SKOR.id - Salah satu favorit juara, Jepang, akhirnya mengumumkan skuad mereka untuk Piala Asia 2023.

Menariknya, tetap ada nama Kaoru Mitoma dalam daftar pemain yang dibawa pelatih Hajime Moriyasu

Diketahui, winger Brighton & Hove Albion itu sebelumnya diyakini bakal absen usai menderita cedera engkel cukup parah di Liga Inggris.

Tepatnya saat Brighton ditahan imbang Crystal Palace, 21 Desember lalu. Kaoru Mitoma terlihat kesakitan usai berbenturan dengan pemain lawan dan harus menggunakan pelindung kaki seusai laga.

Dia diprediksi bakal absen minimal empat pekan, yang artinya masih ada di ruang perawatan ketika Piala Asia 2023 kick-off pada 12 Januari mendatang.

Namun, itu tak menyurutkan niat Hajime Moriyasu untuk menyertakan talenta 26 tahun itu.

Padahal, tanpa Mitoma pun, Timnas Jepang sudah sangat kuat. Hampir semua pemain yang dibawa ke Piala Asia 2023 berkarier di Eropa.

Terhitung, hanya lima nama yang merumput di kompetisi Asia, empat di antaranya dari liga domestik Jepang.

Mereka adalah duo kiper Daiya Maekawa (Vissel Kobe) dan Taishi Brandon Nozawa (FC Tokyo), bek Seiya Maikuma (Cerezo Osaka), serta gelandang Kaishu Sano (Kashima Antlers).

Adapun Shogo Taniguchi bermain di Liga Qatar bersama Al-Rayyan.

Sisanya adalah para pemain yang biasa terlihat di kompetisi elite Benua Biru. 

Tak cuma Kaoru Mitoma, Timnas Jepang masih punya Wataru Endo (Liverpool), Takefusa Kubo (Real Sociedad), Takumi Minamino (AS Monaco), Takehiro Tomiyasu (Arsenal), Ritsu Doan (SC Freiburg), dan banyak lagi.

Melihat kekuatan mereka, tak heran jika Jepang difavoritkan membawa pulang gelar kelima mereka di Piala Asia tahun ini.

Bukti terdekat adalah ketika pasukan Samurai Biru membantai raksasa Asia Tenggara, Thailand, lima gol tanpa balas, Senin (1/1/2024) siang.

Itu bagai sinyal ancaman buat para rival mereka di Piala Asia 2023.

Timnas Jepang akan mengawali petualangan dari Grup D, yang juga dihuni Irak, Vietnam, dan Indonesia.
