Comment of Coach BABA Motonori

I have decided to step down from my role as Japan Futsal National Team coach. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the many people who have supported me along the way. On behalf of the Japan Futsal National Team, I would like to express my sincere regret for not meeting the expectations of our fans and supporters at the AFC Futsal Asian Cup Thailand 2024™, which served as a qualifier for the FIFA Futsal World Cup Uzbekistan 2024™. I will continue to support the Japan Futsal National Team as they embark on their new journey. I will do my utmost to contribute to the development of futsal in Japan and Asia.
