[Player and Coach Comments]

"Adailton"
"I am very disappointed with the result."
I wish I could have motivated the team with my own goal, but unfortunately it turned out to be a disappointing result."

(I want to repay the debt properly in the final next week)
"Today's result is very disappointing, but I hope we won't have such a result in the final."
"We want to focus as a team and prepare for the next game so that we don't concede goals from our own mistakes."

"Yojiro TAKAHAGI"
(Reflecting on the assist that led to the goal)
"I kicked the ball with the image of putting it between the defense line and the goalkeeper, hoping that someone would jump in."
Adailton player did a great job of adjusting and scoring."

(To repay this debt in the Levain Cup final, what is needed is)
"Indeed, I felt that the opponent's attack was threatening and a strong point."
We conceded goals due to our own mistakes. When we give the opponent an opportunity or a chance, they will aim for it. We want to use today's defeat in the final round.

(Is conceding goals causing a shift or loss of momentum?)
One reason is that we couldn't score in a good flow.
We fought hard and managed to score one point, but we couldn't bring the momentum to score another point.
And, we were scored against with the third goal by the opponent first.
"We want to connect this reflection to the next game because conceding goals from mistakes makes the flow of the game difficult."

(How to lift the team from here)
"There is no need to perceive it negatively, and we will use the areas of reflection for the next step."
Also, make sure to carefully observe the good aspects.
Today, we are able to score points and I think if we can defend patiently a little more, we can take one point from a strong defense and bring it into our own development.
"We want to improve the defensive aspect as a team."

"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"A truly disappointing result. I think the players did their best. We will prepare for the next game in two days and fight together."

(The same opponent will also be in the J.League YBC Levain Cup final, which will be held on Nov 7.)
"Of course, we fought with the intention of winning today's match, so it's a disappointing result.
This debt can only be repaid in the final round. I want to approach the final round in a good shape."

(If the result of this weekend's Kawasaki match is not good, we will lose the league championship)
"We want to fight with our heads held high until the last possibility is gone. We have no choice but to fight with all our might in the next Kawasaki match."

(We have been scoreless in the last two matches, but today we scored one goal)
"Scoring one goal is a small step forward."
Both the two matches before had 20 shots, and the previous match had 14 shots, resulting in 0 points.
Today, we were able to score one point, but it was good that we were able to create many opportunities. However, if we had not scored, the momentum would have been bad.
There were also some goals that could have been prevented if we had been a little more careful, especially during the times when we conceded. From now on, we have no choice but to gradually synchronize our offense and defense.

"Summary of Kashiwa NELSINHO Coach's Press Conference"
"It became a very tough and hard game, but this was expected from before the match."
Tokyo plays an attacking style of football while maintaining a fast and compact formation. They were able to neutralize the opponent's strength and carry the game with intelligence as a team.
"We were able to efficiently launch an attack by hooking the ball into the space while erasing the opponent's targeted space."

(The impact of this victory on the Levain Cup final of the same card is)
"This is a league match, and in league matches, the goal is to earn 3 points in each match, and beyond that, the goal is to finish in the top 3."
Since there are still many games left, I want to continue fighting firmly with today's victory as a momentum. Taking 3 points from a high-quality team like Tokyo will be a tailwind. Today's game was a team effort, and the fact that they were able to fulfill the parts they aimed for led to victory."
