[Player/Coach Comments]
"Yojiro TAKAHAGI"
(This victory is huge)
"It's huge. Nothing more than that."
(The first half was a tough development)
"The wind also made it difficult to send the ball forward and create situations where we could push the opponent. In that sense, I think it was good that we were able to withstand the first half."
(Could we take advantage of the wind in the second half?)
"We thought we could advance advantageously in the second half, so we believed that if we could score while creating momentum, we could win."
(After Nagai's goal, the opponent changed their tactics by bringing in a taller player. Did you anticipate this?)
"We were prepared for the opponent to play that way, so I think we were able to fight tenaciously until the end with everyone."
(Okazaki entered and Takahagi also returned to a very low position)
"I think everyone understands what the team needs to do no matter who enters. Although Hyun Soo JANG had to be substituted due to an accident, Maruyama played well and Okazaki has the confidence to play in any position, so I can play with peace of mind and be more aggressive."
(Many fans and supporters came to support us)
"Thanks to the support of many fans and supporters, we were able to earn 3 points."
(Next is the top-ranked Hiroshima match)
"Since today's game is already over, I want to quickly switch and prepare for the next game."
"Kensuke NAGAI"
(It was a clean sheet victory away from home. Looking back on today's match)
"In the first half, the wind was stronger than I had imagined and we were pushed back by the opponent. Even in difficult times, the players encouraged each other and were able to endure. I believed that if we could get through the first half without conceding, we would have a chance in the second half. So I think it was a victory that we all won together."
(Scored 2nd goal of the season)
"Diego OLIVEIRA was able to position himself well between the opponents, so I was aiming for the space behind them. Oomori gave me a good pass, so all I had to do was play against the goalkeeper. I'm glad I was able to score."
(Although it is a series of games, for the future)
"I want to recover from fatigue and prepare my condition well. We have games every 3 days and 2 days, but since we can play at home, I want to win and share the joy with our fans and supporters."
"Summary of Tokyo - Kenta HASEGAWA Coach's Press Conference"
"I think it was a difficult match. I think the players were very hot and fought well for 90 minutes in very tough conditions."
The reason for today's victory was that we were able to end the first half with a score of zero. In my mind, I had the image that the pitch at this stadium would be more lively and the ball would run more, but surprisingly, when it dried up, it became sticky and the ball didn't move much.
In that sense, I think it took some time for the players to adjust to the environment.
I think that being able to finish the bad time zone with a solid zero led to the goal in the second half. In the end, Shimizu FW Zheng Daisei created a decisive opportunity, but the players responded with their emotions.
Shimizu has been playing very tough games lately. I came here today prepared, but I really think we got a big 3 points.
"Q&A"
Q=Regarding player substitutions, I don't think today's substitutions were necessarily what we had in mind. How did the players respond?
"(Hyun) Hyun Soo JANG was replaced by Maruyama due to some discomfort in his leg, but Maruyama himself was well prepared before the game and I think he smoothly entered the game. Okazaki made his first appearance in a while, and there were times when he couldn't get into the game, but I think he will become a solid force if he gradually gets used to it in this way."
"Summary of Shimizu Yojiro's press conference"
"Today's performance was satisfying for us."
I think the first half of the 45 minutes was particularly good. In the second half, FC Tokyo was much more aggressive and came forward. It became a chasing game, but I think we were able to create many chances until the end. I also told the players that it is important to show the same performance as the first half for the entire 90 minutes.
I told the players to show a good game in the future matches and create scoring opportunities. It is certainly disappointing that we couldn't get points while playing a good game, but I also want to emphasize the importance of showing a solid game.
