-2の日本の負けだが、勝ってもポーランドは一次リーグ敗退決定済み、破れた日本は負け方次第で決勝トーナメント進出という、特に後半はそうした戦略が前面に出た試合となった。このような展開はあらかじめ想定されてはいたが、それでも最後の10分間に関しては、サッカーファンの心理を２分したに違いない。

スポーツマンシップを第一とする世界中のマスコミからは「もうサムライとは呼べない」「最も見たくない試合」などと酷評。on the other hand、結果を重視するファンからは「これも戦略だから当然」「他のチームも主力を休ませている」などの擁護論。どちらか一方だけが正しいと簡単には言えないが、チームは監督のものだという感を深くした。

もしこれで、次のベルギー戦で素晴らしい勝利を収めたならば、西野監督の決断は「最良」のものとなり、この試合の胸くそ悪さはファンの心から消え去るだろう。要するに「結果論」、と女子Wcupで優勝したなでしこメンバーの一人は語っている。

なでしこも準々決勝で似たような試合をし、それが優勝につながり、あの日本中のフィーバーになった。けれど「結果が全て」ということは、「フェアプレー精神」は不要だということになりかねない。勝ちさえすればいい、というのはサムライ精神に反する、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。But on the other hand、無意味な「玉砕戦法」もまた、見たくはない。

変なクセ

「森の男または萬鐵五郎礼賛」 （習作）

I noticed a strange habit。glasses frame、Habit of biting the part that covers the ear。right ear、I felt pain in the area where I put on my glasses.。As we get older, we get wrinkles.、I assumed that it was painful due to tightness.、I didn't check my glasses carefully.。

The part that goes over the ear is jagged。This must definitely hurt、How? read a book on the train、Take off your glasses when watching the news on your smartphone。When there is no chest pocket、He bites his glasses between his teeth and dangles them while reading.、That's what I thought。

In "World Cup"、I wrote about GK Kawashima's "bad habits"。This has become a (recent) bad habit of mine.。It's hard to notice your own quirks。

He also has some good habits.。While playing soccer、Supporters picking up trash after the match (is this a sense of duty?)、Japanese、It has become a hot topic in various countries as a "habit" (such as the distinction between habits and habits).、Please leave this out of the question here! )。Trying to develop good habits in children、School teachers develop various tactics。but、It seems like it's a habit of looking for clever loopholes.、seems to have completely failed。
