No matter what formation he plays with, 31-year-old striker Osako (Werder Bremen) is always trusted by coach Hajime Moriyasu.The highest ranked player in the Japanese national team's attack. This player has scored 5 goals against Myanmar, 3 goals against Mongolia and recently scored 1 goal against the Chinese national team.

The player currently playing in Bundesliga 2 has played for the national team since 2011, and has scored 24 goals in 56 matches. This striker has also joined the European football field since 2013, starting from 1860 Munchen Club, then FC Cologne and Werder Bremen. Last season, he was loaned to Vissel Kobe to play in J1-League. At Werder Bremen, currently ranked 10th out of 18 teams playing in Bundesliga 2, player Osako wears the number 8 shirt, playing in midfield in a 4-1-4-1 formation. With a height of only 1.82m, coach M.Anfang has arranged a suitable position for this Japanese player.

Coach Hajime Moriyasuare looking for new faces to play as a satellite for this number 15 striker.

Talented before age

Striker Minamino (Liverpool) is younger, only 26 years old, but has been a member of the Japanese national team since 2011, starting from Japan U17. Like Osako, the player of Cezero Osaka Club joined Salzburg to play in the Bundesliga since 2014 when he was only 19 years old. This also partly shows Minamino's professional ability, not many Asian players have this honor. Minamino is one of the few Japanese players to score 10 goals or more in 2 consecutive seasons.

After 6 seasons playing for Salzburg in the Bundesliga, this player moved to Liverpool, and Southampton (on loan) in the Premier League. Last year, the player wearing the Southampton shirt scored against Chelsea, which was the opening goal of the 1-0 (1-1 draw). Only 26 years old but with 9 seasons in 2 major European championships, Minamino has shown that he is a top striker of the Japanese team. In the Japanese national team, striker Minamino plays on the left and often actively holds the ball to attract the opposing defenders so that his senior Osako can score.

Having scored 18 of the total 51 goals for the Japanese team, the duo Minamino and Osako were closely watched by opponents in the third qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup in Asia. Opposing defenders surrounded the two Japanese strikers, separating them from their teammates relatively successfully, which made Japan lack goals.

Certainly, Coach Hajime Moriyasuwill bring this "double-barreled cannon" to Vietnam and take to the field. Minamino and Osako are top-class strikers, that's something we have to admit. Facing such players, Que Ngoc Hai and his teammates will have a very interesting experience on the field.
