《Kotaro OMORI》
I think it was a game to go for 3 points...
"It was the result of both teams fighting hard, but it is very frustrating."

(What the team was conscious of at the start of the match)
"We talked about pressing from the front right from the beginning. We were conscious of winning the ball there and creating chances."

(It seemed like the defense was working as described, didn't it?)
"I wish I or player Togashi had scored that."

(It was a difficult period that lasted a long time, but how was it?)
"I think we were able to create our own shape and effectively eliminate the opponent's forward balls, so I want to focus more on the quality at the end."

(How was the match against your former club?)
"I was frustrated."

《Kosuke OTA》
"It's frustrating because I just wanted to win, but it's not something to be pessimistic about. I think we need to look forward and, with the intention of making up for the loss next time, we have to come together and keep working hard."

(A word for the future)
"Anyway, I want to stay positive, continue the good atmosphere, and uplift myself as well. The team still has the power to show its true strength, so I hope you look forward to it."

《Tokyo - Summary of the Press Conference by Coach Kenta HASEGAWA》
(I) am not a good person at all, and I am frustrated about losing. We did not come here to gift 3 points to Gamba, so I think it turned out to be a regrettable match result.
The opening goal came from a rebound off a set piece, which was unavoidable, and today’s match was played in the humid heat of Kansai, which drained the players' stamina significantly.
It was good that we managed to equalize by showing our spirit in the final stages, but I think we lacked composure afterwards.
I believe that if we had been able to secure at least one point away while aiming for three points, there was a good chance that the result would have been different.
However, I think that is also an experience, and I believe we still lacked strength, so I want to apply today's lessons to the next time.
The league matches are long, and it is very important to steadily accumulate points, even if it's just one point per match. I think the players did very well in their efforts up to the point they caught up, and their performance afterwards was also commendable, but due to the heat, they lacked a bit of composure at the end. I believe the way we lost the ball was poor, which led to us being countered.
However, we can't just blame the defense. The offense also missed opportunities, and I believe we still need to grow as a team to convert those critical chances.

《Q&A》
Q=You mentioned it was a waste; could you elaborate on that meaning a bit more?
"There is no need to give away a winning goal in stoppage time. I believe it was okay to play considering the time."
After the match, I told the players that if the defense manages risks while the forwards go for the ball, the results will change.
I believe it is necessary to bring home points even from such tough and difficult games.

Q=There were many opportunities for Togashi. Since he is from a FW background, I think I understand his feelings about not being able to finish. If the coach were to speak to Togashi, what would he say? Also, an evaluation.
There are no words to say. I told him that we lost because he missed, and we talked about how if you can't finish in those situations, this is the result you get.
I think he knows best, and if he becomes a player who can finish in those situations, his evaluation will change again.

Summary of the Press Conference of G Osaka Coach Tsuneyasu MIYAMOTO
"In the last match, we suffered a very frustrating loss, so I was curious to see how the players would react. I think they came in stronger than I imagined."
At the start, there were a few close calls, but in other areas, they clearly demonstrated the strength of their first defense and were able to progress the match well in the first half.
However, I believe there is room for improvement in defense when the ball is played into the vital area.
I don't think we were just on the defensive after scoring, but there were times when we had to defend as the opponent came at us strongly. However, we managed to cope well by changing players and formations, but I think we were effectively outplayed by their individual skills.
That is something the team must reflect on.
However, even after being equalized, the attitude of fighting back, which was not seen in the previous match, led to Ademilson's goal. It was the victory everyone wanted, and I believe our hard work paid off. I really wanted to deliver a win to the supporters, so today was a great victory.
However, since we have only won one match, we must approach the next one with a strong determination.
