"Kensuke NAGAI player"

(Did you feel good about scoring a goal at Toyota Stadium?)
"I was happier to contribute to the team's victory by scoring the second goal, especially when the team hasn't been winning."

(The team won their first victory in 9 games)
"Finally able to get out of a long tunnel, I want to do my best to win again"

(He received the ball from Higashi and skillfully scored by avoiding the defender in the goal scene)
"I was able to face forward, so I was thinking of making a move and swinging my leg. It flew in a good direction and became an additional point, which was good."

(What was the key to today's victory?)
"We went back to basics, aggressively defending from the front and having more players coming out from the back. We were able to play the same kind of soccer that led us to our previous winning streak, so we want to continue with everyone."

 (The desire to win from the players on the pitch was strongly conveyed today)
"I think we were a little lacking in motivation in the previous match. Today, we were fully motivated and gave 100% from the beginning, and the coach also had words to that effect, so we were able to see it through together."

(With today's victory, we have come back to a position where we can aim for the ACL again)
"I want the team to come together and strive again with that as our goal."

 (For the next section)
"I will do my best to score again and help the team win."

"Kotaro OMORI player"

(First goal after transfer)
"I'm really happy!"

(Please review the scoring scene)
"Diego OLIVEIRA turned forward with his individual skill, and I was just running and trying to connect. Nagai was also acting as a decoy in front, so I think it was a very beautiful goal."

(He was running very well throughout the match. Did you have any special feelings today?)
"Not so much special feelings, but I was thinking of entering the match with a calm mind as usual, and I'm glad I was able to score a goal today."

(Away Nagoya 4 consecutive goals)
"I have the impression that I have somehow decided, but I wasn't really conscious of it."

 (Excitement towards the Cerezo match)
"We lost away, so in that sense, we have to win at home. So, we want to give our best and not waste today's victory."

"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"I have nothing to say today. I think the players fought really well, and above all, I'm glad we were able to give the fans and supporters a victory as a present."


Q=I think we didn't give the opponent the pace with early pressure from the start of the first half, but was that intentional?
"After the previous match, we trained for a week to figure out what our strengths were. We were able to utilize the abilities of Nagai and Diego OLIVEIRA to apply pressure vertically with the combined force of the two."
I think we were able to fight without losing our concentration even in the second half, and it became a valuable victory that we finally grasped in a difficult situation.

"Summary of Nagoya - Yahiro Kazama Press Conference"

"It took a little time for us to play at our own rhythm from the beginning. After that, I think the players had the ability to gradually play at their own rhythm, but really, a momentary light play in the 90-minute game decided everything. It was very disappointing in that aspect. However, I hope the players realize that they should never let their guard down for even a second, or even if they didn't let their guard down, they shouldn't make such plays."

Q: Did the game plan change due to Miyahara's injury and can you please provide information about his condition to the extent possible?
"I don't know the extent of the injury. I haven't heard much about it, but I don't think it's a minor one. The game plan will definitely change, but there are also some players who are not in their best condition, and there are players who are suspended, so I wanted him to play for as long as possible. However, other players are also training, so I didn't think the game plan would change that much. On the contrary, we were able to create some good opportunities from there, so it can also be seen as a positive in terms of improving the team's strength. It's very unfortunate about the player's injury, but I want to take a positive view of everything else."
