Incheon United manager Cho Sung-hwan expressed his sincere feelings to Incheon and Incheon fans ahead of the farewell match in the 21st round of the K League 1 against Kim Cheon Sang-mu at Incheon Football Stadium on the 5th.
Coach Cho announced his voluntary resignation ahead of the Gimcheon match. Incheon has been sluggish in its last seven games with three draws and four losses. He suffered from the line injuries of key players such as Lee Myung-joo and Hernandez and the transfer of Chun Sung-hoon. Coach Cho Sung-hwan made a decision, saying it was time for a change in the team. He expressed his intention to resign to the team taking responsibility for his poor performance, and the club accepted his resignation after much consideration on the morning of the 5th. In August 2020, he stepped down as Incheon's 11th head coach four years after taking office. He succeeded in staying by settling Incheon, which was in the relegation zone, in the final 11th place, and recorded fourth place in 2022 after eighth place in 2021, making history for the club's first Asian Champions League (ACL) entry. Coach Cho announced his resignation after slowing down a bit to fifth place in 2023 and falling to ninth place this season. Coach Cho, who informed the team of his resignation before coming to the stadium, said there is no time to be swayed by emotions and get emotional, saying, `Let's focus on the game in front of us,' `''Life history, `Don't turn me around, and I hope it can be a turning point for a reversal.'"I couldn't sleep because I had mixed feelings.""He was grateful for the members. I just put a spoon on it." Coach Cho, who vowed to win after eight games ahead of the Gimcheon match, said, `Everyone should give up all their selfish thoughts and go all-in"I'll leave the water in every game and cheer and pray for Incheon to do well."
