After completing training on September 27 local time, Japanese international Ayumu Seko spoke to Japanese media.

"I am always ready to play and approach every game with the mindset of fulfilling my role when given the chance."

"I just brought what I normally do at my club to this team. In the first match after the World Cup, I felt I performed well, and I hope to continue that."

"It's not because of the World Cup; competition is essential. My competitive mindset hasn't changed since I was selected for the national team."

"As a defender, I want to keep a clean sheet in every game. Looking at the result against Uruguay, it was 3-1, and we conceded one goal. As a defender, if we can keep a clean sheet, that would be a good evaluation. Regardless of whether it's a friendly match or not, we must achieve that."
