The Japan Football Association announced that after returning to Japan on December 1st, the Japanese national team "Nadeshiko Japan", who had been on an expedition to the Netherlands, was sent to Japan after the infection of the new mutant virus "Omicron strain" was spreading to each country. Announced that it was necessary to wait for two weeks.

This prevented domestic players from participating in the league match this weekend.

In response to the spread of the new mutant virus "Omicron strain" to each country, the government has taken mitigation measures to shorten the waiting period at home etc. to a minimum of 3 days for Japanese returning from 1st. We are tightening the restrictions, such as canceling and returning to 14 days again.



Based on the government's response, the Japan Football Association announced that it was necessary to wait for two weeks after returning to Japan for the players and staff of "Nadeshiko Japan" who had been on an expedition to the Netherlands from November 22nd. ..



You will be quarantined for 6 days at a hotel designated by the airport quarantine station, and after the 7th day you will have to wait at your home or at a pre-arranged accommodation facility.



For this reason, the 18 players of the domestic group who participated in the expedition will not be able to participate in the women's professional league "WE League" match scheduled for the 4th.



According to the Japan Football Association, the domestic training camp for the women's national team scheduled for December will also be cancelled.
