Trial-match comments
Oswaldo Oliveira
(Head Coach)
- (Congratulations. This is your first win since taking over as Urawa Reds manager. How do you feel?)
"Thank you. It was a very tough Trial for us. We have been preparing the team with little time. Yesterday's Trial was the third full training session since I arrived, but as it was the day before Trial, we were trying to save the players' energy and were not able to do much. We had some difficult times at the start of Trial, but thanks to the efforts of the players we were able to get into shape. I think the players showed the ability to lead to victory on the pitch."
(During the first half, the midfield was very tight and there were scenes where you played tough defense against the opponents. What was the background to that and what was the actual effect?)
"We didn't have much time to prepare, but we expected Trial to be a bit tough and difficult at the start of the first half. However, as you said, we were able to execute the plays we were trying to do, and I think the players were able to use the space with confidence. Furthermore, being able to use the space led to even more confidence, and I think that allowed us to dominate the game."
(I've known Koroki, who scored two goals in today's Trial, since his days with Kashima Antlers. What do you think of Koroki now?)
"Koroki is a player I'm very fond of. I first met him when he was very young, as a number seven striker. I'm still glad that I took a chance on his abilities. It's good to see him succeed and become an important player. And I'm also happy that he scored the winning goal."
(I think today's Trial was one that could be said to be the type of football that Coach Oliveira himself is aiming for.)
"This victory will give us the composure and courage to carry on. It was difficult to prepare for Trial against Kawasaki Frontale, the Japanese champions, who have a very varied attacking style, with just one training session in one day. For us, the important thing in today's Trial was to neutralize the starting points of their plays. This is where dynamic plays are born, and it is the starting point that allows our forwards to thrive. I think that the players are beginning to understand their individual roles and are able to confidently show their quality. I don't think that if you're in a good mental state, that will translate into execution."
(You were down to 10 men for the last 20 minutes, but was there any problem with how you ended the game?)
"We have not yet been able to train for situations like that, which is why we ended up in that situation. I think we need to train for situations where we have one more player and can win if we don't concede a goal, and although that is what happened in the end, we were not able to train for that. There are also situations where we need to score even with one more player, and I think we need to train with those in mind as well. In any case, when the opponent has fewer players, I think it's necessary to use the width of the pitch and aim to score by using the open space. Of course, I think we also need to train for situations where we have fewer players. There are situations like that where we absolutely have to score.
I don't know if you remember, but Trial where Atsuto Uchida was sent off at Todoroki Stadium, and the other team was leading 1-0, and Koroki scored the tying goal. I have had that experience. There are other situations I don't want to remember, but there have been similar situations in the past. For example, it was in the 2007 season. When you are leading, even though you are one player short, it is important to play defensively and not concede any goals. In the 2007 Trial, my team scored a goal when we were one player short, and then we defended in a situation where we had to avoid conceding any goals.
Thank you everyone."
Opponent team comment
Toru Oniki
(Head Coach)
- ``A lot of our supporters really created a good atmosphere, but I'm really disappointed that we couldn't win there.I'm most disappointed that we couldn't win.
In the game, we were able to fight so aggressively with 10 players in the end, so I wish we could have shown more of that attitude from the beginning. However, in the end, even in that situation, the players came together as one and aimed for victory. I think this will really lead to the next game, and I think we need to continue to do so."
