Motoki NAGAKURA

First of all, I think it is most important to firmly utilize the issues that came up in the match against JEF United Chiba. Considering the current standings, it is an important game, and it is also the most important match for Verdy. We absolutely want to win. The fans and supporters have given a great boost toward the Verdy match, and we just have to respond to that support with our play to the fullest. I want to contribute to the team with the result of scoring goals.

Teruhito NAKAGAWA

Fight to win with a determination to the death. Just fight with a strong resolve.

Sei MUROYA

This is an important match regardless of the standings. In the previous encounter, we lost in a penalty shootout. To aim for the championship, Tokyo will be seeking only 3 points from this match. We want to move forward believing in what we have built up this season.

Player Kei Sato

(After the defeat in the previous match) we must firmly switch gears, raise our heads, and fight. We absolutely cannot lose the match against Verdy. Also, to win the league championship, we absolutely cannot drop points. That is why we must win this match. We will definitely win. We will fight with all our might.

Leon NOZAWA

My first start this season was against Verdy. It was a match we could have won if I had finished it. As a player from the academy, I cannot afford to lose, and I want to show the frustration I felt in the first half of the league through results. This match is the only chance to repay the debt from that encounter. I have played up to today believing that only I can clear that frustration and repay that debt. For victory, we will align the arrows of the entire team and face this match.

Player Hayato Inamura

This is a match we must win. We lost the last time we faced them, and everyone is filled with the spirit of "We will give it our all in this game." We just need to express that feeling on the field. During the match against JEF United Chiba, the fans cheered us on from the warm-up, and I truly apologize for not being able to respond to their support. We will prepare thoroughly and fight aiming only for 3 points.

Rio OMORI

Considering this season's regulations, we cannot afford to lose a single match from here on. This is a battle for the club's pride, and I believe it will be a clash of souls. Since it's a series of consecutive matches, I think it will be an all-out battle. We want to make it a match where we give everything we've got.
