It has rich natural resources – arable land, forestry, minerals, natural gas, freshwater and marine resources, and is a leading source of gems and jade.

  • Il Vostro Giornale - 1 / 3 - 30.09.2021 2
    1 La nuova onda del Giappone di Redazione 28 Giugno 2020 – 9:05 Dalla terra dei Samurai, che grazie al suo senso dell’organizzazione ed al suo coraggio sta gradatamente uscendo dall’emergenza Covid-19, giungono sensazionali notizie in campo calcistico. Con Minamino e Kubo, Doan e Abe, il Giappone sta esportando talento come non succedeva dai tempi di Nakata, Nakamura e Kagawa. A questi punti pare lecito chiedersi: “Riuscirà, entro Qatar 2022, a essere finalmente competitivo?”. Se dobbiamo cercare un momento simbolico, potrebbe essere il 2 ottobre 2019, al 56° minuto di un incontro di Champions League ad Anfield, quandoTakumi Minamino (95) segna con un superbo tiro al volo la rete che rimette in gara il Salisburgo. È tutta la partita che questo semisconosciuto 24enne giapponese fa letteralmente impazzire la retroguardia rossa, inserendosi negli spazi in rapidità. Pochi minuti dopo, agendo proprio così servirà ad Haaland l’assist del 3-3. Un paio di mesi ancora, e il Liverpool comunicherà il suo acquisto. Minamino è il primo giapponese dei Reds ma non è certo il primo in Europa. Qualunque Millennial è cresciuto, calcisticamente, guardando Hidetoshi Nakata da Perugia a Firenze: il suo estro, i capelli a spazzola colorati, lo storico gol alla Juventus che ipoteca lo scudetto per la Roma. Oppure guardando Shunsuke Nakamura, il maestro delle Il Vostro Giornale - 1 / 3 - 30.09.2021 2 punizioni che brilla alla Reggina e poi incanta (a tratti) la Scozia e l’Europa con la maglia del Celtic.

While Japan certainly possess talented players and have not missed a World Cup since their 1998 debut, they consistently underwhelm once they arrive at the big show. This summer may not be any different for them, especially given the turmoil in terms of the now former head coach Vahid Halilhodzic being sacked one month ago.
