"Masato MORISHIGE"
"In the second half, there was also time to attack, so I thought we would eventually be able to score. Also, I felt it was important to keep the back at zero and play simply."
We have not been able to score in the last two games, but we have experienced this before. It is important to not concede goals during these times.

(The match against the opponent's FW was a heated battle)
"I want to be in a better position than my opponent and it is my role to not let the opponent's FW do their job. The defensive line was able to respond firmly with players Muroya, Watanabe, and Jae Suk OH."
I think we were able to maintain a stable defense by attacking on both sides and working hard on defense.

(In scenes where they receive a counterattack or attack in the opposite direction, and also in scenes where it was 0-0)
"Ending with no goals conceded is the minimum result."
There have been many games like this before, and the defense line needs to consider whether it can end with zero.
I think this one point will have a big impact in the future.
Scoring is the most difficult part of soccer. We can work on it together as a team and tackle any challenges without hesitation. Until then, the defense line will maintain their focus and support the attacking line like they did today."

(Could you hear the cheers of the fans and supporters?)
"It was a fantastic support. Seeing the fans and supporters in an away game gives me courage and fills me with energy."

"Kento HASHIMOTO"
(Both teams had chances, and it was difficult to maintain balance as a defensive midfielder)
"We had a lot of possession and chances, but the opponent also came to score from counter attacks. In that situation, I was conscious of managing risks and supplying passes behind the opponent's defense. The opponent also had a few big chances, but we were able to defend as a team."

(There were also scenes where the opponent's header hit the post.)
"I think that scene was also a result of the whole team throwing their bodies to defend and not allowing the goal to be broken."
All team members have a strong determination to not concede any goals and are able to play. From now on, we want to think about how to connect from persistent defense to scoring goals."

(It is difficult to evaluate a single point in the late stages of the season.)
"Honestly, it was a frustrating game and we needed to win. Every game is tough and I always feel that there are no easy games."
However, I think that today's game was able to play our own soccer, and the result of no goals will lead to the next one. All that's left is to score.
"We want to improve the quality of each play and continue to prepare from practice."

(Today, the away 8-game streak has reached its halfway point. Do you feel the difficulty?)
"It's difficult to win away games. While the results haven't been there, I think we've been able to play our style of football that we've built up until now. We want to get 3 points as soon as possible, but right now, what's important is how we can turn this situation into results."

(Chances are being created, but we cannot score)
"I think we are able to create chances, but we are not able to create big chances. We want to increase the accuracy of the final pass and create more opportunities to aim for goal with determination."
This season, there have been games where we were able to pick up 3 points despite having few chances. I think there is also some luck involved, so it is important to continue on.

"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"I wanted to respond to the support of many fans and supporters who came from Tokyo and cheered for us. They were also giving us a lot of support before the game started."
The players fought well towards the Matsumoto goal for 90 minutes. It was tough to break through and score. As for scoring, we will continue to think and work on it while considering our condition. I don't think getting 1 point away is a bad result, so we will aim for 3 points without getting discouraged and look towards the next match. The Tosu Stadium in the next match is a very difficult place, but we want to have a tough game and compete for a win."

(They gained 1 point, but it seems their stance was to defend firmly)
"Rather than defending for 1 point out of fear of conceding, their desire was to score points no matter what. The players were also playing with the mindset of getting back the points even if they were taken away. Today, the Matsumoto players fought well and the team changed, but they fought with their hearts.
I don't think we were able to break through in a good way. We can't win if we don't score points, so I want to give the team the kind of stimulation that will allow us to score.

(There is also an impression of fighting on the opponent's dohyo. It was difficult to break through the spaces.)
"Normally, Matsumoto would also slide on both sides and come to defend aggressively. However, today there was an instruction from Manager Antomachi to not go too much and try to eliminate the spaces."
Today, we used Mita, but we need to do more and more work to penetrate behind the opponent's defense even without space. In the second half, the defensive midfielder joined the attack and we were able to create some close chances. We will need to push even harder.
However, playing at Alwin Stadium is difficult. It is not a stadium where we can easily take points. The players are also fighting with power, so there is nothing we can do about it today. We just have to switch gears and move on."

"Summary of Matsumoto - Yasuharu Sorimachi Press Conference"
"We have to earn 3 points, no matter who the opponent is."
I have prepared by working backwards from there. I am aware that it will be a difficult game as I am currently at the top of Japan, but I have prepared for it. I think I did well until the final whistle.
I think it's more likely that we are the ones who smell of points, not the others. Of course, Tokyo has the ability to break through individually, and has both speed and decisiveness. In that sense, it was a good thing to keep the points at zero, but it was a little disappointing that we couldn't score any points. However, I think it was a game that will lead to the next one."

(Although we created several decisive moments, we were unable to score in the end.)
"There were several opportunities to create a numerical advantage, but at those times we either dropped the ball, rushed and couldn't make the best choice, or had similar situations in both the first and second half."
Training for attacking in a wide space is something we have to do from now on. I think we were able to show our strengths in attack, such as pushing forward and the dynamism of our front line.
