"Shuto ABE"
(The feeling of attack)
"I felt that Nagoya's defense was solid. There were many scenes where they were able to take the ball even when I got inside, so in the second half, I aimed for the sides and deep positions. There were several really good scenes, so I think if we continue that, we will score more goals."

(Following the Yokohama FC match in the previous round, the start of the game was good)
"Since we had a good start in the Yokohama FC match, we wanted to continue that. Also, everyone had the desire to dominate Nagoya and each individual was able to be aware of that, so I think we had a good start."
The coach also told us to go for the second ball, and especially me and Aoki were conscious of it. So I think we were able to touch it before the opponent and connect it to the attack."

(Considering the current situation, I don't think 1 point is enough to secure a spot in the ACL)
"I think we need to earn 3 points to aim for the ACL and we also need to score more goals. However, if we continue to play intense matches like today, the results will definitely come. Based on this match, I want to continue in the next match against Urawa."

Yuto NAGATOMO
(I think I almost perfectly defended)
"Matheus on the opponent's right side is a wonderful player, and he was also the starting point, so I entered with the feeling that I would never lose in a one-on-one situation."

(What I was conscious of after being at a numerical disadvantage)
"Even though we were down to 10 men, I didn't want to play timid soccer. On the contrary, I conveyed the message of "let's go forward" and I think everyone showed an aggressive attitude."
I think everyone did their best without feeling like one person was missing.

(After the second half, he shouted out after stopping the opponent's 1-on-1, but I want to instill that kind of passion)
"I want to show the heat and fighting spirit. By showing it, I think it will also lead to the team gaining momentum, and that includes the atmosphere of the stadium. The whole team made a guts pose with the desire to play passionate and competitive soccer."

"Tokyo - Summary of Coach Kenta HASEGAWA's Press Conference"
"It was a game that we wanted to win. I think we played a game that could have been won in terms of content, and even though we ended up with 10 players, if we could win, the team would ride on that momentum. That's what kind of game it was."
I think they played a passionate game and it was truly a fantastic match in terms of content.
That's why I think that red card was a dampener, or rather, an act that should not have been done.
There, I talked to Leandro after the game, and he was very reflective and said he would never do it again.
However, since this is the second time, we also want to reflect on it properly and prepare together so that we can have an intense match in the next game."

(Will the battle after losing one person lead to the future?)
"I think it is our duty to continue playing intense games at home."
I want to make the fans and supporters who come to watch happy, even if it's just a little.
Although we couldn't deliver a victory today, the players showed their heartfelt performance.
I think the feeling was conveyed to the people who came to watch. We have to continue playing games like this for the remaining 8 matches.

(The open time was long, but as expected)
"We couldn't break Nagoya's block or defensive formation unless we went forward from the beginning, so we started off strong."
I think that's where we took the lead and Nagoya also started to come out a little.
Today was a bit humid, and I think it became an open game due to both teams being physically exhausted from playing three days ago.

"Nagoya - Massimo FICCADENTI Coach Press Conference Summary"
"The first half became a very difficult development."
The distance feeling is really bad, so I couldn't connect the ball, couldn't go to steal the ball, couldn't even hook it, and there was a time when I was almost unilaterally beaten, and as a result, I conceded a goal.
Fortunately, an equalizing goal was scored, but it was a bit lucky. Immediately after that, they created several decisive chances, and we couldn't really hold them back in the first half.
In the second half, we reorganized the sense of distance, but rather than not being able to do anything about it, it became an open development where we could also counterattack in reverse.
Both teams had chances to score, but it was a difficult match as control did not go well until the end. However, with this many matches played, it is inevitable to have a few games like this in a year. It's not a concern for the future of the team."

(What kind of instructions did you give after the opponent had a player sent off and gained a numerical advantage?)
Considering the momentum just before, Tokyo was attacking by utilizing the individual characteristics of the forwards such as speed and long balls. Even though they became 10 players, it doesn't mean that those characteristics disappear, and even in an 11 vs 10 situation, there are many cases where the team with 10 players can score. So, there was no need to fundamentally rearrange the way of playing.
If the opponent had 11 players and constantly filled the court attacking, there might have been a different outcome.
Cutting the remaining cards here, Ryoya MORISHITA created a decisive chance, and if he had scored, it might have been said that he "made excellent decisions by effectively using the advantage of having one more player". However, even if it became 11 vs 10, I don't think it would have become something that decisively changes the game in that time period."
