To be honest, the bronze medal (Miyu Kato) is no compensation for the results of the other japanese players, women and especially men. We all expected more.

Regarding the Olympic Games in Tokyo 2020 our players have to deal with so much pressure from outside and of course also from inside. Maybe it is too much and we must expect similar results at the Olympic Games. But maybe the setbacks are coming at the right time and the japanes national team will be ready for Tokyo 2020.
