Japan U-17 BEATS Argentina U-17 3-1!

[TM4LIFE]

well. i understand these players might not all end up going pro. I mean to be honest we beat holland too but hey you dont see kaveh rezaei in TM right now.

[Farhad-7]

^Kaveh Rezaei just turned 19 two months ago.
The omid team that failed due to some crazy reasons also only had one or two 19 year olds as others were older like in his position, Ansarifard, Mousavi, Afshin, etc.

Let's give him a few years to see how he turns out. I still have hope for him and regarded him a better prospect for the future than Afshin and Ansarifard.

Sorry for going off-topic. Kudos to the Japanese lads.

they are getting world class experience. khosh behaleshoon. they wil be the future of their nations football in 5-10 years and they are already ahead of us.
They already planted the seed for the future world cups.

We just expect to pull a national team out of our asses without any decent youth program and go to the world cup.

Us having a semi decent national team is a miracle on its own.

The passing and the play build up starting at 6:40 is great. Our TM can't even do that.

well japanese and koreans are ahead of us, way more professional management...our system is a complete joke


also, argentina senior team, their B team lost to nigeria like 4-1 couple of weeks ago...so aside from their stars, they are not that good

koreans didn't make u-17 world cup just like iran. they drew to likes of myanmar and such in the qualification.

Teams like Qatar, Oman, Bahrain all used to do really well in these tournaments, but when it mattered (senior level) they failed.
What's important is that these players not get crushed when they make the move to non-youth leagues and can develop properly.
The Japanese and South Koreans probably can accomplish though. Japan is already quite good, they're very underrated in Europe unfortunately, but they could easily compete with the B level national teams in Europe.

That game is under investigation of FIFA as prefixed match.

not underrated any more. many famous euro clubs are after japanese players nowadays.

Nagatomo (Inter Milan)
Kagawa (Dortmund)
Usami (Bayern)
Miyaichi (Arsenal)
Uchida (Schalke 04)
Okazaki (Sttutgart)
Hasebe (Wofsburg)
Ienaga (Mallorca)
Honda (CSKA Moscow)

that doesnt mean much, they always do good in youth tournaments, do u know how many things they've won compared to us? they are professional and have a system that works, and european teams scout in their league, not ipl

Not really meaningless, that match and the loss to Poland brought down their ranking from 10 to 5
