[Player and Coach Comments]

《Adailton》
"In a very tough match, Tagawa took the ball from the opponent and gave me a wonderful pass. I am really glad that I was able to finish it well."

(Coach HASEGAWA achieved his 200th victory in J1 today)
"Including today's match, J.League matches are challenging. I want to sincerely congratulate everyone for being able to achieve so many victories in that context."
However, I hope they continue to accumulate victories and extend their records.

《Daiki NIWA》
(At this moment, I got my chance, reflecting on today's match)
"In a situation where I didn't know when the opportunity would come, I was always prepared to play and fight at any time.
And today's match.
This season has an unprecedented schedule due to various influences, which is why I thought that when I played in a match, my usual self would come out.
I had been preparing well in my daily life, and I think I was able to play calmly today as well.
Especially with many young players, I myself have a long age and career, but since this is my first match at 34 years old, I played enjoying it as a rookie at 34.

(What kind of feelings did player Niwa have going into today's match)
"Soccer is a fun sport."
I had nothing to lose and approached the match with a mindset of giving it my all.
To be honest, I didn't care at all about the opponent; regardless of who the opponent was or who was on my side, I played with the intention of showcasing my true self and making the most of the 90 minutes without regrets.
I don't know when or in what form the opportunity to participate will come, but I believe that I just need to continue doing what I've done so far.

(I think the defenders often pair up during regular training, but what kind of feedback did you have regarding defensive awareness and teamwork?)
"We always train at a high intensity and are always pushing ourselves to the limit during practice."
I think that part came up in today's match.
Joan OUMARI speaks English, so even the day before the match and at the hotel, he was directly discussing the match.
The center-back's positioning by a few centimeters can determine whether a goal is conceded or not, so I believe I was able to show the preparation I had done today.

(There was a scene where Danwa blocked a shot at close range)
I conveyed to Kashif BANGNAGANDE and Hotaka NAKAMURA that even if they were challenged on the sides, as long as we could clear it at the end with Joan OUMARI or Go HATANO, there would be no problem.
I think I was able to play with determination, allowing myself to play with an attacking mindset without thinking too much about defense.

(There were appearances by players such as Miyazaki and Yajima)
"I am really happy."
Players who usually don't get chances delivered results. They had really prepared well from training, and it is very good that they can energize the team.
I don't know who will play in the next match, but I want to prepare well for the Levain Cup in two days.

《Tokyo - Summary of the Press Conference with Director Kenta HASEGAWA》
"It was a very difficult match, but the players fought really well.
Yajima, who came on midway through the game, changed the flow of the match. As the team captain who couldn't play, he expressed his frustration during these 30 minutes. I believe that led to the winning goal.

(We made a complete turnover of the starting lineup, utilizing players like Yajima and Miyazaki for a total effort)
"Given the very tight schedule with consecutive matches, we decided to make a bold turnover today. It was a difficult rhythm and flow, but the players fought patiently. Those who had not been able to play in previous matches contributed solidly to securing 3 points and the victory. In that sense, I hope we can all continue to fight together in the upcoming matches."

(Today marks the 200th victory in J1 history. Following Akira NISHINO, I am the second person to achieve this)
"It doesn't feel like a new beginning at all.
The matches will really continue, and this is just a milestone. However, without the support of various players, staff, and related parties, the achievement of 200 wins in J1 would not have been possible. I truly want to thank everyone who has been involved with me.

《Shonan - Bin UKISHIMA Coach Press Conference Summary》
"Starting today, with more supporters coming in, we received very strong support. I wanted to have a good fight within that, but I couldn't deliver results, and I am filled with regret.
In the match, we succumbed to long balls, loose balls, ball handling, and second balls that we had been cautious about. It's disappointing that it turned out this way, especially since we were aware of it, and we have conceded an overwhelming number of goals in the last 15 minutes this season. I feel that unless we improve in these areas, including with the substitutes, it will be difficult to earn points in games like this.

(The challenge of breaking down the opponent remains an issue today)
"Against a defensive opponent, mid-range shots and crosses become the most important. We couldn't create opportunities to shoot in the central area, and the crosses ended up being monotonous, so those are the issues we need to address.
Of course, I was aware that Tokyo is a team that leaves a lot of space behind, but as a result, since the opponent was defending deep, we couldn't exploit that space effectively. In the first half, when Tarik was on the field, we were able to create plays centered around him, but in the second half, we struggled to create such plays.
