Our biggest goal this year
Win the national powerchair soccer championship for the fifth time as a club
Revitalize team communication and increase the sense of unity even more than last year
2024, which has been built up by going back to the basics
We have not been able to prepare perfectly, but we feel that we have definitely become stronger
Despite some issues, the team won the first day in a row to advance to the semi-finals on the following day.
Next, we will challenge the wall of the semi-finals, which we have not won in the last two years.
Our opponent in the semi-finals was DKFBC Discovery, a rapidly growing team in recent years.
A tough schedule of three games on the first day
And they beat RedEagls Hyogo, the two-time consecutive champion, to win the semi-finals.
Moreover, they won three games in a row without their mainstay player!
In this fateful semi-final, their opponents have added a mainstay player to their lineup, and their momentum is threatening.
Without forgetting the disappointment of last year's semifinal defeat, they have thoroughly improved their basic skills.
Looking back on the game, they now believe that they may have been overconfident that their desire to win was greater than their opponents.
We were prepared to concede one goal, and sent out the players with the goal of scoring two or more goals to win the game.
Although this was to be expected, the first goal was conceded early in the game.
After that, we had several chances to score, but we couldn't get the ball back.
At this point, we realized that we had not communicated to the players how we would fight in each period of the game in an inferior situation.
The harsh reality is that there is nothing we can do about it now.
I believe in my players, and I also value moving so that they can think and respond flexibly on their own
Nevertheless, the message from the coach should have been more clearly communicated
Time passed mercilessly, and the whistle blew to end the game
The biggest reason for this defeat was the manager's lack of self-discipline.
As the clock ticked down, the players were struggling without a clear idea of what to do.
The work to instill a common understanding as a team was too much of a chore
Winning the third-place game 1-0 after overtime will lead to the next step.
Next year, we will convey everything to the players and turn the magic of words into power.
All of this is summed up in one word, “communicate fully.
