[Player/Coach Comments]
"Tsuyoshi WATANABE"
"We ended up conceding 2 goals and winning with 3 goals, but I feel like there are many defensive issues."
(Looking back at the goal that became the final point)
"When Ogawa sent a cross ball, I was prepared for a return, and then a good ball came from Morishige, so all I had to do was to match it. It was just a matter of flying at my own timing and being able to hit it well."
(About Go HATANO, who showed a great save)
"Both Go HATANO and I were strongly aware of the continued goals. In that situation, his positive plays and encouragement for the team are one of the factors that will lead us to improve in the future."
(Ohashi is a teammate from university, but what I felt when we matched up)
"There was a different tension than in previous games. I knew he was a great player and one to watch out for on Shonan. I also knew about the time he struggled with injuries, so knowing his background made me feel like I absolutely couldn't lose."
"Although we conceded 2 goals, I am really glad that we were able to win in the end."
(Can we continue to increase our victories from here?)
"I understand that it is really important to win difficult games, so I want to raise the team's strength by picking up these kinds of games and be able to win against any opponent in the future."
(Talking to Okazaki and exchanging words)
"Before the game, we talked about going all out without fear of making mistakes. We said that nothing good will happen if we play passively, so let's actively show our strengths. He's a highly skilled player, so he was a reliable presence."
(About being scored on first)
"It's not good to start the engine after conceding a goal, and we should be able to keep the defense at zero and play our own game. How we fight as a team is a challenge for the future."
"Hotaka NAKAMURA"
(The coach had been saying that it was difficult for the full-backs to score, but finally I was able to record an assist.)
"I finally made a goal from a cross ball from the side that I wanted as an individual and as a team."
When I actually tried it, nothing really changed.
If we are happy with just this, it doesn't mean that we will improve as a team or as individuals from here. I feel like we have finally reached the starting line.
Not just me, but we also need to activate our side attacks more, including players like Takumi NAKAMURA and Ogawa.
I think I was able to take that first step today, so I want to increase the number of steps in the future and be happy about it.
(Today I was playing as a left back, but was it easy to do?)
"During practice with my right foot, crossing with my left foot felt like doing it for real. I'm not a very skilled player, so although it was a targeted ball, not all of them went as planned. But when I thought about it, I was able to release my strength in a good way and the ball went to a good place. I have to keep challenging with both my left and right foot until I can say it went as planned. I want to use this opportunity to increase my number of assists."
(It's a cross ball that lacks power, but were you conscious of trying to go over the opponent's head?)
"I'm always conscious of trying to go over the near center back. It's something that the coach expects of me, and as a crosser, I'm always thinking about dropping the ball between the two center backs."
"Today, Diego Taba was there and as a result, we were able to send the ball there."
(How was the combination with players Higashi and Ryo on the left side?)
"These three players were members who had played together on the right side, so we were able to communicate and play centered around Higashi. We were able to play while thinking about how to free up Higashi."
(Today's feeling)
"Honestly, I don't think anyone is feeling confident."
There is nothing but challenges. Among them, the coach said that there is only meaning in winning tough games.
"I want to take the victory positively and recover quickly because there is another game against Sendai, and I want to do my best for the next match."
"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"It was a difficult game and the performance was not praiseworthy, but I think the players worked hard and were able to achieve victory. I believe it was a very important win."
(There were some difficult moments, but assists from the side back and Diego's goal were created)
"Diego became the starting point in the center and scored the second goal."
We are expecting to have a strong front line if you ride with us.
I think that the pinpoint cross was raised in an important scene today, which is more reliable when the same cross is raised on the right side about the cross ball of Hogao.
The bright result is that we were able to score from the side back, which was a challenge since last season, at an early timing of the season.
"We must continue this and fight as a team to score more points, otherwise it will all be meaningless."
(It was a situation where the opponent had control of the ball until we caught up with the tie, but we turned the tide with a goal. How did you see it?)
"We talked about playing boldly before the game. Whether it was good or bad, I was determined to watch over the players and fight in the first half."
In the previous match, Shonan had won against Sendai with a fantastic performance, and I think they were able to play with momentum and in a good mood. The players on the bench were watching to see how they would react to such a Shonan.
I was worried about making mistakes, but Tagawa's goal gave the players energy. After that, the team's movements improved and I once again felt that there is no better medicine than scoring a goal."
(How I saw the game throughout the 90 minutes)
"In the early stages, until we win, I always say 'until both eyes open', because until we get our second win, the team becomes nervous about their value, so even if we are winning, we don't want to be caught up, we don't want to lose, and we tend to have that attitude, and in the previous match we were caught up."
We talked about playing aggressively until the end of this match, but somewhere along the way, the desire to win and play carefully takes over and it becomes inevitable that the game will end up being tight.
It is tough to win just one game, but as we continue to win, the team will also get on board. However, until then, even if we are in the lead, there will always be a sense of unease. If we don't keep winning, the players will also lose confidence, so I think there will inevitably be a sense of chaos until we get on track.
I think the fact that the players won today is because they held on well.
"Shonan - Bin UKISHIMA Press Conference Summary"
"In terms of how the game went, we had the game plan we expected and we thought we could score the first goal today, so we talked to the players and sent them out. However, at that time, we couldn't have the mentality to go for the second goal after scoring the first one, and ended up conceding two goals."
The inability to break the bad flow was a reflection of the first half.
In the second half, we need to have a strong mental attitude in our attack and aim for the winning goal when we equalize from a good position. However, we conceded a goal like that because we neglected to mark our opponents properly during set pieces. We were unable to do what we needed to do at the crucial moment, which ultimately resulted in us not being able to score the winning goal.
(It seemed possible to aim for 1 point, but what do you think about that?)
"Of course, it was an away game, so we could have aimed for 1 point."
I think there was also a plan not to substitute if we were waiting for a substitution at the time we caught up with the tie and were only aiming for one point.
However, I think this game was a game where we could have taken 3 points, and we went for it, so we wanted to take 3 points."
