Japanese national team player Ritsu Doan updated his social media on July 26 (Beijing time), discussing his goal of winning the World Cup.
Doan Ritsu wrote:
Personally, I have no other goal in the World Cup than to win it.
I understand that some people believe we should set more realistic goals.
But when I returned to Japan, the most common expectation I heard was, "Please win the championship next time!"
No one ever told me they hoped we would make it to the quarterfinals.
I believe that his all-out effort to win the championship touched many fans.
Whether a goal is appropriate can only be judged by the results.
My sole focus will be on winning the championship!
