"Riku HIROSUE"
"Although there were moments where we were able to push forward in the first half, we couldn't score and the momentum turned a little negative. However, I think it was very good that we were able to keep a clean sheet in coordination with the defense."
Even after scoring a point, there were many times when we were pushed back, but it was really good that the whole team was able to defend persistently and keep a clean sheet.

(First appearance, first start, victory with a shutout, how was the tension?)
Although it was my debut match, I didn't feel any tension at all and I was able to play the game while savoring the happiness of being able to play among FC Tokyo fans and supporters.

(Did you feel embarrassed when you did 'Sha'?)
At first, I didn't understand it well, but I noticed when other players called out to me.
Honestly, I apologize for any inconvenience, but since I thought it was going to be player Kobayashi (Miki) doing it, I asked for your consideration and let him do it (laughs)

(Were there many fans and supporters who were waiting for their first appearance?)
We had a tough time when things didn't go well, but there were people who supported us during that time, and it was reassuring. We want to continue using that as our strength and keep going.

(What is the difference between previous matches and J-League matches?)
I felt a different level of passion from the fans and supporters.
During my time in the Premier League (high school days), there were fans and supporters of FC Tokyo on the opposing team, and I was under considerable pressure.
However, this time, being in a position to be supported, it was a very reassuring presence.

(What are your thoughts for the next match?)
We were able to achieve our first victory in J3, so I hope we can continue this positive momentum into the next game."

Yoshitake SUZUKI
"It is a big thing for the team to be able to achieve our first victory, and I think it was good for the team to be able to respond firmly to the opponent's power play in the latter part of the previous match, which was a challenge."

(How was your performance?)
In terms of the offensive aspect, there were noticeable mistakes similar to the previous match, and the number of times going forward was also limited. I still think there are many challenges ahead.
The defensive part and the ability to pick up second balls, I feel like I was able to do better compared to the previous match, but I still think the recovery rate is low, so I want to improve it.

(What are your thoughts on the next match?)
I think it was a big thing to win, but I also want to continue as a team and strive to improve my performance little by little."

"Summary of Coach Tadashi NAKAMURA's Press Conference"

"It was the second home game and the first game of the season at Ajinomoto Field Nishigaoka. We are grateful that many fans and supporters came to cheer us on and we were able to share the joy together."

I think the game was very difficult. We struggled with the opponent's power, height, and speed, and we couldn't play our own soccer for a long time.
However, the GK and center back often repeated the task of bouncing back and picking up loose balls.

"We couldn't show much of a challenge in the attack, but as time passed, the number of attacks gradually increased and we were able to score and hold our defense."
