Actually, it's a bit unfortunate. It's also because I didn't bring the result given the content of the game. I think I let the player down a little bit because I missed that chance at the end. I feel very sorry for the hard work and dedication of the players because I didn't get compensation for missing the chance.
Of course, that's the responsibility I have to take. My goal is to become a stronger player through that. I think that's the part that needs to continue to move forward.
In terms of performance, I think both teams played really well. Obviously, due to the circumstances of the game, the game was played in different conditions under different improvements in the atmosphere. Obviously, both teams played well, and I think it would have been better if we had focused a little more and played what we were doing. That's one more game to go, starting with me, but I think these are things we need to improve for the next season.
Q: There was a side where the team's schedule was twisted. We lost four games in a row in the process. However, I think there is a part where the team gained experience and improved through those four games in a row. In particular, if you look at today's game, there was something that made you feel that the team has grown.
Obviously, I think there were some difficulties that young players felt burdened by playing in difficult situations and facing difficult results. I think those things definitely helped me.
I hope this can be helpful not only for this season but also for the next season. I hope the players can do these things with a little more responsibility because I think we can become a stronger team and a solid team next season, instead of going through these experiences easily.
- We have one final game to play. We need to finish fifth to advance to the European competition.
Just as we started this season fantastic, I think we should finish it fantastic. Of course, it's not as fantastic as it was when we started, but I think we need to prepare well for the game in the way we want to play football and the way we play.
"I'm sure it's going to be a difficult game. I think Sheffield has been relegated this season but they've obviously been a very competitive team. Away games are definitely not easy either. Since it's the last game, I think the players will need more concentration. I'll take those parts well and prepare well to finish well at the end."
