【Player/Coach Comments】
"Masato MORISHIGE Player"
"I thought we would be able to score at some point because we had some attacking opportunities in the second half. Also, I felt it was important to keep the backline secure and play simple."
I haven't been able to score in the last two matches, but I have experienced such periods before. It is important not to concede goals in such times."
(The match-up with the opponent's FW was a heated battle)
"I want to be in a better position than my opponent and it is my role to not let the opponent's FW do their job. The defensive line was able to respond firmly with players Muroya, Watanabe, and Jae Suk OH."
I think we were able to maintain a stable defense by attacking on both sides and working hard in defense.
(Among scenes of receiving counters and attacking on the contrary, regarding the fact that it was 0-0)
"Ending without conceding a goal is the minimum result."
There have been many games with this kind of development so far, and the defense line needs to consider whether it can end with zero.
I think this one point will have a big impact in the future.
When it comes to scoring goals, it is the most difficult part of football. We can work on the task together again, so let's work on it as a team without hesitation against clear tasks. Until then, I want the defense line to maintain concentration like today and support the attacking unit."
(Could you hear the cheers of the fans and supporters?)
"It was an amazing support. When I see the fans and supporters away from home, it gives me courage and fills me with energy."
Kento HASHIMOTO
(It was difficult to balance as a defensive midfielder with both teams having chances)
"We had a long period of pressure and had chances, but the opponent also came to score from counterattacks. In that situation, I was playing while managing risks and consciously supplying passes behind the opponent. The opponent had a few big chances, but the whole team was able to defend."
(There were also scenes where the opponent's header hit the post)
I think that scene, too, was a result of the whole team throwing their bodies to defend and not allowing the goal to be broken.
All team members have a strong determination not to concede goals and are able to play. From now on, we want to think about how to connect from persistent defense to scoring goals."
(While it is difficult to evaluate a single point in the late stages of the season),
"Honestly, it was a frustrating game and we needed to win. Every game is tough and I always feel that there are no easy games."
However, I think that today's game was able to showcase our own style of soccer, and the result of not conceding any goals will lead to the next match. The only thing left is to score.
"From practice, we want to improve the quality of each play and continue to prepare."
(Today, the away 8-game series has reached its halfway point. I think we can feel the difficulty)
"It is difficult to win away games. While the results have not been forthcoming, I believe we have been able to showcase our style of football that we have built up until now. We want to earn 3 points as soon as possible, but I think what is currently required is how we can connect this situation to results."
(Chance can be created, but goals cannot be scored)
I think we can create chances, but we are not able to create many big chances. I want to increase the accuracy of the final pass and create more opportunities to aim for goal with determination.
This season, there have been matches where we have picked up 3 points despite having few chances. I think there is definitely some luck involved, so it is important to continue.
"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"I wanted to respond to the support and cheers from the many fans and supporters who came from Tokyo. They were giving us a lot of encouragement even before the game started."
The players fought well towards the Matsumoto goal for 90 minutes. It was difficult to score a goal. Regarding scoring, we will continue to think and work on it while considering the condition. I don't think getting 1 point away is a bad result, so let's aim for 3 points without being pessimistic and move on to the next match. The stadium in Tosu for the next match is a very difficult place, but I want to have a tough game and compete."
(It was a stance of securing 1 point, but firmly defending)
"Rather than fearing conceding goals and defending 1 point, the desire was to score points no matter what. The players played with the intention of recovering even if they were scored against. Today, Matsumoto's players fought well and fought with their emotions despite the changes in the lineup."
I don't think we were able to break them down in a good way. We can't win if we don't score points, so I want to give the team the stimulus to be able to score.
(There is also an impression of fighting on the opponent's dohyo. It was difficult to break the spaceless areas)
"Originally, Matsumoto should have slid on both sides and come to the defense aggressively. However, today there was an instruction from Coach Antoku to not go too much and try to eliminate the space."
Today, we used Hikaru MITA, but we need to work harder to penetrate the opponent's back even without space. In the second half, the defensive midfielder joined the attack and we were able to create some close opportunities. We need to push even harder.
However, it is difficult to play at Alwin Stadium. It is not a stadium where we can easily take points. The players are also fighting with power, so there is no choice but to switch and move on today."
"Summary of Matsumoto and Yasuharu Sorimachi's Coach Interview"
"We have to win 3 points, that's the same for any opponent."
I have prepared by working backwards from that point. I have prepared knowing that it will be a difficult game as I am currently at the top of Japan. I think I did well until the final whistle.
I think it's more like we have the smell of scoring goals, not the others. Of course, Tokyo has the ability to break through individually and has speed and decisiveness. Among them, it is a harvest to be able to keep the goals conceded to zero, and it is a little disappointing that the goals were zero in reverse. However, I think it was a game that leads to the next one."
(Although we created several decisive moments, we were unable to score goals in the end)
"There were several opportunities to create a numerical advantage, but at that time we dropped the ball, couldn't make the best choice due to impatience, and there were such situations in both the first and second halves."
Training for attacking in a wide space is something we have to start doing. I think we were able to show our strengths in attack, such as the driving force forward and the dynamism of the front line.
