In the international friendly match, the Japanese team lost to the United States 0-2. In this game, Japanese mixed-race midfielder Joru Fujita started and was replaced in the 62nd minute.

According to Japanese media "Gekisaka", Fujita Joru Kima accepted an interview to summarize the game. He said: "After getting the chance to score, although I wanted to help the team achieve success, I still failed to do it in the end. I was very upset about this. On the defensive end, the opponent's midfielder retreated a little deeper, but we failed to follow up in time and seize the space to create more opportunities, so we tasted the pain in the first half. The opponent interfered with us during the offense, which also made it difficult for us to handle the ball at our own pace. I felt that the rhythm of the game was controlled by the opponent."

"Because we failed to show our own advantages on the court, the game did not start at our own pace, which also made the game difficult. The opponent No. 4 player (Note: midfielder Taylor Adams who played for Bournemouth) played more easily than me, and I felt that I was not as good as him this time. This time I failed to show my strength and should work harder after returning to the Bundesliga."
