Trial-match comments

Maciej Skorza

(Head Coach)

"After six unsuccessful away Trial, we finally achieved our first victory at this special venue, the National Stadium. Our players were able to execute the tactical aspects individually and as a team.

The players worked hard from the start and maintained tactical discipline. I think we were able to control the game Trial, but there were times when we were a little too deep in the game.

Today's striker was (Matsuo) Yusuke. He's a great runner and has great skills, so we Trial more balls to the back. Other than that, there were many other elements that went very well. For example, in defense, Hiro (Hirokazu Ishihara) and (Kaneko) Takuro were able to effectively contain the opponent's diagonal balls, which they are good at. Also, in the Machida match, it was important to recover the second ball in both attacking and defensive situations, and I think we did a good job of that as a team.

And I think that our offensive players, such as (Samuel) (Gustavsson), (Matheus) Savio, and Takuro, who are skilled in the game, did a good job defensively against the opponents' five-back and two-shadow formation.

Finally, a lot of fans and supporters packed into this wonderful stadium called the National Stadium, and we were able to play in an atmosphere that almost felt like a home game. I would like to thank all the fans and supporters. I haven't been able to bring them much joy recently, so I think today was good.

Opponent team comment

Go Kuroda

(Head Coach)

"Partly because it was the National Stadium, and partly because last year's match ended in a draw, we went into the match with the determination to somehow settle the score. However, we conceded goals from corner kicks and short corners, and then the goalkeeper gave us an open path, allowing Matsuo (Yusuke) to break through the center. That's what it all comes down to, but I think the fact that we conceded goals exactly as we had been wary and careful about made the whole Trial difficult for us. We still need to be more cautious than complacent, and we need to take our countermeasures and responses to the next level. I think this is something we need to learn from.

In the second half, (Mitchell) Duke came on and we were able to create a few chances with him as the starting point, but I felt that we lacked the quality to create more scoring opportunities. There were some very tall players creating a wall in front of the goal, so it was very difficult to get the ball over there, but I think we need to be more proactive in creating those kinds of chances and making plays that are scary for the opponents. In any case, I feel that it is difficult that we had to play in this way after conceding a goal.

However, this year's league is pretty close, with many teams constantly changing positions with only one or two points difference. We're not at Pos of the table, so we want to switch gears. After five straight Trial, we were pretty tired, and we had quite a few injuries. We'll have some time off here, so we'll use it well and get our heads up and ready to go into the next away game. We don't want to let this negative moment affect us, so we want to switch our mindset and go into the next game."
