"Takuya UCHIDA"
"Unlike the usual matches, we had many young players participating and unfortunately we lost 0-3."
There were many small mistakes overall, and I couldn't connect the ball as usual.
Even in defense, we were losing in individual aspects. I think we need to be able to cling on to top teams even with young members like today.

(How was your performance?)
I made some small mistakes at the beginning of the first half, but I don't think I lost any one-on-one battles in defense. I want to take that as a positive.
However, in terms of the attacking aspect, I would like to consider how to utilize my strengths in the position I play, such as when to overlap.

(What parts have grown throughout the season?)
I think the attitude towards scoring goals and the ability to switch between offense and defense have become much faster.
I think we need to score more, but I believe that we are increasing the number of plays towards the goal, including the previous match. So, I hope we can have more action plays rather than reactions.

(Enthusiasm towards the final match)
As it is a match against teams of the same age group, we cannot afford to lose. Moreover, I have not been able to achieve personal results yet, so I want to leave solid results both individually and as a team, and make it a game that can lead to the next season."

"Manato SHINADA"
"The opponent's characteristic is their fast vertical attack, so we were cautious about it. However, there were also players who were playing in different positions than usual, which caused us to be a little slow in our response, making it difficult for us to play our own game."

(How was your performance?)
Today, I tried to quickly pass the ball vertically, but I was unable to communicate with my teammates and couldn't find the right place to pass the ball, so I couldn't increase the tempo of the attack.
I would like to work on this challenge for the next game.

(What parts have grown throughout the season?)
I think I have adapted quite well in terms of physicality and speed, and I have also gained confidence.
This will be the last game, but we want to grab 3 points as a team.

(What are your thoughts on the next game?)
As it is the final game and a home game, I believe many fans and supporters will come to watch.
We will prepare well as a team and aim to earn 3 points.

"Summary of Coach Tadashi NAKAMURA's Press Conference"

"In this kind of weather, when I stepped onto the field, I was grateful to have the support of FC Tokyo fans and supporters cheering loudly, and I approached the game with a thankful feeling."

The match was a complete defeat in terms of content.
This was the worst performance in the past few matches.

In the attacking phase, we were able to create several good attacks from good combinations. However, there were several occasions where we simply gave away corner kicks due to our own mistakes, which resulted in conceding goals.
Also, I think it was a bit of a wasteful game, with goals conceded due to a lack of concentration in some plays.

We were discussing the need to focus and enter the game as we knew that the opponent had a very speedy attacking lineup, but unfortunately, it turned out like this.

Since there is only one more game left, I want to switch gears and work hard in the final match so that everything we have done so far does not go to waste."
