Back to 2002 FIFA World Cup, my home town MATSUMOTO, Nagano was chosen for Paraguay national team training camp base.

Whole town was so ecited to see the world famous best players. GK at the time Chilavert visited my middle school to practice with school soccer team. Still Matsumotors root Paraguay team!
