“Thank you for choosing me to level up.
At first, Okubo (Tomoaki) was holding the ball on the side, so I thought about supporting him and creating some damage on the outside.
I saw Sakai (Hiroki) coming around while he was up, so I thought I could create some space by moving back, and if my mark caught Sakai, I was able to get inside and get to the shot, so I stepped back and created some space.
It's important to live your own life, but if your team and allies are in good condition, I think it's better to take advantage of them, so I always keep in mind that I look at my surroundings and make decisions.
I think it's a really simple play, so I'm really happy that there are people who are watching my play, even though at first glance Okubo and Sakai are a really good combination.''

“Thank you for choosing me for Level Up Play.
Overall, our formation is usually high and allows us to steal the ball from the front.
Ienaga (Akihiro) was on the side, so in this situation, the first thing I would have done was to stop the ball with a foul or something, but my decision was quick and my body timing was quick, so I was able to make a solid block. It's the situation.
I would be happy if children could learn about this kind of play and decision-making."

``First of all, Tsuzuki-san, thank you for choosing my play.
In my mind, Mr. Tsuzuki is an eternal legend, so as a goalkeeper I was very grateful that Mr. Tsuzuki was watching my play closely like this.
As for this play, as Mr. Tsuzuki said, I think that Yuma Suzuki's course was almost a near one because he did not fall down against the first shot and properly recovered himself.
The course was a bit easy, but even though it was near, I practiced saving well, so I was able to put what I had learned in practice to good use.
I was able to respond to this situation with great mental composure, so I'm glad I didn't concede a goal.''
