"Ishii-Ose" joined a press conference ahead of the ASEAN Club Championship group stage Round 4, preparing to host Dynamic Herb Cebu. The match will be broadcast live on Thairath TV.
On 27 Jan 2026 GMT+7, Masatada Ishii, head coach of BG Pathum, along with player Takagi Ose, attended a press conference before the ASEAN Club Championship, also known as the SHOPEE CUP 2025/26, group stage Round 4. They are set to host Dynamic Herb Cebu from the Philippines amid crucial circumstances in the race to reach the semifinals.
"Takagi Ose," the Japanese midfielder from BG Pathum, shared the team's readiness and emphasized an important lesson: "We will try to apply what we've practiced as much as possible in the game, especially after the previous match against Tampines Rovers, where we initially led but ultimately lost 2-3 after being overtaken."
"We will do our best to prevent the same situation from happening again. Both Thai League and cup matches have their own challenges," Ose said.
Meanwhile, "Masatada Ishii," BG Pathum's head coach, clearly reaffirmed the team's goal. Despite being new to the position, he stressed that the objective is to win every competition. "No matter the tournament, our goal is victory. Tomorrow is the final home game, a crucial match where we must secure points. I want to invite fans to come watch and continue supporting the players. This game is very important for advancing," said the Japanese coach.
BG Pathum United currently holds third place in Group A with 4 points, tied with Cong An Hanoi from Vietnam. Two matches remain: hosting Dynamic Herb Cebu on Wednesday, 28 Jan 2026 GMT+7 at 19:00, and then visiting Selangor FC on 4 Feb 2026 GMT+7 at 20:30. Both games will determine who advances to the semifinals of this competition.
