Although it was a journey after the morning practice on the 25th, the players did not show any signs of fatigue, having experienced long-distance travel many times before. After arriving at the hotel, they had a late dinner and prepared for the practice on the 26th.

Practice on the 26th was held at 4 PM local time (5 PM Japan time). The practice ground that was originally scheduled was being drained due to rain, so it was moved to another ground.

The players changed at the stadium where the match would be held and walked to the practice ground. Before practice started, they each warmed up. Some players stretched, some played a juggling game, and others checked the feel of the turf.

The training menu from 4 PM included pass & control, possession training, and attacking drills. It was intermittently raining lightly, and the humidity was high, leaving the players drenched in sweat, but the occasional cool breeze helped alleviate the discomfort.
