Japan manager Hajime Moriyasu named Gamba's Genta Miura in his squad, as he has done often in his reign, but the bigger news for the home fans was the return of Yosuke Ideguchi to the Samurai Blue ranks.
Ideguchi returned the Gamba fold after a disappointing, injury-ridden sojourn overseas and has settled back into the team's midfield as if he'd never been away. His performances have no earned him a Japan call up, and Gamba fans can look forward to seeing him in action on Tuesday night.
