Head Coach comments after the match

Head Coach

It's really disappointing that we couldn't win the first game at home. With the 2nd Leg coming up, it's important that we switch gears and get ready to go.

Q: What do you think about the Head Coach after Oh Jae-Suk was sent off and we were down to 10 men?
A: After the restart, we were hit with a shot and the score was 2-2. I think we lost our composure at that point. If we had been a little more calm and responded more firmly, I think we didn't need to concede the third goal. We conceded one goal from our own attack, and then the third goal was conceded, so it was a very wasteful loss, but I think this is also part of our current strength, so we'll switch gears with two days off and look forward to the next game.

Q: You used Nagasawa to score the first goal, and I understand that this was a good choice, but what were you aiming for when using him?
A: We played 120 minutes with only three days in between games, so we used the fresh Nagasawa. He scored a goal, and I think he scored a very fresh goal, so I think he lived up to our expectations.
