[Player and Coach Comments]
Leandro
(Looking back at the match)
"I am very happy that we were able to win at home today"
(Looking back at the goal scene)
"When the ball came, the opponent closed in and there was no time, but I was able to aim for the goal well.
When I received the ball, I looked for my teammates once, but there were no options, so I decided to go for the shot.
I'm really glad that I was able to decide as a result.
(This led to a goal that contributed to the team's victory)
I think the results of our practice are being clearly shown in the matches.
I am really glad that I was able to score a goal to help the team win today.
《Sei MUROYA》
(The last match in Tokyo)
"Above all, it was great to end with a victory"
(The scoring scene started with Muroya's defense)
"I don't remember much, but there was space in the midfield, and by going to fill that space, I was able to apply pressure and win the ball.
I went on the defense knowing there were some risks, but I think it was good as it led to a goal.
(Leandro scored, but Muroya was also aiming for the loose ball)
"I thought there might be a chance, and I was hoping it would roll to me, so I was ready to pounce."
(I think I mentioned wanting to perform captivating plays before the match)
"If I had to say, I wanted to create more chances in the attacking area.
As a team, we were able to go into halftime with a score of 1-0, and considering that the opponent is a team that excels in ball possession, I was playing with a strong focus on defense as a fullback.
I think we were able to show our strength in one-on-one situations and in the fighting aspects.
(What I thought after the ceremony while circling Ajinomoto)
"There were fans and supporters who had the jersey with the number 2 and wrote messages on flags.
It was a moment when I truly felt that I was glad to have come to this team.
It was a lonely situation where we couldn't express our feelings, but it became a time where I strongly felt everyone's thoughts.
《Tokyo - Summary of the Press Conference with Director Kenta HASEGAWA》
"It was a very humid match, but being able to score the first goal was very significant."
It would have been even better if we could have continued the match at our own pace in the second half and scored additional points, but I believe that winning at home against a strong Nagoya team after several matches without a victory is a significant boost to our confidence.
(Although it was the scene of the opening goal, we were able to develop attacks from good defense)
"In the last match, the team was able to grasp a sense of achievement. We made some positional changes, but I think we were able to score in a good flow. The opening goal came from switching from attack to defense at a high position, and it was scored through a combination from there. It was a wonderful goal."
(Regarding player Muroya, who will transfer to Germany after today)
"Of course, losing a player who is part of the Japan national team is a significant blow to the team. This season, especially, his accuracy in crosses has improved, creating chances from the sides.
The transfer has been decided, and he will not be here from the next match. I believe we all need to fill the gap left by Hashimoto's transfer, as well as Higashi's injury and Muroya's absence.
(Yesterday, there was a discussion about wanting to balance offense and defense for this match, regarding the result of 1-0 against Nagoya)
"Nagoya played a wonderful match against Kawasaki, and in the previous league match, they had a big victory over Urawa, so the team is in a good state."
Tokyo had to play a tight match just like the game against C Osaka. In that sense, I think the balance between offense and defense was achieved. However, moving forward, we need to take the lead, score additional points, and maintain that flow to earn points.
《Nagoya - Massimo FICCADENTI Coach Press Conference Summary》
The match unfolded as I had predicted.
Against Tokyo, who tightened the center firmly, we fell into a trap and lost the ball in a bad way, allowing them to score.
When they defend so tightly, and we are committing more players forward, it is inevitable that if we lose possession poorly, we will be hit on the counter.
I think that creating a heavy condition on the ground by watering it was also in line with their strategy.
(Could not create a base on the side)
"The fatigue from the consecutive matches was something we knew about before the game, so it cannot be an excuse.
What kind of match should have been played among them?
It seems that there was a lack of speed when transitioning to attack, rather than whether or not a starting point could be created.
The order of how to move the ball was correct, but without speed, it would just be defended the same way on the opposite side again, and we couldn't create that shape effectively.
