【Player/Coach Comments】
"Masato MORISHIGE Player"
"If you don't make decisions when you should, the game will become more difficult as time passes."
The game that made me feel it again.
We were able to take the lead from a corner kick, but there were also opportunities for set plays, including myself.
We need to think about how to score points as a team.
Regarding goals conceded, we do not dwell on mistakes.
It is something that the players themselves understand the most.
However, the issue was not being able to score additional points despite having many good attacking scenes.
One shot before the last shot... The accuracy of the last one or two shots was not enough.
However, that is what determines the outcome.
"We all need to work together and push through there."
Regarding "lack of accuracy". Is it a problem with everyone's perception or simply a technical issue?
"I think today's problem was mainly technical."
《Keigo HIGASHI Player》
(Couldn't show what we gained from the Kobe match today?)
"The way the game unfolds can change depending on the opponent, so it's hard to say, but today we needed to be more aggressive in both offense and defense."
In a word, I think we played "lifeless football".
Everyone works hard together and plays aggressively on both defense and offense, which has been the style under Coach Shinoda since last season. I think there were fewer scenes like that today.
"Before victory or defeat, we need to think more about what we should do..."
(Did the goal conceded just before the end of the first half have an impact?)
"If we concede a goal, our team inevitably 'drops' at the moment.
Of course, we must reflect on and correct the mistakes that directly lead to conceding goals, but making mistakes is also part of football.
It is important how we all recover from it together. I want to discuss that.
(There are many voices pointing out a lack of combination around?)
"If we have this many members, we might be expected to play 'amazing soccer'. However, it is not something that can be easily done."
"We want to firmly establish what needs to be done as the team's foundation, and then communicate with each other, sincerely exchange opinions, and listen to each other."
"Summary of Yoshiyuki SHINODA's press conference"
"It is very disappointing to have only 1 point at home."
The match started off well with a goal, and I thought the momentum would increase from there, but it didn't quite happen and the game became stagnant. I deeply regret that.
The second half after being caught up to the tie, we made adjustments on how to enter the game, but on the contrary, there were not many scenes of breaking the opponent's block, and I felt that the goal was far away.
We were put in a dangerous situation from a counterattack. As for us, we wanted to push the opponent's midfield and create more scenes of better combinations and jumping into early crosses, but we couldn't quite create such scenes.
Of course, we wanted to accumulate 3 points, but we want to carefully review this 1 point and move forward to the next.
《Q&A》
Q=What was the cause of the offensive stagnation?
"There were many backward plays. We often dropped the ball back, which made us feel pressured by Kofu's press and resulted in us dropping it again."
For example, when Muroya has the ball, he is slow to prepare to face forward himself, and the movement of the previous player is also reduced, making it only possible to pass the ball in a way that is easy to aim for a single shot.
And, after losing the ball, the timing of the approach was off, and there was no choice but to drop back.
Anyway, I feel that we fell into a vicious cycle a lot, especially in the first half."
Q=The intention of putting Abe in the second half
"At Nagai's side, there was little movement and we couldn't create time. We put Abe in again to extend our own time."
Q=About the difference from the previous match against Kobe
"I think there were problems in the build-up. Not only that, but in the first half, we often lost the ball quickly and there were many instances where the ball didn't come out even when running. The situation and the opponent were different, but we wanted to move the ball more simply and create opportunities by getting behind the opponent, but we couldn't do that well."
"Kofu - Tatsuma Yoshida's Press Conference Summary"
"I think it was a tiring game for the supporters, but I believe we were able to create scenes where the stands erupted more than usual. We had over 2,000 supporters come and fight with us amidst a very loud cheer. Some players gave their all and ended up cramping, but I think they showed enough determination, going after the ball and trying to score goals."
However, we need to quickly recover from conceding a goal from a set piece. In the first two minutes, we conceded a goal from a set piece, which in the past would have led to more goals or put us in a difficult situation. But we were able to recover in the first half and I think that was a major factor in earning the points we got.
However, during the first half, we were unable to play during the time we should have played, and even though we had brought the ball up to a high position, we were waiting for help. We fixed those areas and entered the second half. There were some difficult moments in the second half, but we never gave up against Tokyo and continued to attack until the very end. I hope that Wilson can continue to pursue the fitness required to make the most of that opportunity during that time.
Both the players and I should not always expect to be able to play in such stadiums and receive continuous warm support. I feel that we always need to show a good attitude and fight. Also, with the Levain Cup and consecutive matches, I want to continue to show a form that can address the challenges we faced today and receive support.
"Today is very frustrating."
"Q&A"
Q=Could you feel the same sense of accomplishment that you felt in the Hiroshima match in this game as well?
"I was able to do the things I couldn't do in the Hiroshima game today. In terms of balancing the risks and challenges that arise from trying, there was a consciousness of prioritizing challenges without considering balance. I want to continue improving accuracy."
Q=Regarding player Koide's first start
"He showed his strengths in his sense of interpersonal skills and his ability to attract the ball. The energy, aggressiveness, and earnestness that he brought, I think, brought a fresh breeze to this club where many veteran players are active."
Q=What was the intention behind using player Shimakawa?
"I chose to use him in the position where he was because I thought we could control our time and pace. I didn't think the space behind would come out in the second half, so I chose to use him with the intention of relieving the pressure on our CBs from midfielders Okubo and Maeda, rather than using long balls from Hyodo to the space behind."
