Window does start 21st Sept.
Ecuador enroute to Japan are dropping into Seoul for a friendly 25th Sept, against Sth Korea. Sth Koreans then play Uruguay 29th Sept.
Looks like pre the Kirin Cup tourney, Japan are hosting Uruguay 24th Sept and then Venezuela 28th Sept.
Limited options with most other countries in our part of the world occupied already.
FIFA ASEAN Cup in that window, plus Asian Games (in Japan) that likes of China & Nth Korea are playing football in. Though looks like the later is mostly an U23 tourney like the Olympics. So yeah a game in China could maybe squeezed in??
But it's been a big year for AWs players with the WC and all the prep prior. You can see why Baze & co would be happy with just the 4 more games this year. With you suspect a large amount of rotation between the Sept-Oct window and November (ALM heavy selection?).
