Head Coach comments after the match

Head Coach

Q: "In the last few games, Head Coach've been caught up at the end, but do you think that the big problem is that we haven't been able to score additional goals, or is it that we can't hold on to the end? How do you see it?"
Head Coach: "I think it was both. Of course, we played for a long time with one man down, and there were periods when we were close to the opponent's goal, so I think we had chances to score a second or third goal, and of course the way we ended the game with one or two minutes left was also a factor, so I think it was both."

Q: "Regarding how to end the game, I'm sure you've told your players about it since the previous game, but what did you tell them?"
Head Coach said, "We need to make sure we don't drop the line too much, put pressure on the ball, and take the ball we steal to a high or deep position on the opponent's side. It's obvious, but there are some things we have reconfirmed."

Q: "If Usami and Anderson PATRIC Aguiar Oliveira had scored their chances, it would have been the end of the game, but Iwata also had no choice but to resort to power plays in the final stages, so they changed their system to something like 5-4-1. What was the aim of that?"
Head Coach: "There were times when the ball seemed to be carried a little to the side of the opponent, so we tried to cover that area, and there were also times when we picked up loose balls in the center, not with one player, but with two players. Also, it was the characteristics of the players on the bench, and Usami looked a little tired, so we changed the system for those reasons."
