[Summary of Coach Yasuma's Press Conference]
"Above all, I would like to express my gratitude to the many fans and supporters who came to this match and supported us."
The match was really good, as we fought patiently and delicately against Kagoshima, who is currently in 4th place and has a sharp counterattack. This includes the 4 teenage defenders and Suzuki, who played as an anchor.
During halftime, there was a very active communication, and Muriqui, Anton Burns, and Nathan Burns were all involved regardless of age, which was a very good sight. I think it was great that each of them was able to assert themselves through repetition.
However, I believe that the emotions that professional sports undoubtedly bring are important, so I hope that the fans and supporters who came today had a good emotional experience and can take back the best emotions. I want to continue to make more and more efforts.

【Player Comments】
《Ogawa》
"I think it's good that we were able to finish the game without conceding any goals as a team. However, there were many dangerous situations in terms of defense, and although we created decisive chances in the attack, not being able to score any goals remains a challenge."
Personally, I think the defense was fairly stable, but in terms of the attack, I think we need to be more aggressive and the accuracy of crosses was really bad today. So, I want to create more decisive chances on my own and build the game more solidly.
(Although the DF line was made up of young members) I was the oldest in the DF line, and I was the only one who had experience with the DF line in J1. So, I tried to convey the speed of that DF line by raising my voice.
(What is your enthusiasm for the next match?) Whether it's J1 or J3, I always give my all and fight, so I want to play a game that will impress the fans and supporters."
