《Yojiro TAKAHAGI》
(It was a match where hard work stood out)
"The entire team was able to give their all and fight. It was a difficult match, but I believe that the fact we fought as one team was the key to our victory."

(I think there were many players who were injured. What were your thoughts while playing?)
"I played carrying the feelings of the players who couldn't stand on the pitch. From here on, I believe it's a total battle, so I want to continue this."

(We ended the first match after the restart with a good result)
"I thought today's match after the break was really important. I want to build momentum from here and approach the second half of the season."

《Takuji YONEMOTO》
(How is the pain in your side?)
"It hurts (bitter smile)"

(Did you have confidence that you could do it?)
"For me, this was the only chance I had, so I didn't want to miss it.
I think it was good that we were able to take 3 points, as I approached the match with the feeling that I didn't want to lose since the usual members were not present.

(In the second half, I especially put my body on the line)
"I think it's the result of always being prepared, and if I don't do my part, I won't be able to play in the match, so I was a bit unsteady, but I did my best"

(Achieved 200 matches)
"It has been a long 200 matches. Looking back, I feel that it’s remarkable to have played 200 matches after suffering three major injuries.
But I am truly happy to have been able to play 200 matches with this team alone.
I don't think there are many players who can play for just one team.

《Tokyo - Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference Summary》
"I think the players really fought tenaciously until the end, despite the tough team composition. Many fans and supporters came all the way to the away game to cheer for us and support the players. (The goal was) in the form of an own goal, but we struggled to break down the sides in the first half, and we talked about increasing the number of attempts in the second half. (Keigo) HIGASHI's cross was good, and Cayman TOGASHI made a good run into the right spot. I believe that led to the own goal."
After that, the players who came on as substitutes fought very well, and I think today will be a significant victory in many ways.
In three days, we will face Yokohama F.Marinos (our next opponent), and since they scored 8 goals today, we want to prepare well to compete against a strong opponent.

《Q&A》
Q=I believe that the resumption match is an important game for every team. What words did you share with the players as you prepare for the resumption? And what is the value of today's 3 points?
"Throughout the long season, there will be players who cannot participate in matches for various reasons such as injuries or illnesses."
Among them, for both Ryoya OGAWA, who is playing in a position for the first time in today's match, and Makoto OKAZAKI, who has been in the game, it is very significant that they played until the end with concentration, including Yu OKUBO, in their first start of the season.
I believe that it's difficult to win matches with just a fixed 11 or 12 players. Today, fresh players came out and contributed to the victory in the league, and I think this will strengthen the team moving forward.
Starting from the next match, new players will join the team, and injured players are recovering, so we want to have good competition and prepare for the next match.

《Kashiwa - Nozomu KATO's Press Conference Summary》
"It's frustrating that we couldn't win despite the league resuming and being able to play at home. We need to build on this for the next match."

《Q&A》
Q=The instruction at halftime was to increase the tempo in attack, similar to the Yamagata match, but what is the reason for having to give such instructions for two consecutive matches?
"I think there was an intention to gather the ball more as a team in the midfield and to speed that up, but I don't think it went well."
