Blueprint of Victory: Japan’s Long Game to Build a World Cup Champion

What does it really take to build a football powerhouse not through luck or money, but through patience, vision, and decades of discipline? Blueprint of Victory follows Japan’s hundred-year quest to rise from a global outsider to a benchmark of sustained football excellence.

Blending history, strategy, and cultural insight, it traces how Japan made football a national project anchored in education, data, coaching reform, and shared purpose. From the birth of the J.League and the 2002 World Cup to today’s embrace of analytics and worldwide collaboration, Japan’s evolution shows how progress on the pitch reflects progress in society.

Beyond scores and superstars, this book asks a deeper question: what happens when a nation turns its sport into a reflection of its values, patience, and pursuit of perfection? In the end, greatness isn’t discovered. It’s designed.
