SAYA AMAT GEMBIRA DENGAN PERSEMBAHAN PARA PEMAIN DAN SEMANGAT KERJASAMA SEPASUKAN
Ketika JDT ketinggalan 0-1, saya tidak terlalu meletakkan perhatian terhadap perkara tersebut kerana apabila JDT berjaya menjaringkan gol, ia adalah kerana kerjasama satu pasukan, dan apabila gol kami dibolosi ia juga kerana satu pasukan. Tidak adil sekiranya anda menyalahkan dan menuding jari kepada satu individu sekiranya berlaku kesilapan.
Saya sebagai jurulatih tidak boleh melakukan perkara seperti itu kerana apabila kami menang, kami menang bersama, dan apabila kami tewas, kami tewas bersama. Memang benar, kami tidak suka apabila berlakunya kesilapan, namun kesilapan dalam satu perlawanan bola sepak adalah normal. Apa yang mustahak adalah kami perlu mengubah keputusan perlawanan dan memenangi perlawanan tersebut agar kami berjaya mengutip tiga mata penting.
Saya merasakan pada separuh masa pertama para pemain berada dalam semangat yang baik kerana pada ketika itu kami menguasai perlawanan dan mencipta banyak peluang jaringan. Apa yang dapat dilihat adalah Kedah tidak mempunyai sebarang peluang ketika separuh masa pertama namun mereka berjaya menjaringkan gol pendahuluan. Walaubagaimanapun kami tidak terlalu tertekan, kerana kami hanya mahu meneruskan perlawanan dengan corak permainan yang sama. Oleh kerana itu, kami berjaya menyamakan kedudukan pada separuh masa pertama.
Marcos telah melalui proses pemulihan dengan baik, beliau langsung tidak memikirkan mengenai kecederaan yang beliau alami. Namun mungkin kerana Marcos kelihatan agak keletihan, barisan kejurulatihan mengambil keputusan mengeluarkan beliau kerana risau akan keadaannya yang baru sahaja pulih dari kecederaan. Apabila pasukan sedang bercuti, Marcos tidak, kerana beliau tetap menjalani sesi pemulihan dan kami dapat lihat hasilnya sangat baik.
Benar kami ada melakukan dua atau tiga kesilapan di kawasan tengah sehingga memberi peluang kepada Kedah namun secara keseluruhan JDT Berjaya menguasai sepanjang 90 minit perlawanan. Kami tidak bermain secara individu kerana kami bermain sebagai satu pasukan.
Untuk persiapan perlawanan bertemu pasukan PKNP pada Selasa ini, seperti kebiasaan kami akan memeriksa keadaan fizikal para pemain terlebih dahulu. Sudah tentu kami mahukan kemenangan, dan kami juga tahu akan kemenangan PKNP pada perlawanan pertama mereka malam tadi. Kami mempunyai ramai pemain dan kami mahu setiap pemain menikmati permainan sekiranya mereka mempunyai peluang bermain. Kami hanya mempunyai tiga hari sahaja lagi untuk beraksi kembali namun kami sudah melalukan persiapan sepenuhnya untuk itu.
Saya juga ingin mengucapkan penghargaan saya kepada para pemain yang beraksi pada perlawanan malam tadi. Kerana mereka bermain bola sepak dengan baik sehingga berjaya mengubah keputusan perlawanan. Saya dedikasikan trofi Sumbangsih ini kepada DYAM Tunku Mahkota Johor serta keluarga JDT, dan sudah tentu kepada para penyokong kami kerana anda sememangnya hebat.

I'M VERY HAPPY WITH THE PLAYERS' PERFORMANCE AND TEAMWORK SPIRIT
When JDT were 0-1 behind, I did not pay too much attention on it because when JDT managed to score the goals, it was because of the team's teamwork, and when we conceded it was also because of the team. It is not fair if you blame and point a finger at an individual for a mistake.
As the coach, I cannot do such a thing because when we win, we win together, and when we lose, we lose together. It's true, we do not like mistakes, but mistakes in a football match is normal. What's improtant is that we change the match result and win the match so that we can win three important points.
I feel that in the first half the players were in a good spirit because we dominated the game and created a lot of scoring chances. What could be observed was Kedah did not have any chance in the first half but they still managed to score the first goal. However, we were not pressured because we wanted to continue the game with the same playing style. Because of that, we managed to draw level at half-time.
Marcos underwent a successful rehabilitation and he is not thinking at all about his past injury. Howver, maybe because Marcos looked a bit tired, the coaching staff decided to withdraw him because we were worried about his condition of just returning from injury. When the team was on break, Marcos wasn't because he was undergoing his rehabilitation process and we could see the result was very good.
It's true that we made two or three mistakes in midfield and gave chances to Kedah, but overall JDT controlled the game for the whole 90 minutes. We did not play individually because we played as a team.
For preparations for the match against PKNP this Tuesday, as usual we need to examine the physical condition of the players first. Of course we want to win, and we know PKNP just won their first match. We have a lot of players and we want each of them to enjoy the game when they get to play. We only have three days before we return to action, but we still need to make full preparations for it.
I also want to express my appreciation for the players who played last night. Because they played football really well until they changed the match result. I dedicate this Charity Cup trophy to HRH Crown Prince of Johor and the JDT family, and of course to our fans too because you are really incredible.
Ulisses Morais, Johor Darul Ta'zim Head Coach
