[Player/Coach Comments]

《Takefusa KUBO》

(How was it looking back on the FK scene?)
"I was able to kick it to the intended course, but it hit the wall. I hope I can think of a different way to kick it from practice."

(Full participation and how did it feel?)
"There were some difficult times during the game, but I think it was good that we were able to create a good shape on our own."

(What was the difference between playing in J1 and J3?)
"I have played in this stadium once during J3, but today was a night game so there was a difference in the view. I also noticed the sound of the drums echoing when the surroundings became quiet during the game."

(Was he aiming for a long shot?)
"There was a discussion about aiming for it from the first half. However, in the first half, I wasn't able to lift my head up when I received the ball in a good position, so I couldn't aim for it. That's why I was thinking of aiming for it in the first shot of the second half."

《Kento HASHIMOTO》

(There were some close scenes at the beginning)
"The start of the game was really good, and we were able to create many scoring opportunities. Personally, I had about two chances to score, so I felt that I need to improve my ability to finish them off."

(It was a game I faced as captain)
"Today, above all, I wanted results. As a team, we were able to come together and face the game. I think each of us was able to feel the challenges we faced in today's game and what we need to do to win as a team, so we have no choice but to improve through daily training."
"In order to have a good competition, the substitute players need to raise their level and also show their presence as individuals."

"Summary of Tokyo - Kenta HASEGAWA's press conference"

"Losing is really frustrating. However, the players showed a passionate fight. We couldn't quite finish it in the last few games, but I think they showed a very intense game until the end. Many fans and supporters came to the stadium, and I think the players fought with the desire to score and win. However, it is true that the last part of the league match as a team is not enough. We want to improve the accuracy of our last passes and shots through training."

《Q&A》
Q=Did you use Kubo as a starter?
"Today, they played very aggressively. Towards the end, they got tired and made more mistakes, but until then, they showed a fighting spirit for the team's victory. I think Kenei was fantastic today."

"Summary of Yokohama FM Ange POSTECOGLOU's press conference"

"It was a match where both ourselves and FC Tokyo made some changes to the lineup. Because of that situation, we were expecting a difficult game. It was indeed a tough match, and there was little time for us to control the game as we wanted."

"Q&A"
Q=Is today's victory a big confidence boost?
"Yes, that's right. However, what's important is whether we are able to play our own soccer within what we are doing, and we are focusing on the performance aspect. In that regard, we were not able to control the game as much in today's match."
