■ Coach Kosaka Yuki
First of all, more than 10,000 fans and supporters, as well as families with small children, came to the event. Fagiano Okayama’s supporters really pushed me no matter what the situation was, and they supported me without giving up, and I couldn’t respond to that. I want to be able to take it back and express it in the next match instead of leaving it as it is.
The start of the game was as good as it was intended to be. After that, to some extent, I was able to endure where I had to endure, and I was able to play where I could play with confidence. Conceding a goal from a set play, the most damaging was the conceding goal in the second half.
Even after that, the players continued to take fighting poses, took PKs and created chances, but if the game was to be suppressed and the chances of PKs were missed, it would not be easy to score points in the lead.
I would like to improve and train for the next match against Omiya.
■ Yudai Tanaka
We got off to a good start and scored an early goal, but we conceded a goal in the second half and the match was reversed. But even after that, I was able to make a good shape. It was a loss of strength to be pushed away without scoring in such a situation.
(For the goal scene) I thought that going towards the goal would produce that kind of goal.
Even though we haven’t been able to win easily, we are happy to be able to play the match with the support of many supporters. That’s why I think there’s no point in being a professional soccer player unless you win and make a lot of people smile. It’s still going on and I’m just going to keep trying to win.
We have no choice but to win, and today’s match is frustrating, but we can’t let it end here. Finally, as the supporters also said, we have to raise our heads. I want to look forward without giving up and head for victory.
