≪Tokyo U-23 Tetsu NAGASAWA Manager Press Conference Summary≫

"Tokyo fans and supporters came to our game that was held at the same time as the J1 match. We are truly grateful for that. I feel responsible for not being able to deliver a victory in such a situation."

In the first half, we were able to possess the ball, but we were unable to move the ball in a way that would be a threat to the opponent, and we ended up conceding points. I think we showed a bit of youth as we were attacking while the opponent was preparing for a counterattack.

In the second half, we organized ourselves and entered the game, but we were unable to convert our chances and ended up conceding a goal instead. I also feel that we lacked the concentration to capitalize on our opportunities.

You cannot move on to the next step without experiencing it. However, just experiencing it is not enough, so we will pursue it strictly in the locker room. In the next game, I want to show a fighting style that demonstrates a challenging attitude."
