[AMA Request] Junji Ogura, ex-FIFA ExCo Member and former President of the Japanese Football Association
My 5 Questions:
- Footballing/Soccer nations to the East, Japan and The Korean Republic primarily, have been seen been as a growing influence on the football world in the west, especially in Europe over the last decade or so. As the man who has been at the heart of that for as long as you have, what has been the biggest contributing factors of that?
- With the World Cup having been hosted by Japan and South Korea in 2002, what legacy has the tournament left from within the two countries?
- All things considered, how would you describe your country's bid for the 2022 World Cup? Do you feel you and your team could have performed better in your host campaign?
- What do you believe will be the fate of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar?
- As someone who is as experienced as yourself, where in the world would you like to see host a World Cup some day?
