"This time, I emphasized mental armament to the players to achieve three consecutive wins."

Seoul E-Land, which has recently been on the rise again with two consecutive wins, will try to win its first three consecutive wins of the season at home.

This is the fourth time this season that he has won three consecutive games. The previous three attempts all ended in failure.

It was exciting with two consecutive wins after the opening of the season, but lost 0-1 to Bucheon FC in the third round. In May, he defeated Ansan (11th) and Cheonan (15th) in a row and tried to win three consecutive games, but lost to Jeonnam 1-2. The third attempt was also canceled. They beat Suwon Samsung and Gyeongnam FC on May 25 and June 1, but lost to Anyang 1-2 after the A-match break.

Kim Do-kyun, head coach of Seoul E-Land, said "Always collapsed ahead of three consecutive wins. So this time, he put more emphasis on mental armament to the players." In particular, he stressed the need to be wary of Cheonan. He `would have prepared better because the opponent lost big in the previous match. It can be difficult. I told you to arm yourself mentally."

Through this game, foreign player Osmar, the core of the team's power, will achieve a total of 300 K-League games. Director Kim said "That's amazing. As I felt and thought when I first recruited him, he plays a pivotal role in the team and is playing a good role in offense and defense. There is a big difference between when Osmar is present and when he is not. He has a great presence,' he said, praising Osmar's performance.

Coach Kim continued to say that his opponent, Cheonan FC coach Kim Tae-wan, viewed the second half as a match for him, saying, `I expected it to be so after looking at the lineup. We also have strike Kim Gyeol, Byeon Kyung-joon on the right and Bruno Silva on the left. I play the game for close to 100 minutes, which would be better to run in time for the second half. We can definitely take the change.", he said, signaling a counterattack in the second half.
