[Player and Coach Comments]
Masato MORISHIGE
(We had a good start in the first half, but it felt like we lost momentum in the second half)
"Simply put, the reason was that our stamina dropped in the second half.
In the first half, we were able to create time for ourselves well in the spaces on the sides of the midfield, but in the second half, the members changed, and as a team, we succumbed to the opponent's momentum.
(Was it a feeling that we rushed too much in the first half?)
I think we started as usual. If I had to be greedy, I wanted to score 2 or 3 goals in the first half.
In the second half, it felt like there were more situations where we were pushed back due to being at a disadvantage in midfield.
I feel that the match became too open throughout.
(This season, Kashima has conceded many goals from set pieces, but did the team analyze that?)
"Kashima understood through analysis that they have conceded many goals from set pieces. However, Tokyo also mentioned that they scored few goals from set pieces last season, so they want to increase their goals from set pieces this season.
Already this season, Watanabe has scored 2 goals, and I have also managed to score 1 goal, so I want to score more from set pieces.
《Tsuyoshi WATANABE》
(The equalizer after going behind was significant for the team)
"I thought the goal we conceded was due to my mistake."
I'm glad I was able to regain that with my own goal, but I still regret the moment we conceded.
(Today, Mita scored 2 goals from set plays)
"Last season, we also scored from Mita's kick in the away match against Oita, and since we've practiced together many times, I know that if I make a run, the ball will come. I believe Mita's kick is a significant weapon for the team."
(I think there are times to reflect on the scenes of conceding goals, but it was a good performance in both offense and defense)
"Conceding a goal in that manner, despite having few chances against us, shows a weakness that emerged.
As a team, we need to reduce goals conceded like today, despite having good defense.
Looking at the match as a whole, we were unable to maintain a high-intensity defense in the second half, which gave the opponent opportunities. Personally, I want to improve my stamina and concentration.
《Tokyo - Summary of the Press Conference with Director Kenta HASEGAWA》
If we had been able to score a goal within the first 15 minutes, it could have led to a different development in the match.
The last 15 minutes became an open game, and Kashima created some dangerous scenes, but everyone showed aggressive play aiming for the opponent's goal. The away match against Kashima is a tough game, and victory cannot be easily taken.
I want to view the fact that everyone earned 1 point positively.
Today, Uchida played well in his first start in the J1 League.
I hope for future expectations, and Mita recorded 2 assists, demonstrating high precision in set plays and showcasing his skills in midfield composition.
For the team, this is also very significant in terms of the emergence of new strength. There will be consecutive matches in August, but we want to fight together as a team.
(Two goals from set pieces. Were they analyzed?)
"Regarding set pieces, the coaching staff analyzes and communicates with the players."
I think the kicker's accuracy and the way the players entered the goal area were good. We scored two goals from set pieces, but it was disappointing that we couldn't finish the chances we had during the flow of the game.
(The aim for the second half)
"I told the players at halftime that we should be aggressive in the second half."
By bringing in Adailton and Konno while we were winning, I sent a message to attack further, but I think it backfired a bit.
《Kashima・ZAGO Coach Press Conference Summary》
"In the first half, we continued to have ball losses and mistakes that were not our style."
I have struggled to express what I have been doing until now. One reason for that is that Tokyo applied pressure from a high position. To get through that, we needed a bit more ingenuity. Also, I think we lacked composure in the build-up phase and lost our rhythm.
In the second half, I think we were able to score because the pressure we applied from the first half naturally caused our opponents to stop, and when they dropped back overall, it created space for us.
There were more chances than that. However, unfortunately, we are practicing defensive set plays, but the more we do it, the more goals we concede.
Overall, we are still in the process of building, but I think we were able to express part of the football we are aiming for.
I hope that those watching will want to continue seeing things like this. What I aim for is something like this. There are many areas that require refinement, such as quality, precision, and timing, but I think we are in a state of development. We need to improve a bit more on conceding goals from set pieces.
