Coach Sato
"Let's not ease the pressure in the second half. Let's shoot even from the middle in our attacks."
Shoots can change the course of the game, so let's be proactive with shots from the middle range. Let's also focus on set plays both in attack and defense and concentrate until the end.

【Second half】
In the 48th minute of the start, Rui YOKOYAMA takes a middle shot when he sees the opponent's goalkeeper positioning himself forward.
The opponent GK barely deflected this, but it shows determination.
However, in the 50th minute, they allowed the opponent to equalize from a corner kick on the left and take the lead.
The game starts with the opponent taking the initiative, but in the 54th minute, the ball is passed from Shinohara to Okanote on the right side, who then makes a vertical run and crosses it to the center.

Okaniwa on the right side and Arakawa on the left side initiate side attacks, but they are unable to shoot due to the opponent's desperate defense.
