On the other side, Japan’s coach, Park Joo Bong, faced disappointment and the task of explaining his team’s performance. Despite their best efforts, the Japanese team faltered in the final. Park mentioned that Akane Yamaguchi’s inability to maintain her rhythm in the third game was a critical mistake. He also noted that Kento Momota’s fatigue from previous matches affected his performance.
Park defended his team selections, explaining that Yamaguchi was chosen because of her favorable head-to-head record against Chen Yufei. He admitted that their reliance on Momota was a result of the gap in performance level between him and Kenta Nishimoto. In the end, Japan’s hope for victory in the men’s doubles did not materialize.
