[Player and Coach Comments]
《Takahiro YANAGI》
I thought that after losing in the last match, consecutive losses were unacceptable, so I believe it was good that we were able to win solidly today.
(How do you feel personally?)
In the beginning of both the first and second halves, I was able to take the initiative, but the number of times I took the initiative decreased from the middle of the second half, so I want to maintain a mindset of being proactive.
What has allowed you to increase your playing time in J1?
The pace and tempo in J1 are very fast, and I think you have to match that level even in J3.
Among them, I felt that it was particularly necessary to speed up the decision-making process.
(Has your awareness changed in any way?)
When I played in J1, I couldn't really take the initiative, so I want to be able to properly take the initiative against my opponents again in J3.
In addition, when I participate in J1, I want to create opportunities through such proactive plays.
(What is your enthusiasm for the next match?)
We haven't been able to secure consecutive wins in J3, so I want to make sure we earn 3 points in the next match.
《Masayuki YAMADA》
I think we were able to play soccer that is enjoyable to watch, especially with many players participating in J1, and we also had fun playing.
However, looking only at the results, I think we need to overwhelm our opponents more.
Scoring 3 goals is not enough, and I want to accept the reality of conceding 1 goal, focus on that, and work on the next challenge.
(Was it difficult to prepare because you were part of the J1 members the day before?)
I am always conscious of playing in J1, and even if I can't participate in the match, just watching makes it easier to envision approaching today's game, so I think I was able to prepare as usual without any changes.
(Was today your birthday?)
I believe that as I age, I need to evolve, and in that sense, I want to push myself more stoically, take the position, and contribute to the team's victory.
(What are your thoughts heading into the next match?)
I am truly grateful for the many people who came to today's match and for all the support I received.
We will do our best to aim for a higher rank in both J1 and J3, so we appreciate your support.
Summary of Coach Tadashi NAKAMURA's Press Conference
With the favorable weather, it was great that the fans and supporters cheered us on energetically, and we were able to celebrate the victory together.
The match was very difficult in the first half, and we were unable to move the ball effectively under the opponent's pressure.
Amid various factors, discussing among the players during halftime and making adjustments allowed us to increase our attacking time from the start of the second half for 30 minutes.
I think that part was good.
However, there are times when the flow changes due to a small mistake, and it can be corrected.
I think it is necessary to extend our time period.
