[Player and Coach Comments]
《Yojiro TAKAHAGI》
(This was a milestone match for the 300th game in J1)
"First of all, I'm relieved that we won."
I am happy to be able to win a milestone match at home.
I think there have been various things since becoming a professional.
I believe this season is particularly difficult.
It is a very difficult situation for the J-League, for Tokyo, and for the whole of Japan right now.
Thanks to everyone's cooperation, we are able to hold the match like this. I want to express my gratitude for being able to play soccer.
I believe that this accumulation has led to a total of 300 matches in the J1 League.
I would like to thank everyone who has supported us up to this point.
(Smiles were seen during the pre-match ceremony)
"I tend to be the type to enter the match feeling relaxed."
I usually don't smile that much, but seeing my wife and two daughters before the match warmed my heart and made me want to win today's game even more.
(Team's determination for the future)
"We are in a position to aim for victory in all tournaments."
"Each match is important, and I want to fight for the acquisition of all titles."
《Kensuke NAGAI》
(Reflecting on the second goal scene)
"Ogawa provided the pass at the right moment."
After that, when I faced forward, I saw the shooting course, so I took the shot.
It was a goal that I thought had gone in the moment it was struck.
(The coach mentioned that the first half was not very good)
"There were many small mistakes in the first half."
The way we lost was not good, and there were moments when we were slow to switch and ended up conceding on the counter.
I think we were able to connect the second and third goals by properly correcting that part as a team in the second half.
(Regarding individual condition)
"I was in a fresh state today, so I was thinking of responding with results."
I think it's great that we were able to achieve solid results.
(How do you perceive the point difference with Kawasaki)
"I believe it's important to take it one match at a time.
Even if we look up, we have more matches played than other teams, so we want to focus on winning the upcoming match.
Rather than focusing on Kawasaki, we are aware of our goal to win.
《Hirotaka MITA》
(About the shooting scene that led to the opening goal)
"I focused on getting the shot on target. It would have been better if I could have finished it with a cleaner shot myself, but I’m glad that Tagawa was well positioned to create a blind spot and it led to a goal."
(I heard that your child was born)
"Yesterday, the baby was safely born. I told my wife that I would win today's match, score a goal, and do the cradle dance. In the end, it didn't count as my goal, but I think I did well."
(Regarding finishing today's match with a victory without consecutive losses)
"After the next match against Yokohama FC, there will be a week break, so I want to end the last match of this series with a win, and I want to solidly wrap things up in a good mental state for the upcoming series of matches."
《Tokyo - Summary of the Press Conference with Director Kenta HASEGAWA》
"First of all, it was good to win at home. However, regarding the content, especially in the first half, we struggled to get into the game and had a poor start for 45 minutes. The only positive aspect was that we were able to take the lead in a good way."
Although we somewhat recovered in the second half, today's performance cannot be praised throughout the 90 minutes. If there is anything to take away from today, it is that we earned 3 points despite the poor performance.
(At first, it seemed like we weren't syncing well with the opponent)
"Shimizu took their position well, so we couldn't clarify things easily. However, I think we were able to correct that in the second half."
(Leandro has been suspended for 3 matches)
"As for rough play, we should reflect as a team on actions that do not comply with the rules. I apologize for plays that make viewers uncomfortable."
It is fortunate that Yuki YAMAMOTO of G Osaka has not suffered any major injuries, but I would like to apologize to both the player and G Osaka.
Leandro also received a warning once and was cautioned by the disciplinary committee. We were also careful about such plays, but we needed to prevent recurrence. It is my responsibility that the same thing was repeated. It is behavior that the club should reflect on. In the future, I want to play in accordance with the spirit of fair play. I told the players that there is a difference between intense play and dirty play.
《Shimizu - Peter CKLAMOVSKI Coach Press Conference Summary》
It was a disappointing result.
We were able to get off to a good start, and there were good moments when we had our flow. However, in the first half, we conceded a goal from a set piece. Until that point, the opponent had not entered our penalty area, and we were in control, but unfortunately, the match took a disappointing turn.
In the first half, it would have been better if we could have posed more of a threat to the opponent, but the final pass was not very good at the end.
I think we were able to create good chances, and we were able to get into the opponent's penalty area, reaching the point of delivering the final pass.
I want to improve on that. For the second goal we conceded, we need to respond with better defense, and the opponent created a good chance and finished it well. After that, we continued our style of play and managed to make it 1-2, and we were building momentum, getting close to scoring our second goal. During that period, there were moments at the end where our passes went off target. We were creating chances, but as we entered the final stages of the match, the opponent scored their third goal and pulled ahead.
