“Hello everyone. Our ACL group stage competition begins, and we will be playing against a very tough opponent. I think the result of this first match will have a big impact by the end of the group stage.

``After a long season of fighting, we were able to safely reach the finals in May, and by winning the playoffs again, we now realize that we can be here again. As Coach Maciej said, the first game in the group stage is very important, and since it's an away game, I'm sure it will be a difficult game.We need to prepare in a way that gives us confidence to win that game. So, tomorrow we will fight as a team to express that."

[Question-and-answer session]
(I have a question for Coach Maciej. Jose Kante once scored four goals against Wuhan Sanzhen. Did you ask him about Wuhan Sanzhen and the situation?)
“Of course, I don't think it will be an easy opponent.Wuhan Sanzhen is a team that has only lost twice in the league, so we expect a very tough match.Wuhan Sanzhen is a very interesting team, with a good attack. I think this team has a lot of players and is good at build-up.However, I think they also have weaknesses, and our aim is to exploit those weaknesses and create chances.In the end, we want to fight with the aim of winning. I think"

(I have a question for Iwao. The team did not score any points in the last J1 League, which ended in a disappointing result, but how did you change your mindset and prepare for the change in the tournament?)
``The most recent J1 League ended scoreless, but sometimes things like that happen in soccer, so I would like to continue to express the positive elements of not dragging things down too much and instead creating a lot of chances. Also, we have several solutions for this match, so we want to be flexible and make decisions that will help us win the match."
