"Kensuke NAGAI"
(Although it was a defeat by a one-point difference, looking back on the game)
"We conceded a goal at the end, and it was a disappointing game. We want to switch our mindset and do our best to win the next game."

(It was the first goal of the season in the ACL. Looking back at the scene of the goal)
"Abe made a good pass. It was also the beginning of the game, so I was able to aim for the goal and score, which was great."

(While there were changes in players, what the team was conscious of was)
"We approached the game with the awareness of playing Tokyo-style soccer. I think the challenge was not being able to score additional points today. We want to use that to our advantage in the next game."

(Ahead of the final group stage match in 3 days)
"There may be an impact on the rankings depending on the result of the Shanghai Shenhua vs Perth Glory match, but we won't think about that and focus on winning our next match as a united team."

"Takuya UCHIDA"
"My honest impression is that I couldn't do anything. I couldn't win the game and couldn't achieve any results as an individual, but I have to switch gears and focus on the next game."

(What were the points you were conscious of playing?)
"First of all, I thought that having a good defense from the front line was the standard. Within that, I think it's important to accurately execute plays after taking the ball."

(How did you approach the game based on the instructions you received?)
"I was told to give it my all and play with all my heart."

(For the remaining 1 match in the group stage)
"I can't do anything in my first ACL. There is still a possibility of advancing to the group stage, so I want to fight with all my might to win."

"Yojiro TAKAHAGI"
(First half, how did you watch the game from the bench?)
"I think we were able to play at a very good tempo from the start, and we were able to score the first goal, so we were able to continue the game in a good flow."

(What I was conscious of when I came on as a substitute)
"I wanted to increase my time with the ball because we weren't able to attack while holding onto it and spent a lot of time defending, so I entered the game with that in mind."

(What were the points that didn't fit well?)
"It wasn't that we weren't doing well, but rather that the opponent's strengths were showing."
"I wish I could have taken the ball and expanded it firmly to my ball after taking it."

(How to prepare for the next game)
"I want us to continue fighting as a team to win, regardless of who is playing, because I know there are players who are tired. We will continue to fight with a focus on the results."

"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"We were able to take the lead in the early stages of the first half, but I think we ended up spending more time defending after that."
The first half was a situation where we had several chances to score, so it was a matter of being able to get an additional point. However, in the second half, we were pushed back and fought for all 3 points.
Changed the members in the last 10 minutes and tried to win, but ended up giving the final point to Ulsan.
"I think the players have really worked hard."

(Mita player, who made his first start in Qatar, and Uchida player's evaluation)
"He did well. There were parts he could do and parts he couldn't. It's difficult to keep playing with the same 11 players all the time."
Mita and Uchida have joined and have brought some changes to the team. I hope we can continue to build on this in the future."

(In the early stages of the match, we were able to steal the ball from the opponent and smoothly attack towards their goal. As the match progressed, there were times when we couldn't fully repel the opponent's attacks.)
"After stealing the ball, we struggled to create opportunities."
I think there was also fatigue from the three consecutive games, and the opponent's pressure also had an impact. In that situation, we changed our shape in the last 10 minutes and went for the goal, but we ended up being countered.

(After receiving the results of today's match, the results of the next match will also be affected, but what is important to advance to the next round of 16?)
"There is no doubt that it has become a difficult situation. It is out of our control, but as long as there is still a chance, we will do our best."

(The team faced the game with five members replaced. Was the reason for giving young players like Uchida a chance due to the club's philosophy? Or was it due to the players' condition?)
"There is a philosophy in the club to nurture young players from the academy. This season, we have been fighting in the J-League with a very tight schedule. The players who played today, and those who have not yet played, have undoubtedly supported the team this season. However, for them, there is still a lack of "experience". I hope they will continue to grow through tough games like today."

(The intention behind changing the system in the second half was)
"The key was how to utilize the east."
Towards the end of the first half, Leandro was also exhausted from playing three consecutive games. We wanted to ease his burden and make use of Strong. Higashi is also a player who can play in various positions.
"I've been thinking about where he will be active since before the game while watching the game unfold today."

"Ulsan Kim Dohoon Press Conference Summary"
"First of all, I want to praise the players who have advanced to the group stage."
Of course, difficult matches will continue every three days in the future, but first and foremost, it's great to see one result.
"I think today, we were able to give our all in the 90 minutes of practice and it led to a cohesive team effort resulting in victory."
