Usually I'm not posting highlights of non-Nadeshiko players, but Yuki Nagasato earning her first start for Houston Dash at Chicago Red Stars is worth mentioning.
Yuria Sasaki's Boca Juniors won Apertura Championship in Argentina with one round to spare. Ichika Egashira's River Plate still have 2 matches to play and will finish between 2nd to 4th place. (Egashira is league joint 8th top scorer with 6 goals) BOCA JRS de YURIA SASAKI se coronan CAMPEONAS DEL APERTURA 2024 !!! 🏆🇦🇷 FELICIDADES!!! https://t.co/9Nj4k8uR0u pic.twitter.com/BGGhI1PlhO— Cancha Sakura ⚽️🌸🇯🇵 (@CanchaSakura) July 7, 2024
Narumi Miura played 79 minutes, Manaka Matsukubo whole second half and scored fantastic goal for NC Courage against Racing Louisville. Judging from highlights, Manaka completely tipped the scales of this game, what a fantastic player she is!
Maybe the official account made a mistake for the timing of the release, because they deleted and replaced the content, but I think the previous announcement is sure.▶️https://t.co/EeWBeOxUZu https://t.co/MI2UHcYDBG— Wo So JAPAN (@WoSoJAPAN) July 8, 2024
KOBAYASHI Rikako is coming back! NTV Beleza signed again with Rikako Kobayashi. She will return to the team after 2 seasons. She transferred from Beleza to NC Courage in the middle of the 2021/22, but left the team after not getting a chance to play due to injury. She still has injury.https://t.co/1FKG2UDdS4— Wo So JAPAN (@WoSoJAPAN) July 8, 2024 A really unexpected move, KOBAYASHI Miharu is also coming back to Japan, from Napoli https://www.verdy.co.jp/beleza/news/13204 And finally, KIZAKI Aoi leaves Beleza and is aiming for a transfer abroad. https://www.verdy.co.jp/beleza/news/13193

It’s just an influence of foreign language due to economic, military, and/or political factors, rather than a rational, cost-benefit based, adoption of foreign words. It happened to virtually all languages, including English (German), Russian (French), etc.. Some English speakers don’t know that half of what they say is Latin and the other half German.
I think also 'elitarian' influence - using English sporting terms probably makes you look knowlegdeable and part of player/coach/fan ecosystem. I guess random housewive seeing Hinata Miyazawa for the first time would say "she is fast" in plain Japanese, am I right?
So Charli Grant, Courtney Nevin, Lydia Williams and Sharn Freier are no longer reserves and are in the Olympic squad?? pic.twitter.com/NYmmh0DG0X— Laura (@awfclaurab) July 9, 2024 I think 6 hours (before start of the match) rule to inform organizers of the change - still applies. The question is will alternates get medals or do they need clock at least some time on the pitch for this?

I wonder if she'll try to get back to playing after her injury or if she basically considered that the end of her career.
Well, it's quite reassuring that our defense can access Rion Ishikawa or Miyabi Moriya, in case of need.
Nadeshiko vs Viama Tomorrow we will finally take on Nadeshiko Japan. We are grateful to have the opportunity to play against Nadeshiko Japan at such an important time, and we will play with all our might, playing football that is characteristic of Viama. \ついに明日‼️/🗓7月10日(水) 16:00 kickoff🆚なでしこジャパン🏟高円宮記念JFA夢フィールドAピッチ(千葉県千葉市)いよいよ明日なでしこジャパンに挑みます✨大事な時期になでしこジャパンと戦えることに感謝し、ヴィアマらしいサッカーで全力で戦います‼️是非熱い応援宜しくお願いします🔥 pic.twitter.com/nUHR6Zx4XF— ヴィアマテラス宮崎【公式】 (@viamaterras2020) July 9, 2024
It could be like the game last year, Nadeshiko vs Orca, not too fierce a game to not injure the Nadeshiko players. Viama will have a chance to score a few 24 hours later when they play Vonds Ichihara in a training match. Vonds have a hectic 5 days ahead of them with training games. 11th home vs Viama 13th home vs Machida Zelvia (KLSL D2) 14th away vs Toyo Uni (10:00 ko) 14th home vs Orca (13:00 ko) 15th away vs Osa Rhea Btw, as impressive as Viama have been this and last year. Heres a comparison of the top 3 last year at the end of the season (18 games) and the top 3 this year after 17 games.
Mamiko Matsumoto (left, back the photo) has already joined the team.▶️https://t.co/FWmsaO8K1E https://t.co/rCTMo7Zism pic.twitter.com/wy3AY4sUnB— Wo So JAPAN (@WoSoJAPAN) July 10, 2024 Strange choice on first glace but on the other hand there is already sizable colony of Japanese in Mainz club - Yuuka Fukuhara, Yurina Imai and now Mamiko Matsumoto plus head coach Takashi Yamashita and his assistant Yuya Okuda.
Nadeshiko 5-0 Viama (3x30) Although we ended up losing 0-5, we were unable to score any goals, but we are very grateful to have had the opportunity to play in such a great environment against Nadeshiko Japan, and it was a great experience for us as a team! We are cheering for your success at the Paris Olympics from Miyazaki 結果は0-5と得点とれずでしたが、なでしこジャパンと対戦できるという最高の環境で試合ができたことは大変ありがたく、チームとして大きな経験となりました!パリ五輪での活躍を宮崎から応援しています📣🇯🇵応援してくださった皆様ありがとうございました!#ヴィアマテララス宮崎#なでしこジャパン pic.twitter.com/qNOYz13z8J— ヴィアマテラス宮崎【公式】 (@viamaterras2020) July 10, 2024
