【Diego OLIVEIRA】
(The first half was a difficult match to find a rhythm)
"Since it was the first away match, I think today's game was a tough one.
I expected the Korean team to have strict marking. I think there was some confusion in the first half, but I believe we were able to regroup well in the second half.

(Looking back at the goal scene)
I think it was a goal that three players connected well to score.
When Leandro lifted his head, I started to move, and a very good pass came, allowing me to score a goal.
This goal was not just scored by three people, but it was a point earned by the entire team.
Today was a frustrating draw, and we couldn't earn 3 points, but since it was an away game, I think it's not a bad result.

(What kind of image do Adailton and Leandro have while playing?)
"The coach has told us we can play freely. We are playing while communicating well among the three of us. Today, we were able to play with a good image."

[Leandro]
"It wasn't bad, but since we couldn't win, I can't say it was good. Personally, it wasn't bad, but I really wanted to win today. If I think calmly, I believe it's good that we were able to earn one point away from home."

(Through passes and dribbling were the highlights)
"I think I was able to showcase the plays I can do in both offense and defense. However, it's disappointing that it didn't lead to a victory. I want to delve deeper into the areas that are just a little short from now on."

(The three players in the front line were playing fluidly)
"As we continue to play, we have come to understand each other's senses. There are also aspects that make communication easier, so I believe we can enhance our collaboration from now on."

(Looking back at the goal scene)
"I think the relationship between the three players is good, and that led to the goal. I believe that if we keep working together, we can improve even more than we are now."

(Was Diego OLIVEIRA visible?)
"Since I often make passes and Diego and Ada often run, I was able to imagine it."

Masato MORISHIGE
"It was fun to be back in the ACL after four years. I think we were able to achieve a minimum result by earning one point away."

(In a situation where we were pushed back, we scored the opening goal, but unfortunately conceded a goal.)
"While we are still trying out a new system, difficult things happen during the match. However, if we can make at least one correction in each match over the course of a year, I believe it will lead to significant results throughout the season. I want us to thoroughly reflect on today's match and make corrections together."

(Were there parts that needed correction during the match?)
"I think we were able to make corrections as much as possible while communicating during the match. After the match, I want us all to reflect on it thoroughly and connect it to the further evolution of the team."

[Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA]
"It was very reassuring to have over 600 fans and supporters come to Ulsan for the away match. In the first half, we were a bit tense and struggled to create good attacking opportunities, resulting in fewer chances to attack. In the second half, we were able to make adjustments and our defense was stable and responsive."
Therefore, it was very significant that we were able to score through the combination in the front line.
We were cautious about set plays, and while it is certainly frustrating to concede a goal and end in a draw, it is not a bad thing that we managed to score an away goal and earn one point.
In a week, we have the second match at home, so I want to make sure to correct the areas that need fixing and prepare for the next battle.

(After today's first match, challenges and positives)
"In the first half, we were unable to play the way we had envisioned. There were several instances where crosses from the sides created dangerous situations. Overall, it wasn't bad, but there was a sense that something wasn't quite clicking."
In the second half, we were able to make adjustments during halftime, maintaining a good balance between offense and defense, and creating opportunities to attack. Within that, we were able to score the opening goal. In that sense, I believe the content of the second half was a step forward. We knew that Ulsan is a very strong team and not an easy opponent, but by fighting like this, we can also grow. Without being satisfied with the result of a draw, we want to prepare well again and aim for victory next time.

(Reason for bringing in player Mita at the end)
"I believe that the second ball after a long ball is one of the key points. As we approached the end of the match, we were unable to pick up the second ball, so I decided to use Mita. It was a choice to respond properly while also going for the winning goal."

【Ulsan - Kim Do-hoon Manager Press Conference Summary】
The players showed the results of their practice. I think the content was good. I want to do my best to win in away games. I felt the possibility of winning away.
This season, we are challenging ourselves with a three-back formation instead of the usual four-back. We have prepared well for this day.
