Cheonan City FC recently escaped from the swamp of '4 games winless', exploding '4 goals' in the second half alone against Seoul E-Land. In addition, he avenged his loss by allowing '4 goals' in his first face-off on May 15. E-Land, on the other hand, was frustrated again in his third consecutive attempt of '4' this season. He emphasized the players' mental armament to shake off the disappointment of the three consecutive failed attempts, but he couldn't handle Cheonan's goal storm. A hot attacking football was played to blow away the hot and humid weather. Cheonan City FC and Seoul E-Land exchanged a total of seven goals in the second half alone.
The last one who laughed was the away team Cheonan. Cheonan defeated E-Land's pursuit by 4-3, achieving its sixth win (6 draws and 10 losses) of the season. Cheonan added three points and rose to the 10th place (24 points) in the league. E-Land, on the other hand, failed in its bid to win three consecutive games, falling to fourth place (31 points) behind Chungnam Asan (34 points), which won on the day.
E-Land, which has been on the rise with two consecutive wins recently, has tried to win three consecutive games for the fourth time this season. Coach Kim Do-kyun said, `I tried to win three consecutive games three times and failed. This time, he emphasized mental armament to the players. "The opponent will also come out strong after losing a big game in the last game." Against this, Cheonan coach Kim Tae-wan said, `We will be aggressive because our defense is weak. I think the second half will be the outcome."
Director Kim Tae-wan was right. In the first half, the goal was not scored amid tightness. Cheonan opened the offensive in the 9th minute of the first half with the strong shot of Moon Moon-ho. Yoon Sang-soo blocked it with punching. E-Land also attempted a mid-range shot in the 17th minute of the first half when Park Min-seo was in a corner kick, but the goalkeeper was also saved. In the first half, the clues to the attack were rarely solved.
Fireworks erupted at the start of the second half. E-Land reorganized the line first. At the beginning of the second half, Bruno Silva and Kim Oh-kyu were put out without striker mobility and defender Kim Young-wook. However, Cheonan made a preemptive strike while the defense line was reorganized.
Cheonan, which succeeded in intercepting in the midfield early in the second half, continued to dig in the gap in the opponent's camp. The side was pierced. Kim Ryundo took over the ball that Moon Moon-ho stabbed to the right from the front of the box, advanced to the near the goal line, and shot at the goal from an exquisite angle. The ball slipped through the legs of Yoon Sang-boo's keeper and shook the net.

E-Land strengthened its attack further in the 10th minute of the second half by removing Lee Joon-seok and putting in Byun Kyung-joon. It worked. An equalizer was scored in two minutes. Bruno Silva penetrated the box from the left and hit a cutback pass to the center. Cha Seung-hyun, who was rushing from the center, fired a shot directly to equalize. It was Cha's first goal of the season.

Six minutes later, E-Land flew again 'Bang-gun'. This time, Kim Min-kyu's header was blocked by Je Jong-hyun keeper in a corner kick situation, but Byeon Kyung-joon pushed the slightly out ball and tied it again. Byeon Kyung-joon's fourth goal of the season. It was the moment to break the season's most goals (3 goals) achieved last year.
Eland's equaliser joy, however, did not last long. He allowed a comeback goal just two minutes later. Cheonan also collapsed the right corner of E-Land. Park Joon-gang fell and crossed after a physical fight with the defense, and Mota in the center pushed it lightly. E-Land's defensive line kept collapsing.
Cheonan's scoring streak didn't stop. This time, I even followed my luck. Osmar dribbled in the center and lost the ball by mistake. Cheonan flooded into the center. Yoon Sang-boo's keeper ran to the front of the box, slid and cleared the ball, flying in front of Jang Sung-jae in Cheonan. Jang Sung-jae immediately kicked the ball into the goal, drawing a large parabola.
E-Land recovered one goal in the second minute of the second half with Park Min-seo's strong shot from a free kick chance. However, there was not enough time to catch up with the two-goal gap.
