is a former Japanese international football (soccer) player. He was a left full back. ==Playing career== Tsunami was a product of Yomiuri Club's (current Tokyo Verdy 1969) youth system. He played for Japan Soccer League side Yomiuri Club, which was transformed to Verdy Kawasaki when J. League was founded, between 1980 and 1996. Toward the end of his career, he played for Avispa Fukuoka (1996–1997) and Bellmare Hiratsuka (1997–1998). He was capped 80 times and scored 2 goals for the Japanese national team between 1980 and 1995. He made his first international appearance on 22 December 1980 in a World Cup qualifier against Singapore in Hong Kong. He scored his first international goal on 20 September 1986 in an Asian Games match against Nepal in Daejeon, South Korea. He was a member of the Japan team that won the 1992 AFC Asian Cup. He played all the Japan games except one for which he wasn't eligible due to suspension. He was such a key player that national coach Hans Ooft named him a member of the Japan squad for the AFC's final qualifying stage for the 1994 FIFA World Cup in spite of his injury. However, he could not play any game in the competition that was centrally held in Doha, Qatar as his recovery wasn't as good as Ooft had wished it to be. Japan's hope to qualify for the finals was dashed by a stoppage time Iraqi equaliser in the last qualifying match. The Japanese fans now refer to this match as the Agony of Doha, and his absence was one of the main reasons why Japan's campaign ended up unsuccessful. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Satoshi Tsunami」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
