[Player and Coach Comments]

"Takuya UCHIDA"
"Since there were many U-18 players, I approached the game with the feeling that I had to lead."
We were able to pass the ball from the first half and also had several chances to go for a goal.
I was able to create chances for myself and also move towards the goal in the second half.
However, I personally feel that the challenge lies in scoring goals, so I would like to improve the quality.

(The ball was moving at a good pace, but what was the feeling?)
While the ball was moving, I think we were able to rotate it quickly because we were able to do well with the movements of the third person.
I think the tempo will increase by increasing not only the movements of the first two people, but also the movements of the third and fourth people.
I would like to review the entire team, including myself.

(It seemed like he was playing in a more central position than usual?)
The opponent's system was 3-4-3, so I heard that their side players were attacking.
I was told by the coach to receive the ball inside and develop the play.
I think it was good that I was able to receive the ball inside and create a chance in that sense.

(What is your enthusiasm for the next match?)
This time, the performance was good, but the result was a draw, so I want to do my best to win the next one."

Takahiro YANAGI
"The fact that the opponent was undefeated motivated everyone to approach the match with high motivation."
I think it was important to win. I wanted to end with a victory because the game was good.

We were scored against first, but I think everyone persevered until the end and the result was a tie goal, so I want to take that positively and use it to our advantage in the next game.

(I was actively trying to make something happen)
In today's game, since Insoo YU was not there, I thought it would be difficult to create chances from crosses, so I tried to take matters into my own hands and consciously go for the finish myself.
"However, it was good to finish with a shot, but I think if we focus a little more on the accuracy of the final shot, we can create more opportunities."

"Summary of Coach Tadashi NAKAMURA's Press Conference"
"With it being a home game, I think the players were able to approach the match with high motivation thanks to the many fans and supporters who came to cheer them on."

The game was disappointing as we had a player sent off in the previous match and conceded multiple goals.
Of course, the players who fought until the end ran well, but it became such a game, so let's get 3 points in front of the fans and supporters this round.
Let's win. The opponent is the top team, but we have conveyed the message to play our own football.
I think the players entered the game with a high level of concentration.

He always tried to play with a strong determination and physicality towards the goal, but the opposing team was of a high level and both individually and as a team, they were extremely impressive.
We still lacked the power and ended up conceding a goal first.

However, what can be evaluated is that from the beginning to the end, they aimed for the goal, and even in the final scene, they were able to score a tying goal with 3 or 4 people jumping into the goal area. I think this is a positive factor.
