[Player and Coach Comments]

《Adailton》
(Although there were 2 goals, looking back on each)
"I am happy that we were able to score, but it is very disappointing that it did not lead to a team victory."
I want to win next time and stop the losing streak.
The first goal was carried by me, and in the end, Leandro scored from a superb through pass.
For the second goal, Leandro stole the ball, and when I entered the area from there, he passed it to me, allowing me to score.

(Collaboration with Leandro)
"I think we make a good combination. We understand each other and can express our needs, which allows for good collaboration."

Kensuke NAGAI
"We were able to score the opening goal well, but the times we conceded were at the end of the first half and the beginning of the second half, so I feel we need to focus more on that."

(Although I came on as a substitute, what was I conscious of while playing)
"I felt we were being pushed back a bit, so I thought I should play aggressively to push back again."
Although we were able to take many shots, they did not lead to results, so both as a team and as individuals, we must improve.

(What was necessary to catch up)
"I feel that we need to be decisive in our finishing. I had chances, and other players had chances as well. I want to delve deeper into those aspects."

(Although we are on a losing streak, I think the situation is different from when we lost five in a row. How do you feel?)
"I think the timing of the goals conceded is not good.
In the match against C Osaka, we conceded a goal at the start of the second half, and today we were also caught off guard at the beginning and end of both halves. We need to approach the game with greater concentration.

(It won't be easy to score as the opponent is also preparing for Tokyo, but it will be important to find a breakthrough)
"We have to keep pushing forward."
I think that by doing so, we will be able to earn free kicks near the goal and create more chances.
"Also, if we don't increase the movements to overtake the previous players, goals like scoring from loose balls after a shot won't be created."

《Tokyo - Summary of the Press Conference with Director Kenta HASEGAWA》
"It was a wasteful match. We were on alert, but we were pulled to the sides from the first half and couldn't tighten up the inside."
We need to reduce the three goals we conceded, but if we focus only on that, we will lose our current strengths. Although we lost to Sapporo today, I want to avoid being too negative and prepare for the next match.
It was a match where each team's strengths were showcased. In that, the opponent was a step ahead.
The players gave their all to play to win. I want to view the fact that we were able to score positively.
It is important to continue the good aspects and improve the bad ones, and since we have been conceding more goals in the last few matches, it is crucial to eliminate preventable goals.
I want to reflect on today's match thoroughly and prepare for the next match.

(Regarding Diego OLIVEIRA's injury situation)
"It's not that serious, but he played in the last match while carrying an injury. Due to the rebound, he decided to skip this time."

(Game plan in the absence of Diego OLIVEIRA)
"Tagawa and Nagai are thinking of filling the gap, and I believe they both showcased their strengths.
It would have been even better if Tagawa could have been involved in the scoring, but he showcased his strengths. However, considering the overall balance, I hope he becomes even more robust.
Nagai played in a way that turned the team around, and I believe the chances at the end were because Nagai was there.
I want to continue to have high expectations for his performance.

(In the second half, areas that needed improvement)
"When Jay came in, we had to be careful about Kogashi's runs. In the previous match, there was also a scene where Kogashi made a run.
Additionally, since Kaneko was repeatedly making attempts from the side, I told Yoshifumi not to let him do that, but he was brilliantly beaten there.
At this crucial moment, where it matters which team scores the next point, we are currently in a situation where we cannot hold back any longer. I want to provide detailed feedback to the players while watching the footage.

(Towards the next)
"Since we were able to take the lead, we were able to improve the initial part.
We want to continue training as a team to maintain the attitude of going for the next goal without falling back into defense after scoring.

Summary of the Press Conference of Sapporo Coach Zoran PETROVIC
I think today's match was very fast-paced and intense. I want to commend the players from both teams who made such a match possible.
Regarding the content, we conceded a goal in the third minute due to being slow to respond to the opponent's strong start, which made the situation difficult for ourselves.
However, while we couldn't quite take control of our pace, we were able to gradually push back from around the 15 to 20-minute mark.
It was very good that we were able to score the equalizing goal among them.
They were trying to push forward while continuing to control the ball, but conceding the second goal due to their own mistake was painful.
The driving force of the two Brazilian players was amazing and very challenging to handle.
Still, both the players and I had a strong desire to somehow make this match ours, and with the intention of scoring to build the team's momentum, we brought in two players at the start of the second half.
They played with momentum from the start of the second half, and it became a wonderful development as they were able to equalize and then take the lead from the intended scenario.
Tokyo's play was wonderful, and there were some close scenes, but the entire team managed to hold on, and in the end, the players secured the victory.
The players showed their determination to win at all costs, and I believe it was a match worthy of victory.
