Trial-match comments
Takeshi Ohtsuki
(Head Coach)
- "I am very happy that we have been able to advance to the finals. Yesterday, Shinzo (Koroki) and I held a pre-Trial press conference here, so I am happy that we have been able to come here together again. Once again, so many of our fans and supporters came all the way here, really supported us, and pushed us to greater heights. I have nothing but gratitude for that. I am proud of the performance of our players. I would like to win again next time and achieve something like that again."
Opponent team comment
Fabio Cannavaro
(Head Coach)
- (Please summarise this year's AFC Champions League)
"Overall, there were many difficult Trial in this year's ACL (AFC Champions League). We have many injured players, and many players who have undergone surgery. It is unfortunate that we cannot change their condition. Also, we do not yet have players in the midfield who are capable of taking important possessions. But I think you could feel our style and strong heart throughout Trial. I think you could probably get a feel for Guangzhou Evergrande's style especially in the final Trial of the group stage, the home and away Trial against China's Shandong Luneng Taishan, Japan's Kashima Antlers, and Trial against Urawa Reds.
From my perspective, we don't yet have an advantage or dominance, but I'm very happy that we've made it to the semi-finals."
(Today we had to Trial a goal, so why did Trial end without a goal?)
"What I always stress is that when we have the chances, we have to go for it harder, but today we got this result. What especially disappointed me is that we conceded a goal, something I always tell my defenders every day, I always teach them how to defend, and yet we conceded the same goal today."
(At the official press conference earlier, Urawa Reds' player Koroki said that the reason they won this Trial was because he saw the news that after beating Kashima Antlers, the coach said, "Now we can win the ACL title." Is this true?)
"I have never said such a thing. I have only been playing football for a day or two. Someone who knows football well would probably not be able to say such a thing. I also fully understand that everyone who supports Guangzhou Evergrande wants them to become champions. My job is only to analyze, manage and plan Trial. Today, after Trial, I told the players in the break room, 'You did well, you tried your best,' but in football you can't win even if you give it your all."
Can we learn something from Urawa Reds Urawa Reds wins against China's big three clubs, Beijing Guoan, Shanghai SIPG and Guangzhou Evergrande?
"I think everyone knows the difference between football in China and Japan without me having to say it. To be honest, there is a very big difference. The Japanese Football Association has made various efforts over the past 20 years to develop young players, and they are very much in the lead. When I first learned about the difference between Japan and China, I thought that Japanese players were more ahead in terms of technique, but looking at the past few years, I have sometimes felt that Japanese players have an advantage in terms of physical strength, especially in football Trial. One good thing about the Japanese team, Urawa Reds, is their strong concentration, and I would like us to learn from that. In the past, there wasn't such a big difference between Guangzhou Evergrande and Japanese teams, so I thought that they were in a position where they could be separated depending on the circumstances, but I think the difference today was in the stability of the players."
