Head Coach comments after the match

Head Coach

Q: How do you feel about this wonderful away victory?
Head Coach Myojin: "It was a really tough match, but I am very pleased that the players fought hard until the end despite the challenging away environment and were able to secure three points."

Q: "Many fans came to the event. What are your thoughts on that?"
Head Coach Myojin: "Despite it being a midweek match, I am truly grateful to all the fans who traveled all the way to the away venue to support us. I am very happy that we were able to deliver a victory to all of you. We will continue to prepare thoroughly for the next league match."

Q: "How did you encourage the players after conceding a goal, and how did you manage to turn the game around?"
Head Coach Myojin: "Looking at the sequence of events leading up to the goal we conceded, I think it was a match where we had possession of the ball for a long time and had chances to attack in front of the goal. We conceded a goal in that situation, but it's something that can happen in football, so I emphasized the importance of not panicking and continuing to play the game for the full 90 minutes."

Q: Regarding your opponent's performance, what were your impressions before and after the match?
Head Coach Myojin: "I watched the Kashima match, but since it was a preseason game for the Jets, I thought they wouldn't be in their best condition. With the season opening this week, I thought the team would be quite different from the one that played Kashima."

Q: "Eli Adams is a former player of this team and has moved to GAMBA OSAKA this season. What are your impressions of him?"
Head Coach Myojin: "There's no doubt he's a very talented player with exceptional abilities. It took him some time to adjust to the playing style and environment in Japan, so we didn't have many opportunities to use him in matches. However, he was selected for the Australian national team and showed good performance in training. Today, especially considering it was against his former club, I think he showed a truly wonderful performance."

Q" "You brought on Dennis (Humett) and WELTON in the second half, and the winning goal and additional goals were scored afterward. Could you tell us about the intention behind the substitutions? Also, the opposing team was a fast team. Did you find it difficult to play against them in practice?"
Head Coach Myojin: "Regarding the substitution of the two players, in addition to the players who had been starting showing signs of fatigue, we also wanted to make the most of the individual strengths of the two players who were brought in later in the game."
The Jets were not only physically strong, but they were also a team that moved the ball in an organized manner. There were many instances where they got behind us, and even when we tried to steal the ball, we couldn't easily take it away from them due to their superior technique and physicality. They were a very difficult opponent.
