"Masato MORISHIGE Player"
(Looking back at the goal scene)
"First of all, the ball was good. I have confidence that I can score if a good ball comes, and Ogawa player gave me the ball just as I imagined."

(There were also position changes during the match, and I was conscious of that at that time)
I was conscious of the build-up aspect.
"I tried to change the situation by feeding from my own position and taking off one card. In the first half, we couldn't play smoothly, so I thought that if we could settle down without being flustered in the second half, our time would increase. So, after changing positions, I played with that awareness."

(The correction points were that)
"In defense. While it is important to reduce goals conceded, it is even more important to defend as a whole and we have been inconsistent in the past few games, although the first half was not bad."
If everyone can aggressively go after the opponent's ball like in the second half, I think we can compete advantageously. I hope we can play while discussing how to defend against the opponent, keeping in mind the image of the second half today."

(I think we will become a spectator-less game, but for the next match)
"It is unfortunate that a state of emergency has been declared at a time when fans and supporters have gradually started to increase in the stadium, but I want to play while feeling the joy of being able to play at least. It is lonely without fans and supporters, but we want to fight firmly for the fans who support us in front of the TV."

(About the current team situation)
"It's not that everything is bad, but there are some good aspects that we can see from ourselves."
However, it is common in football to give the opponent a chance and concede a goal with just one shot due to our own mistakes. However, how to prevent that is connected to each individual's mindset, as well as the attention to detail in terms of closing down and pressing. These little details can prevent goals and lead to scoring goals, so we want to improve our precision by just one step or half a step."

(Regarding the result of three consecutive losses)
"There are parts where I am disappointed and frustrated, but on the other hand, overcoming this situation can only be done by our own strength, so I want to take a positive attitude and turn this situation around."
Next, I think we need to prepare for the Levain Cup and the league day by day by training firmly.

"Takuya UCHIDA"
(What I focused on when I came on as a substitute)
"Since it was my first time playing as a side back, I was cautious in defense but also tried to create chances in the attacking phase, attempted assists by carrying the ball myself, and was conscious of going for goals like in the Kawasaki match."

(How did it feel to actually play?)
"I think there were many plays that I felt like I was able to do, but there were also things that I couldn't do. I want to improve on those aspects and contribute to the team by activating it more, creating opportunities, aiming for goals, and adding accents to the attack. Those are also my strengths, so I want to continue playing while improving on them."

(Although he had been an accent as a right back, he made efforts in the attacking aspect)
"I was conscious of the part of crossing the ball and carrying the team forward."
In the first half, we didn't have much time with the ball, so I thought I could create time even as a fullback. I think I was able to have a different way of holding the ball and getting involved in the attack compared to the first half."

(The play was not something that seemed unfamiliar, but there were challenges)
"In the second half, I think the opponent's momentum weakened and we had some leeway, so we need to play more to see how much we can do in the same momentum as the first half."
I want to create more opportunities in the attacking part.
I haven't been able to score or assist in the midst of losing today. I think that's an area where I can still improve.

"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"We had a good start, but within that, we were caught off guard for a moment."
That's where Tosu's tenacity comes in, and we must not let ourselves be taken advantage of in such moments. Of course, the kicker was free, but the middle was crowded, so I wanted to make a play by either blocking his body or heading the ball in a good way.
Just in the second half, we were able to show our spirit and score a goal, and we were able to put pressure on the opponent. Compared to the previous Fukuoka match, I think our mentality after conceding a goal was good. We have conceded quite a few goals this season, so we want to focus more on scoring the first goal and continue to fight as a team."

(In the second half, we changed the system and tried to reverse the course of the game, but we had few effective attacks. The main reason was)
"In the second half, we scored one goal and had more clear scoring opportunities than in the first half. I think if Nagai, Ogawa, and Leandro had scored their shots, it would have made a difference, but we couldn't convert those chances. Also, the last-minute resilience of the Tosu players and their inability to score additional goals were factors that contributed to this."

(I think the timing of conceding in the first half was not good, but the cause was)
"I think there was a defender as I mentioned earlier in the scene of conceding from a cross."
Among them, the pinpoint cross from the Tosu player and the heading technique of player Takumi SAKAI were fantastic.
The second goal was a scene where we had to put pressure on the opponent from the defensive line when the loose ball was taken away and the ball was carried. However, the pressure was slow and the opponent was able to take a shot. We were exploited for our lack of pressure in the vital area.
There is also a part of the technique of the Tosu players to take tiredness to the point, and in the match against Tosu, there have been several consecutive super middle shots, so I think there is also a part of compatibility. Of course, it's a good shot and a wonderful goal, but last season, a shot was scored from that position.
Although there is some lack of cohesion, I think it has become a difficult situation.

(League's third consecutive loss, but current state of mind)
"I have a very strong sense of crisis."
First, we must change the flow.
A situation that could potentially lead to getting stuck in a quagmire.
We have the Levain Cup in 3 days, but I think we all need to fight together to stop this flow somehow."

(The aim of changing the second half system and how the players were sent out)
"I wanted to put more people on the cross in front of the goal, so I changed it."
"Since Tosu scored two goals in the first half, we also conveyed the message that it is not impossible for us to score."

"Summary of Tosu Manager Myung Hwi KIM's Press Conference"
"It was good to be able to secure a victory against Tokyo. Regarding the game plan, just like the previous match, we didn't want to leave our team vulnerable to opponents with strong individual players by pressing high and leaving the back open. So, we thought about it and made adjustments to our positioning."
"In the first half, we were able to execute the game plan as intended, but in the second half, we were continuously pushed back. However, I think the players fought tenaciously."

(Both in the first half and the second half, it seemed like Tokyo had control from the beginning)
"Because the opponent is also a formidable team."
It's good if you can keep up with the pace, but if you can't, just handle it as best as you can. There's no particular obsession with that.

(In the second half, it seemed that the opponent changed their system and Tosu tried to respond by changing their system, but they conceded a goal just before that. However, the intention was to fight without changing the system)
"As you can see, there are naturally differences in individuals, so there is no other way but to defend as an organization. We were winning 2-0, so pushing forward and bringing the game into our own rhythm was also one option."
There was also an away game, and the opponent was on a losing streak and seemed eager, so we were overwhelmed by their momentum.
The cause of the goal was not only giving away a set play, but also being outnumbered and being excluded as a unit.
However, we were able to create our own rhythm while moving the ball firmly on the opponent's court, and although we couldn't quite make it to the shot, I guess that's something we just have to grow from.
"I think we need to continue playing games in this kind of situation and develop our players. I also want to move forward from here."
