Jenswiszing (Head Coach): "I think we played a great game away from home. It's disappointing that we lost in the penalty shootout, but I think we were able to win the ball back effectively and maintain compactness in defense. Throughout the 90 minutes, I don't think we allowed the opponent to do anything particularly significant. There were maybe one or two opportunities in the first half, but there were practically none in the second half. We were also able to show our speed in transitions. We lacked judgment and precision in the final passes in front of the goal. However, the game ended 1-1 over the 90 minutes, and I think it was a good game for both teams."

Q: "During the consecutive matches, you introduced some new players. How would you evaluate their performance?"
Head Coach Jenswiszing: "It was a difficult away game, and with a tough schedule, we had 2nd year of junior high school, while our opponents had more time to prepare. I think we have a good lineup of players, and we were able to control a lot of the game. We were able to show that we have high quality players, control the game well, and that we can play well no matter who is on the field."

Q: How would you rate the offensive aspects of the match as a whole?
Head Coach Jenswiszing: "I think we were able to maintain compactness. We expected the opponent to press high, so rather than launching an immediate attack, we aimed to maintain compactness, win the ball back, and then launch attacks through transitions. We didn't create any clear-cut chances, but I think there were many instances where the ball could have gone through. Also, in terms of the final pass, there were times when we passed the ball into space instead of to the feet, creating a chance, and vice versa. I think we weren't able to express our freshness well today in those areas. There are some things that can't be helped with playing so many matches in a row, but even though it wasn't an easy situation, I think the players gave it their all, showed a fighting spirit until the end, and were able to win the ball back even when we lost it."

Q: "You won your last match against Kyoto 2-0, but this time you lost on penalties. What do you think of today's result? Was it due to fatigue, or were you unable to perform as you wanted, or was the opponent's strategy better?"
Head Coach Jenswiszing: "Last time we won 2-0 in 90 minutes. Today we ultimately lost on penalties, but we're looking at how we fought for 90 minutes. I don't feel like we lost because of the penalty shootout. Freshness isn't a factor in penalties. We've played 20 matches from the start of the season until today. I don't think there are many clubs in the world that have played this many matches in such a short period, and we have to respect that. I think the players fought with discipline, playing away from home against an opponent that wasn't easy to beat. I don't really feel like we lost."

Q: "Usami made his first start since the opening of the season. How would you evaluate his performance this season, including his overall performance?"
Head Coach Jenswiszing: "He got injured in the opening match, but it's great for the team that he's come back in good condition. It's good to see his high quality and leadership on the pitch. He may not be at his best yet, but it's up to him to improve from here."
