Homare Sawa himself was shortlisted in 2005, but so far, no Asian player (male or female) has won FIFA Player of the Year.

"Sankei Shimbun" has entered the atmosphere of celebration in advance, and optimistically declared: "homare sawa will face a wave of awards.
After returning to Japan after qualifying for the London Olympic Games, head coach Zefu Sasaki renewed his contract with the Japanese Football Association until the end of next year's Olympic Games. Homare sawa's Kobe INAC team is at its peak in the Japanese league, attracting as many as 30,000 spectators in a single game, and also taking the lead in the Japanese women's league.

Women's football craze has swept Japan. 10 10 On October 25th, the Japanese women's football team received the American Express Gold Credit Card presented by the Japanese credit card giant "Saison" on the day when FIFA announced the world's best finalist award of the year. Lin, president of the company, praised the performance of the Japanese women's football team in the World Cup in Germany as "the most exciting sports memory in life and must be supported in some way". In the future, the company will set up a "women's football fund" for the Japanese women's football team by collecting money from credit card users, so that the women's football team can hit the gold medal in the London Olympic Games. Sasaki responded: "In order to get a medal in the same color as the card in London.
Homare sawa is regarded as the greatest player in the history of Japanese women's football. Considering the great progress made by Japanese women's football team in the World Cup in Germany, as the captain and midfielder of Japanese women's football team, homare sawa's five goals and leading role were impressive. At the age of 33, she is very hopeful to become the first Miss World Football in Asia. However, there is still a powerful obstacle in front of Homare Sava: Brazilian player Marta. Although the Brazilian women's football team stopped at the 1/4 final (lost to the United States), Marta still scored four goals and her personal performance was still eye-catching. Moreover, her reputation of being elected Miss World five times in a row in the past five years can also earn her impression points. Fame factors will affect the votes of women's national team captain, coach and media judges.
