"Keigo Higashi"
"It was a game we had to win. We will have another game against the same opponent in two days, so we want to make good preparations and win next time."

(It was a game where the accuracy of the final finish was a challenge)
"We just have to keep doing it with confidence."
"I want to keep challenging and not become passive, and use today's game as a reflection to move forward to the next one."

(As an individual, it was my second game back in the Sendai match)
"I think I'm getting better with each game, and I truly feel the joy of being able to play soccer."
I am hungry for the game and hungry for victory.
"I think everyone needs to be more greedy and more focused on winning."

(We will have another match against the same opponent in just two days)
"It's not often that we have the opportunity to play against the same opponent in just two days."
I think today is a chance to repay the debt that was done to me.
"We want to firmly switch to the next game as a team and definitely win."

"Masato MORISHIGE"
"At first, everyone's play was stiff. I think there were parts that were overwhelmed by the unique atmosphere of the ACL."

(Opponent's impression)
"We feel that our own quality and ideas were lacking, rather than the opponent's problem, because we were able to create chances."

(Things I was conscious of when changing positions in the middle)
"I was able to move up from center back, but I felt that our build-up play in the midfield was lacking, so I was conscious of that and played accordingly."

(To win against the same opponent in two days)
"I think it's important to play with courage and take the ball aggressively to aim for the goal."

"Shuto ABE"
(Looking back on today's match)
We wanted to accumulate points in our first game after the break, but it's very disappointing. Although we ended up losing 0-1, the group stage battle continues, so we have no choice but to switch gears and keep going.

(Opponent's impression:)
"They had a strong defense and were willing to put their bodies on the line until the end, so we wanted to break through. We had chances, but we couldn't quite score."

(To win against this opponent, who we will face again in 2 days)
"We need to put our bodies on the line and not lose in the physical battles. I believe that is the simple key to winning the game."
In addition, the opponent's defensive style was unique and different from that of J-League teams, so we struggled. We feel that if we don't discuss and improve as a team, it will be difficult to score in the next game. We want to score solidly and keep the opponent from scoring to win."

"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"It's a very disappointing result, but we will face the same opponent again in two days."
"We want to fight to turn today's result around in the next 90 minutes."

(How was the players' performance throughout the match?)
"It was the first game, so there were players who were playing in the ACL for the first time, and there were also players who were still getting used to the tournament."
However, I think that by fighting hard today, those players will be able to smoothly enter the next game.

(Was the first game after the restart difficult?)
"I think it was."
However, Shanghai Shenhua also filled the space well and played in a way that did not allow passes to be made behind them.
"We were able to create several scoring opportunities, so we want to make sure to convert them in the next game."

(It will be a rematch in two days, but what adjustments are needed on the offensive side?)
"We were able to create some attacking opportunities."
I want to continue working together by communicating with each other in detail, such as the last pass and the previous pass.

(What do you think about playing against the same opponent in two days?)
"I think we have a good grasp on what kind of team they are."
Although there are difficult parts, we believe that since there are no away goals in this year's ACL, we are at the end of the first half of the 180-minute battle and we want to fight to turn the game around in the second half of 90 minutes.

(What is your impression of Shanghai?)
"As expected, they played a physical style of football."
We gave away a careless penalty by throwing in a long ball even in the scene of conceding a goal.
"I felt like this was a battle in Asia, and I think of it as the ACL, so even though it was a short period of time, I want to fix the issues that came up today and face the next game with confidence."

"FC Tokyo is a strong team with a great coach."
"We were able to score and win by playing as a team for 90 minutes, after analyzing and preparing beforehand."
