"Kensuke NAGAI Player"
"I only thought about putting the ball in the frame when I took the shot in the scoring scene. Since it was scoreless, I thought that the team who scored one point would win, and when I entered the pitch with player Tagawa, the coach told me to score. It was good to be able to win as a team."

(I think I added depth to the attack by coming on as a substitute for Tagawa)
"I just went out onto the pitch with the intention of going forward. The goal scene was also a good defense, and we were able to have a good attack, it was a typical Tokyo goal. The substitute players are conscious of raising the team's gear and playing, and it was good that it resulted in a good performance."

(About goal performance)
"Also, I thought that fans and supporters would not be able to experience that sense of unity away from home due to the emergency declaration starting tomorrow."
"I went to the goal end with the thought of wanting everyone to experience it at the end, because I couldn't taste it until the away consecutive games were over."

(The coach also talked about how important it was for the substitute player to score)
"The role changes when we need to go for a goal, like today when we were winning. When it's 0-0, we have to attack and even take some risks to score. That's the mindset we have when we play."

(As a team, it was our fourth consecutive win)
"We are truly fighting as one unit, and no matter who comes out at what timing, we are able to give our all for the team's victory."
I believe it is important to continue this.

(Today's victory was due to running until the end)
"We earned 3 points together and everyone was able to work hard."
"The battle in the summer begins here, and I want to do my best to stack up victories."

"Go HATANO Player"
(About the scene of the big save in the second half)
"It was the opponent's attack from the counter, but I made sure to check my mark and calmly respond. There were some blind spots that made it difficult to see, but I think I was able to handle it calmly."

(Reasons for our good form)
"I think everyone's defensive awareness has improved and we are able to work hard. We have been able to improve on areas where we were struggling in the first half of the season, and everyone's desire to win is overflowing. We are also seeing more scenes of fighting for the ball in front of the goal, and I am able to stop balls that come flying towards our goal. I believe in my teammates and myself, and I think that is the reason for our good form."

(Today's game was a tough one, but we managed to win.)
"There were moments when we were under pressure, but we didn't feel too intimidated by the opponent's attacks and we had confidence in our ability to stop them.
I believed that if we could keep a clean sheet, the players on the front line would score and we would win 1-0, so I'm glad we did.

(Do you feel a sense of fulfillment now?)
"The GK position can change the flow of the game with one play. Right now, I am able to reevaluate my role and approach to the game, and if we can continue to keep a clean sheet, we can accumulate points. I want to play with confidence in my own abilities."

"Tsuyoshi WATANABE"
(It seemed that there was more aggressiveness than usual, but what did you focus on in the game?)
"Since it was a game with a two-week break from the previous Oita game, the coach instructed us to be more focused than usual and not to give Shonan any chances."
We had no problems with physical fitness as the game was open, so we tried to move our bodies and play aggressively as a team. I think it was a good start in the end."

(Shonan FW Ohashi, who was facing each other, was a classmate in college. He was an opponent with good ball control, but I was aware of that.)
"I knew that keeping the ball while carrying the DF was a strong play for FW Ohashi, so I was conscious of not letting him do that. There were times when it worked out well and times when we fell into the opponent's pace, but overall, we didn't let them take shots or do any decisive work, so I think we handled it well."

(In the midst of a tumultuous game with VAR disallowing goals, we showed a focused performance until the end.)
"The opponent was trying to build their attack from long balls, so I was thinking that I and player Morishige should not lose in the aerial duels."
In that sense, we were able to defend as a team while showcasing our strength as a defensive unit. I think it was very good."

(From the consecutive game period that lasted for 2-3 days, it has been 2 weeks since the last game. The next match will also have a 10-day break and will be against C Osaka, so we need to be careful.)
"From last season's experience, we know that it is more difficult to play a game after a break of 10 days or more compared to consecutive games. On the other hand, consecutive games can help maintain our condition."
The most important thing is not to slack off in daily practice. It is important to always be conscious of the game and approach practice with that in mind, so we want to prepare well for the next match as well."

"Tokyo - Manager Masaru HASEGAWA Press Conference Summary"
"Today's game was very tense, and it could have gone either way. In that situation, being able to win solidly was a big victory for us. There were some dangerous moments, but Hatano made some solid saves and the substitute player sealed the game for us. It's not something that has happened often, so in that sense, Nagai's goal was a positive result and I think it will lead to a big victory in the future."

(The intention of Nagai and Tagawa's substitution)
"It was a difficult situation to make a risky decision away from home, but we made a strategic move while considering the high possibility of winning."

(About the content)
"In the first half, Shonan also concentrated and couldn't create any chances that seemed like chances. There were scenes where the ball didn't settle at their feet just a little bit. In that situation, I talked to the players at halftime about how chances will definitely come and not to miss those chances, and to continue like this. There were also moments of patience, but substitute player Nagai scored a goal for us. I think when a substitute player scores, it gives the team momentum, and when a striker scores, it brightens up the team. So, I think Nagai's goal today was a big result for the team."

(Shonan made continuous substitutions in the second half, but overall, what do you think about today's strategy?)
"We expected Shonan to make changes based on their starting lineup. We weren't playing poorly and didn't want to disrupt our good rhythm by rushing substitutions. Especially the Brazilian trio up front were creating scoring opportunities in a very effective way, and they always have that one shot when it counts. However, we were also thinking that we needed to take a risk somewhere while waiting for that one shot."

(Evaluation of player Go HATANO)
"HATANO is a player who has been working hard to aim for the Olympics. I think there is a sense of determination after not being selected, and today there were many scenes where HATANO helped us. The 1-on-1 scene in the first half was not offside, so if HATANO had not had the courage to come out, it would not have been strange if we had been scored against. I also think that if HATANO had not intervened, the opponent's counterattack in the second half would have resulted in a goal. He was really reliable today, and I think HATANO himself is using his frustration as motivation to move forward positively."

"Shonan - Bin Ukishima Press Conference Summary"
"We are truly grateful for the passionate support from our fans, despite the unfavorable weather conditions on Sunday night at 7pm kickoff."
The game could have gone either way. However, in football, the outcome can change depending on whether or not you score in the first or second half. That was unfortunate in today's match.

(Challenges felt in today's match and what we want to work on during the break)
"The challenge is the quality of the final breakdown and the play before that inside the box."
In terms of today, I think it will be a mistake in the build-up area like that in the end.
"We have lost three games in a row, so it's not just about losing, but also about what we need to improve in our performance. Not just for today's game, but also looking back at our recent games, we want to make adjustments during the break period."
