■Director Takayuki Kiyama
I think the players were really encouraged by the fact that so many people came out in the rain.
In the match, they were able to express what they had cultivated during the camp. We were able to create chances and take the lead, and were able to calmly progress through the match. It was good that we were able to score, and we were also stubborn in not giving our opponents any openings or opportunities to counterattack, so in that sense we got off to a good start.
However, the game is still alive. There is always a partner and various changes occur. I want to work hard so that I can respond properly and become stronger in the process.

I was aiming for the goal, so I’m relieved that I got it, but I had a few chances before I scored, so I want to push harder.
(For the goal) I thought that when I carried it with my dribbling, I was able to get it to the shot. I wasn’t sure whether to hit it far or near, but I had a lot of experience of hitting far and missing in such situations, so I decided to try swinging it near, and I’m glad it went in.
There are many different types of players out there, but my strength is that I can sneak in behind the ball and create a dribble. I just got a chance to be in the starting lineup today, so the season still continues, and I think that working hard together will lead to promotion.
It had been a while since he started in the starting lineup at home, so he was nervous, but the support from the home crowd gave him strength. I felt that the power of home is great after all, and I’m glad that we were able to share this moment of exploding joy.
