"Daiki NIWA Player" 

"If we continue playing this way, we will definitely earn 3 points. Throughout the game, we were on the offensive and the performance was good."
It is really unfortunate that we lost, but it is important to continue believing in this football.
'Next connecting match' is what I think refers to a game like today.
Of course, we should accept the defeat and learn from it, but we also didn't allow the opponent to create any decisive chances in terms of defense.
I think there were no scenes where we conceded a goal and it became 1-1.
If we had scored one goal on the offensive side, it would have definitely become a game where we could dominate and play our own style.
It's not just the fault of the attacking team that they can't make a decision.
There were also set plays and corner kick opportunities. Especially in a close match, if we can score from there, the team will feel relieved. As a member of the defense, I also have the desire to contribute, but...

　After the match, everyone in the locker room was making positive remarks. Following the Nagoya game, we aggressively made positive attempts together, and as a result, we want to prepare ourselves so that we can finally turn good performances into results."

"We moved the ball well to good areas and created many chances, and we also had several scoring opportunities."
But we were defeated by the opponent's "one shot" and it's really frustrating.
If you don't make a decision at the crucial moment... it will turn into that kind of development.

　Personally, I had several chances to take a mid-range shot.
I want to approach the remaining games with personal challenges so that I can score points in those situations.
Although we lost, I want to take it positively that we were able to regain the third place and aim to further grow in the last four matches. I want to show everyone our continued growth.

"Not being able to score was everything. I think we still lack strength. We have 4 more games left, especially at home where we haven't won in a long time, so I felt the need to train hard and secure a victory at home."

Players, I think they fought with the feeling of wanting to score somehow, and I think that the fact that they haven't been able to grasp victory as a result means that they lack strength, so I want to continue searching for various solutions together with the players from their daily training."


Q=Do you think it is better to aim for a goal by changing tactics and increasing the accuracy of the finish, or do you think it is better to keep it the same?

"I believe we need to continue to provide stimulation through training."
Today, Maeda, who had a good condition during practice, and Lins, who also had a good day today, were not bad.
I think we have no choice but to push ourselves in practice.
Even though it's called a system change, I think Kōhagi player mostly went forward and tried to score in a formation like 2-back, but the way to stop the counterattack was not very good.
However, I think there was an unlucky part in the ball that Mori Shige hit firmly into the shooting course.
The ball just went to Seibu's player.
Niwa's response should have come more from the goal side, but I don't think it was a bad response.
I think there were some unlucky parts, but the defense did a good job of not letting the shots go into the goal, so in that sense, they did well.

"It was a long-awaited victory."
I think it was a good result for all the supporters.
There have been difficult times when we couldn't win for a long time, but today we fought back based on our system with the aim of recalling the good times.
I think it was a game where the players expressed themselves well for 90 minutes.
Of course, there were many mistakes, but all the players covered for each other. We didn't concede any goals and we were able to take our chances and finish them off.
I think it's really lucky that I was able to decide in the end, but I think that's how soccer is.
With today's victory, I think we have created a foundation to once again catch up with the top teams. However, we must not let this opportunity slip away under any circumstances.
I think the players also have that feeling, so even though there are few remaining matches, we have to do our best until the very end."

Q=What is your evaluation of today's defense team?

"Tanaka and Yamashita, who made a long-awaited appearance, are players who have been training diligently. They haven't played much in the games, but I think they were able to show that kind of effort in today's match. Although we were under pressure for a long time from the opponent, our players were able to respond well. In football, I believe that if we don't concede a goal, we will have a chance to win, so we were able to seize that opportunity."
