When they enter the stadium with concentration and fighting spirit without burden, they make good judgments and score goals, but recently, it seems that a slightly loose scene has emerged. A good team that needs to be improved is at the beginning of the season. and the end is consistent.”
He continued, “It’s a pity that we can’t do our thing regardless of the opponent’s situation. A good situation came when the players played with speed, such as a more bold and confident judgment, but recently, forward strikers seem to have a problem.” did.
