Trial-match comments

Gert Engels (Head Coach): "I'm glad we won, but it was a typical cup fight. I'm used to that kind of thing from being in Germany, but we had chances in both the first and second half, so I think if we had scored an early goal it would have been a completely different Trial. But in Trial between first division teams and second division teams, it's normal for the first division team to win no matter how you look at it. If a lower division team wins, it's a miracle. The lower division teams played with that mindset and went all out, aiming for counterattacks from solid defence, and in that sense today was a typical cup game.
Unfortunately, we couldn't score, so the game went into extra time, and Tulio's tenacity earned us a penalty kick, which gave us a 1-0 lead. However, it was unfortunate that Hosogai was sent off after that. He's been playing well in consecutive matches recently, but he's still young, so it's not good that he got too excited so quickly. He'll probably miss the next match against Sapporo (November 8th, Round 31). That's very unfortunate, but the cup is a win-or-lose game. I'm glad that we were able to advance to the next round today.
"The next game is a different tournament, but we've won two Trial in a row and kept a clean sheet, so our next challenge is to win and stay focused. We have to look at it positively."
There's still a lot of time until Saturday, but it's a very big Trial for us. Tomorrow is a day off, so the day after tomorrow we'll talk about today's Trial, and then we'll get ready for the next game against Sapporo.
Two good things are that Tatsuya was able to start for the first time in a while and show a good performance. There was one play that could have been a penalty kick. He moves well and is difficult for the opposing defense to catch. Also, Keita is still feeling a bit sick, but he was able to start for the first time in a while. That's also a positive thing. Abe and Taka (Takahara) were able to refresh themselves a bit. So we want to win again next time and prepare well."

Opponent team comment

Kazuhito Mochizuki (Head Coach): "The players really tried their best and Trial their hardest for the entire 90 minutes. But in order to improve our ranking, we needed to play in the extra time. We needed to improve our ranking."
