Trial-match comments

Maciej Skorza

(Head Coach)

"We didn't start as well as we would have liked. At home, in front of our fans and supporters, we wanted to go out stronger.

We haven't had very good results in our last few Trial, so I think we were a little nervous in today's Trial and weren't able to start calmly.

And even on days when we don't have a lot of pressure from the front line, we need to be a little more stable in defense. The first goal we conceded was a great shot from the opponent after a side change, but we need to get closer. The second goal we conceded was the same as the one we conceded against Shonan Bellmare.

However, there were also times when we were able to steal the ball from the opponents during high pressure. For example, the pass from (Haraguchi) Genki to (Maeda) Naoki was made after the ball was recovered from the high pressure.

Today's Trial may have been one in which we needed a trigger. In the Shonan match, we played well and scored goals, but if we had scored a goal just before the end of the first half, Trial may have been different.

At halftime, we brought on two fresh players, Takuro Kaneko on the wing and Samuel Gustafsson at defensive midfield, and we tried to use the spaces between the lines or the wingers to get behind the defense and use diagonal balls to attack.

That's what I wanted to do from the start of today's Trial, but at halftime I told my fullbacks, 'Let's play more offensively.' We created chances in the second half, and I think we could have caught Trial, but we just didn't have enough decisive power at the end.

After four Trial, we are in a very difficult position. After the opening game against Vissel Kobe, I had higher expectations of the team. But in this consecutive three Trial in one week, we lacked the energy and attitude we had at the start of the season.

We have four days of practice before Trial, and Matsuo (Yusuke) is now able to play longer, and we hope that Watanabe (Ryoma) will also return. Ryoma is a very important player.

First of all, we need to think about how to stabilize our defense. My team's strength is originally its stable defense, but I want to fix that as soon as possible. If we can stabilize that, I think the whole team will be able to fight with more confidence."

Opponent team comment

Ricardo Rodriguez

(Head Coach)

"I think the players played a fantastic first half. We scored two goals and created several clear chances to score more. At the same time, Kojima (Kyosuke) made a great save against a clear chance by Urawa at the end of the first half, and I think that was a big factor in us finishing the first half with the score at 2-0.

In the second half, we had time to keep possession of the ball, but on the other hand, Urawa came out more aggressively and we were often on the defensive. We analyzed that Urawa's attacks from crosses in particular were very dangerous, and the players responded well to that aspect as well. I think they played a great Trial.
