[Player/Coach Comments]
"Shuto ABE"
"I am honestly happy that we were able to win 3-0 and two of those goals were mine."
(Today's game was a one-shot match, but did you feel the different pressure from usual?)
"It was a must-win game, but I was able to enter the match as usual in the league."
"In addition, the first half was also very good, and I think it led to victory because we were able to play Tokyo-style football."
(I think both goals were scored with the power of running)
"I also wanted to score myself, and I couldn't have scored without running into the goal."
"Among those, both times I ran into the goal and the ball came to me, so all I had to do was just tap it in. I want to thank my teammates."
(Regarding the fact that I was able to contribute to the team in a visible way)
"Since players like Hashimoto and Higashi left, there have been many games that the team couldn't win, and I also felt responsible for it myself."
However, with the desire to gradually show my strengths, I was able to score in J1 and also score today.
"Even without these two, it's important for me to lead the team and continue to play with responsibility and contribute to scoring."
(It seems that the relationship between the three players in the midfield is maturing)
"Takahagi is actively giving us instructions."
It's easy for me to do it myself, and when it comes to playing, I ask Takahagi for advice when I'm in trouble.
"I think the midfield is working well with Takahagi as the center and Arthur SILVA and myself as the three. We want to continue to improve our teamwork and play better together in the future."
"Adailton"
(Looking back on the match)
"I thought it would be a very difficult match, but I'm glad we were able to fight as a team and grab the victory, and move on to the next stage."
(Looking back at the goal scene)
"I don't remember much about the goal scene, but I was able to take the ball from the opposing DF and dribble it."
"I was able to calmly put it into the goal, and I think it's because I've been practicing my shots regularly and the results showed."
"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"It was very good that we were able to take the lead in a good way, as we talked about the importance of the first goal. In the second half, we were able to score additional points in an ideal way, and we were also able to score a final goal to seal the win. I think the players did a great job."
(Shuto ABE scored 2 goals. The accuracy of his attacks has been improving)
"I've been watching Shuto's play since last year, and I knew he had the ability to make decisive shots and last passes even in college. However, I think he had a tough start in J1 due to the speed and physicality, and couldn't fully utilize his skills. Recently, I think he gained confidence and has been able to showcase his strengths."
(The system's stability is starting to show, and it functioned well today as well)
"We have been working on our defensive promises since spring camp, but it has been difficult to fully implement them."
Especially when pressing from the front line and when creating blocks in their own territory, they were unable to switch smoothly on the pitch even though they understood it in their head. Recently, the switch between pressing and blocking has become smoother.
The attack has improved through the combination of fixed members and playing in August. Gradually, everyone is starting to understand their role, but we are not yet at the point where we can say "anyone can play". It is important to be able to maintain the quality of the game even when changing members.
I think there will still be ups and downs, but now the part I think about in my head and the actual play are naturally linked.
"Nagoya - Massimo FICCADENTI Press Conference Summary"
"In the first half, we were completely outplayed by individual skills and (Diego) OLIVEIRA created chances for them to score. After that, we couldn't do anything and they were able to take control of the game with their fast counterattacks, which is exactly what they wanted."
In the second half, the balance shifted as we changed our members and pushed forward with the ball. However, mistakes were made and we were unable to execute our planned counterattacks. The timing of the opponent's goals was also favorable, and I wonder how much time we were able to effectively play in the rain. It was a difficult time for the players as well.
The Levain Cup is over, so we switch and among them, the players who played today, both Yonemoto and Abe were able to play, and among the players who have been working hard with the same members so far, it is not known whether the depth will increase in the player layer from today, but the choices will increase considerably.
Thank you for your hard work until today. Let's focus on the league games and switch to a positive mindset about our current ranking. We must be grateful to our players for being able to continue challenging for the top.
Today, Tokyo won as they were meant to win. Looking at the score, there is nothing to complain about. I hope we can continue to play well in the league and keep our players in good spirits.
