Player's comment after the match.
< No. 9 Akira Takase>
I'm happy to get 2 goals today.
But I actually couldn't play how I wanted....
For 1st score, I decided to kick to the right side, but GK already expected.. So I have to practice more not to show my decision.
For 2nd, Keisuke's pass was great, so I just scored.
Next game is our final game for 2008. I will score to make our team win!

< No.11 Shunsuke Sunaga>
Pitch condition was not so good because of raining, I couldn't con troll the ball in the beginning.
In 2nd half, we could get our possession after Dalian player sent off.
Let's finish up with all happy faces!

● No.5 Takatoshi Uchida
Good thing in this game was that we had never give up.
I actually just recovered from injuries, but it can't be excuses..
As a professional, we always must play hard to win.

I will take this result -lost- seriously, and i will do my best.
Please run together and have taste of winning! See you at Stadium.

● No.7 Keisuke Ogawa
We could start well, but we let them score at the moment lapse in concentration...
I actually didn't feel any big difference with oponents in past 2games, but we still lost as refer back to the result.
I would like to win in last 2games and finish this season in good humor.
I'm sorry we couldn't win even many supporters came and cheer us.
We will win last 2 games! Please continue to support us.
