ran crying with his mom 😭 (from @riryschen)

it feels so much worse because they were SO close with those two set wins and playing so cleanly, it really seemed like they were gonna win. anyway it was still a great match, much closer than i thought it would be before it started and i'm happy ishikawa and the whole team were able to come back stronger from the other games

yuki ishikawa's post-match interview translated (via @palaboras on twitter)

"we had many chances to win, but i couldn’t score the closing point and i feel a deep sense of responsibility regarding our loss.

we spoke a lot about winning a medal here at the olympics but with how this match ended i think we need to take a step back and fully accept the result.

i couldn’t fulfill my duty as a captain and for that i am extremely sorry to my teammates. at the same time, i am also filled with immense gratitude that they have followed and fought with me all this way.”
