"This is a good opportunity to get together with many of our domestic-based players and begin to instill some of the ideas that will be the foundation of our work together,” said Bradley. "This is the beginning of a long process of preparing for Olympic qualifying, and we’re fortunate to get a couple of quality matches in Japan as we get started.”
