Q: "VAR has been fully implemented in the J.League and was actually applied today, and although it turned out to be a negative result for Gamba, what are your thoughts as the Head Coach on the suspension of matches and recent developments surrounding refereeing?"
Head Coach: "Simply put, I think it was good. It allowed everyone to have a clear understanding. Of course, we had heard in advance that the cameras for today's match could not be set up next to the goal, so even though the footage was at an angle, the referee made a firm decision, which I think helped everyone understand and avoid any vague feelings of dissatisfaction. I think we, as well as the spectators, will get used to the interruptions from now on."

Q: It's been a while since we started with a four-back formation. What was your intention behind this and how did it go?
Head Coach: "I think it was a good feeling, because everyone was communicating well, especially in defense, and we changed the formation a little, and we could hear voices from the pitch discussing when to go and steal the ball, and what kind of slides were necessary, so I think that was good. In terms of offense, it has the advantage of being able to exchange passes at a closer distance than in the previous system, and of course, when I considered the characteristics of the players, I thought about going with four. I think that our team's style is to have the ball and advance more advantageously, and I adopted it today because I wanted to use it as an opportunity to regain that style."

Q: Regarding the question about the four-back formation and the characteristics of the players, I think that the four-back formation with two defensive midfielders was much better today, including Ideguchi's strengths and dynamism, but I wonder if the way Ideguchi was utilized had something to do with the choice of the four-back formation. And although it's not his main position, I think Suzuki was able to use his height as a left back, which I think will lead to a positive outcome in the future, but what is the Head Coach's evaluation of this?
Head Coach Miyamoto: "As for Ideguchi's question, that's absolutely true. He tried as an anchor and as an inside half, but there were scenes where he wasn't able to make full use of his own characteristics, so I thought that by having the two of us do that together, we could achieve a performance like the one we saw today. Suzuki's versatility, being able to do a lot of different things, is a big help to our team, and today I think he showed his physical strength and height as he improved. I think it was a good performance."
