Kensuke NAGAI
(Looking back at the goal scene)
"I saw a clear shooting path, so I decided to swing my leg and aim for the goal."

(It was a game where the members were changed in consecutive battles)
"Since we were on a losing streak, we decided to take a bold approach and let the players who haven't played yet bring momentum to the team. We approached today's game with the intention of making the team win again. It's good that we were able to take 3 points."

(There were times when the first half penalty kicks didn't go in, but I didn't feel down)
"Everyone was positive, and even if we missed, there was a good atmosphere of creating another chance together with encouraging words."
In the second half, I had a feeling that chances would come again.

(The goal scene was a pass from Leandro)
"Leandro gave me a simple pass, so I was able to score and it was good."

(Is this the result of our practice?)
"I have been working on this in practice for a long time, and I was able to show it today. I felt that daily practice is very important."

"Rio OMORI"
(Although it was my debut for the top team)
"Everyone gave their all from the bench while watching the game."
I am very grateful to have been given the opportunity to participate in a tense situation.
Even after coming on as a substitute, everyone was tired, but they still cheered me on and supported me.
I realized once again that there are many things I have to do to catch up with everyone. I'm glad I was able to participate in the cup competition this time, but I think it's meaningless if I don't get involved in the league matches as well, so I want to continue building up as I have been so far."

(What are the instructions from the coach?)
"He wanted us to play with clarity considering the game situation, and he encouraged us to come out and give it our all, so we were able to get into the game smoothly."

(How do you want to connect this experience to the future?)
"It took more time to participate in the game than I had expected after being promoted to the top, but I am once again realizing the difficulty and sense of responsibility of playing in a match."
"I want to become a player who can fight more without wasting the experience of this match."

"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"It was a very difficult match, but we managed to secure 3 points by combining our efforts as a team."
In the past few matches, there has been a slightly negative flow in the league, and it was a difficult game due to a tough schedule away against Oita. We were able to start the previous match well, but the intensity dropped.
Today, we entered the game after discussing the importance of everyone giving their all until the very end.
Hiroshi OMORI also made his first appearance in the top team and did a great job at the end.
Among the players who were absent due to injury, there are also players who have returned. With young talents emerging as new forces, we want to continue to do our best in the league matches this weekend.

"Summary of Oita Tomohiro Katanosaka Coach's Press Conference"
"Amidst a losing streak in the league, we approached the Levain Cup at home with a strong desire to stop the losing streak."
The result was a 0-1 loss, with no goals scored, so it's natural to feel disappointed when looking at the score and outcome alone. However, in the match against Tokyo, there were players who started for the first time in a while, as well as players who rarely get a chance to play. They took on the challenge with members who had been away from the league for a while, and in terms of content, I personally think they played a very good game.
A good game is a fast-paced team that fights hard and tough in Tokyo.
We also challenged without giving up against it, and fought without giving up in the attitude of aiming for a goal until the end even when we fell behind. Such an attitude is important, not just the tactics we have built up, as I mentioned, and they expressed it on the pitch.
I believe that by continuing to prepare well and face the things we should do, including the members who were not present today, we can definitely break this trend, score goals, and achieve victory. Let's believe in the players and believe in our way of fighting, and make it a game.
The result of this losing streak is also my own responsibility.
However, even though the players are losing, they are really trying their best to win and score in this week's training and today's game.
I am grateful to the players and I want to continue to prepare well for the next one without losing that attitude.
I think the next away game against Urawa will also be a difficult match, but I want to do my best to earn points somehow."
