"Masato MORISHIGE"
"It was a tough game, so it was a game where we had to make the most of our chances."
The scene of conceding was not so much about the opponent, but rather we collapsed and allowed them to score.
"I think if we don't tighten up in both offense and defense, we will lose points."

(What is missing as a team?)
"The areas we need to improve as a team are decision-making and conceding goals, which have been a result of individual mistakes. We all need to raise the quality of our defense in those areas."
"We have been conceding a lot of goals that seem like nothing recently."

(Did you feel the opponent's momentum and strong emotions?)
"We knew from the beginning that they would play that kind of soccer, so we had to surpass them."

(Also, it is important to continue playing consecutive games)
"I think it's important to switch gears and keep moving forward."

"Keigo Higashi"
(The first half seemed to be attacking with a good rhythm)
"I think the content itself was good. Because it's soccer, we have to focus on scoring goals."
The game situation can change depending on whether you take it or not. I feel that we need to learn from Fukuoka's physicality and mentality.
"I think it's not bad to continue challenging through the matches."

(I felt that if we couldn't finish our chances, the second half would be tough)
"It's a common situation in soccer."
I want to focus on scoring goals against any opponent in any game. I want to continue the good parts firmly."

(After conceding a goal, the team seemed to be flustered, but the players' impression)
"When the opposing team scores a goal away, the atmosphere in the stadium becomes one of 'we can win', so we were a bit flustered there. However, there were also good parts outside of that, so we want to take a positive outlook and continue on firmly."

(To rebuild the team after a losing streak)
"We have to thoroughly analyze the good and bad points, and discuss with the players to move forward."
"We want to create a good flow again in the next Levain and connect it to the league game because it is sandwiched between Levain."

(We will have to fight consecutive battles)
"Even if we look down, there's nothing we can do. Even if we fight with all our might, there are times when we will lose."
Before facing Kawasaki, we hadn't lost and when things were good, they kept getting better. A long season has many ups and downs.
"It's not good to have an atmosphere where everything is considered a failure just because we lose a little. So, I want to analyze and reflect on it properly and move on to the next one."

"Makoto OKAZAKI"
(Played as a side back, but what did you focus on during the game?)
"I entered the game with the mindset of using the reflection from the Kawasaki game's start and playing simply first."
"I was conscious of sending the ball simply behind players like Diego OLIVEIRA and Adailton, or flowing it to the side."

(In the first half, we could see the Tokyo style, but looking back on the game)
"I think it would have been better if we could have defended more aggressively and prevented easy crosses by putting our bodies on the line."
Playing as a side back was the first time in a while, but I felt like there was more I could have done.

(Lost 0-1)
I think Fukuoka had the upper hand as a team in the match.
I felt the strength of thoroughly doing what I should do, and I think we also need to continue to refine our way of fighting as a team while repeating daily practices and games.

"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"We were unable to break Fukuoka's goal in the end."
I think Fukuoka was fighting with their emotions on the front line.
I don't think it's because we didn't do it, but I think it's because of the small difference that led to pushing through at the end and putting our bodies on the line at the end.
Today, I think Fukuoka played a great game."

(Feeling the strength of the opponent and the sense of the team composition today)
"In the first half, we were able to create several chances, so in that sense, we felt confident in the first half."
In the second half, during the time of conceding, the opponent's Sugimoto player cleverly infiltrated and broke down the right side, leading to a goal.
I think we should reflect on the fact that we were unable to play our own soccer as a team after conceding.
"We changed the members during the water break to increase the intensity, but ultimately we were unable to break Fukuoka's goal."

"Fukuoka -Hasebe Shigetoshi Press Conference Summary"
"I think there were big chances for both teams to score multiple goals."
Either team could have won. However, both teams had strong defenses, so it seemed like it would be a 1-0 win or a 0-0 game.
It was actually such a game, but Bruno Mendes, who joined this season, scored, and there were various "firsts" such as Jordy CROUX's debut match, but I hope we can continue to repeat good "firsts" from now on.
