    They are using the 2014-15 kit, so is must have been The Algarve Cup match of 2014

    Yes, I had pointed out the most glaring difference, the empty stadium, but of course there are also these other details you mention making clear that it couldn't have been the 2013 match.
    By the way: yesterday I had dinner in a Japanese restaurant here in Milan, and I had a ramen soup almost as good as the one we tasted that evening of 2013 in Munich, @#5nadeshikofan! :)

    Thanks for confirming our convinction, @zaku_II! In fact, this was the kit with the fluo "pikachu" secondary kit and I seemed to remember that we had played in that shade of yellow the first match of that Algarve Cup 2014, vs Sweden.
    It was one of the best Algarve Cup we had, and, although we lost by 3-0 that final match vs Germany, we should have scored in first half, when a ball had passed the line, but the goal wasn't allowed, because referee's and lineswoman's views were covered by the bodies of the players.

    Oh, I was almost forgetting: where the Germany-Japan friendly in April will be played? Does anyone know?

    Very happy for her and I wish her to keep up with her career for long! :)

    She probably has 0% chances to make the WWC roster, I wonder anyway if she will wear the NT jersey again in the future.

    I don't think so: we have the members of the training camp that will take place this week, posted by unepomme earlier this month, but this is about one month from SheBelieves Cup. Of course, Takakura will surely consider indications from this training camp to finalize the roster for SB Cup, but she could also consider some different names (although it's difficult to do that until Nadeshiko Japan's season is on break: the only way she could change her mind would be calling some of the missing internationals who are currently active with their clubs: for instance, I surely expect Kumagai to be called for SB Cup; Others? Kawasumi? Naomoto? Nagasato? :cautious:).

    Utsugi is already included in this week's camp: I was talking about players who weren't called for it.

    We still have some veteran players left from the 2011 team,
    who haven't retired yet: Iwashimizu, Kinga, Kawasumi, Ohno, Nagasato.
    Of course, all of them are still great, but with age you are going to lose some physical strength (and other things like speed, endurance, agility, etc.).
    To me it looks like only Iwashimizu and Nagasato are still in their prime,
    so in terms of building a very strong team for the World Cup, i would think
    about those two players.

    Other than that, we also have some talented u20 players left, who are currently not
    included into the A-team like: Stambaugh, Miyagawa, Hayashi, Fukuta, Takarada.
    So maybe one of them can convince Takakura at the last moment?

    He says how he decided to undertake the Nadeshiko coach job and the joyful days of that.
    The title says that one day a player complained to him that Beleza players had not given her any passes with crying.:D

    Then I have a quize.
    Who do you guess this player is?:)

    And he also says why he made Sawa change her position from AMF to DMF.
    It's because she was not good at turning forward after she received the ball so that often quickly chose back passes but she had very strong defencive technique and could go forward from that position.

    I can't guess, because I have already read the article (although through awful Google translation), but I guess everyone of us on this thread can answer this one! :D

    Hint: she kept complaining that people didn't pass the ball to her for very long! ;):giggle:

    Yukari Kinga missed a penalty, yesterday, in a match vs Sydney FC, but made up for that in Second Half by taking part to the action of the first of the two goals her team scored. With this 2-0 win, Melbourne City actually caught up with Sydney in the rankings and they could now grab that elusive 4th place that would lead them to play-off (probably by pushing away Sydney themselves).
    Highlights: https://www.w-league.com.au/match/s...rne-city-fc-women-w-league-31-01-2019/1022500

    Meanwhile, Nagasato's Brisbane Roar lost today by 1-0 to Adelaide but this doesn't seem to put their play-off chances in danger, since they anyway retain 2nd place in the rankings. Interestingly, Yuki missed a penalty also! :eek: Did they decide it was Japanese-player-missing-penalty-official-matchday? o_O
