Players of today were fighting against the Ryukyu very strong in away ways, with the courage of the players to the very end. At the beginning of the game I was behind the Ryukyus who was highly motivated, but behind the scenes we grabbed our flow gradually and at the end it was a tough game, but I could win. Although there is also a tactical aspect, I think that the height of mental and intensity levels was one key point.

There were times when the flow was bad, but I think that winning the fact that we could continue fighting for 40 minutes without cutting themselves won the victory. Last time I was losing to Mr. Ryukyu, I entered the game with a feeling that I can not lose this time absolutely, so I was able to overcome the time zone that I can not score.
