Tsuyoshi WATANABE
(How did you approach today's match?)
"Just like last season, Tosu is a team that fights."
"Regarding defense, there is a common understanding within the team, so we entered the pitch with the intention of expressing that as a team."

(What I felt after the game)
"I think that losing to the opponent in second balls and duels resulted in today's outcome."

(The team had kept a clean sheet for two consecutive matches, but today they conceded a large number of goals. How should we analyze the cause?)
"Each player was individually beaten by the opponent."
I couldn't stop myself at the point where I had to stop.
Today, Tosu is overall surpassing Tokyo, and it is reflected in today's score.
"We need to accept that and switch gears for the next two-day Urawa match."

(The opponent had been playing brilliantly, but the part that we lacked was)
"Fatigue is not an excuse, as every team experiences it."
The 11 players chosen by the coach must fight more, and I think they are chosen because they can do it. Overall, the spirit was lacking. We intended to seriously go for the win as a team, but we were surpassed by the opponent.

《Kashif BANGNAGANDE》
(How did you feel about your first appearance in J1?)
"I have been on the team's roster several times this season, but I haven't had many opportunities to play. In such a situation, I approached today's match with the goal of contributing to the team's victory. I wanted to give my all and showcase my skills."

(Looking back on the match)
"Since the result is everything, I think today's match was a complete defeat."

(Self-reflection)
"There was a period of time during the game where I couldn't choose the option to move forward even when I had the ball, and there were parts where the aggressiveness did not last until the end."
"There were many challenges in the game, including a lack of coordination in the defense line and conceding goals while unable to move forward."

(Regarding defensive coordination)
"The scene of the second goal was due to my poor pressure and I should have defended while erasing the course firmly. If I had done that, I don't think we would have conceded that goal. My mistake caused the goal."

(Looking ahead)
"We can't afford to look down as we have a series of consecutive matches ahead."
"Since we have consecutive away matches, we need to switch gears and prepare for the match against Urawa three days later."

"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"I think Tosu was superior in all aspects today."
"In that sense, today was a complete defeat."

(There were several scoring opportunities on the offensive side, but the factor that prevented us from scoring was)
I think it was because the Tosu defense put their bodies on the line with passionate plays in the final moments and reduced the accuracy of our shots.
On the contrary, Tosu's three goals were fantastic.
I think the opening goal and the third goal were shots that couldn't be taken no matter what.
"Moreover, in the process leading up to that point, a starting point was created, and we ended up losing one-on-one and allowing a shooting opportunity."

(How would you rate today's defense?)
"Today, both Morishige and Ogawa were absent, but I think we will continue to see such games in the future."
I believe that it is not about who, but that it should be covered by the entire team.
In that sense, I think both Joan OUMARI, who played today, and Yoshifu KASHI, did well. I also think Tsuyoshi WATANABE and Nakamura fought well. However, as I mentioned earlier, I think Tosu was superior in all aspects.

(Expectations for Kashif BANGNAGANDE in the future?)
"There was a moment in the second goal scene where there was an opening in Kashif BANGNAGANDE's area."
I think this experience is a great lesson. I hope you become an even greater player.

"Summary of Tosu Manager Myung Hwi KIM's Press Conference"
"I think the players showed their determination and played well. In short, there have been many human errors and careless mistakes in the past few games, but today the players were focused and performed well."
The game so far has been good, so I think we can concentrate and play a good game that will lead to the next one. However, this is not a satisfactory number of points or wins, so the next game becomes important. It will also be against a strong opponent, so I want to prepare well, recover, and continue to do our best."

(I think there was a way to move the ball without allowing Tokyo's vertical speed, and there was a good reaction after losing it.)
"I think it is a very difficult task for any team to keep Tokyo from scoring. Because they have powerful and fast forwards. It becomes a difficult situation if we let the defensive line drop too much, so everyone had the courage to compact the line and prepare for the opponent's strengths, such as feeding the ball behind or exploiting spaces."

(For the next match)
"It's not just against Yokohama FM that we are losing, but it's frustrating to lose against any opponent, and we are fighting with the desire to win every single match. I feel sorry for the fans and supporters that we haven't been able to win."
