It's fine, just as long as they don't pull out of Copa Cabana.

"But JFA technical director Hiromi Hara returned from Europe on Monday, saying that while the clubs sympathize with Japan, they could not release their players for what is a non-competitive tournament for the Asian champions."
Rightfully so. It would be more fun and more competitive to have Japan there with the SAmerican teams, but such is life -- for a meeting with no importance I can understand why they wouldn't want to let the players go and risk injury (for which they would still have to pay contracts).
