Seoul won 1-0 in the 24th round of 'Hana One Q K League 1 2024' against Gimcheon Sangmu at Seoul World Cup Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 21st. With this victory, Seoul secured sixth place.
Seoul led the game against No. 1 Gimcheon, but it was a shame at the end. While Gimcheon also failed to target Seoul's defense, the first half was over. Coach Kim Ki-dong strengthened his forward mobility by adding Kang Joo-hyuk at the beginning of the second half. Seven minutes into the game, Kang Joo-hyuk won the ball with tremendous determination and made Ilyuchenko score. Seoul escaped for the second consecutive time by blocking Gimcheon's last-minute offensive. Seoul has won five consecutive games at home.
After the game, coach Kim Ki-dong said "It was an important point for the team. At an important time, fans and friends came from Dangjin, my hometown, to cheer for me. I allowed my friends and fans to go back with a smile. There were many problems in the third term, so Choi Jun was put in place. There's a formula when you defend. I heard you memorized the formula all night. It helped me a lot in defense. I played the leading game because I was energized there. He has won five consecutive games at home, but has won five in a row. It's important to win at home. I'll prepare to go further," he said, expressing his feelings about the victory.
As to whether Choi Joon's use of the third term will continue, it became a boost by playing a separate role. I think Choi Joon will take on such a role until Ki Sung-yueng returns, and move forward." For the time being, he expressed his intention to continue using Choi Joon as the center as a temporary measure.
The result of this game was early in the second half. Kang Joo-hyuk, a 17-year-old striker, changed the atmosphere of the stadium and served as a starting point for Lee Il-Chenko's score. "Originally, Joo Hyuk was brought as a wing forward. (Kang) Sungjin has good skills, but lacks speed a little. Sungjin couldn't play the role when the pass went into the space today. I expected the role from Juhyuk. He said, "The input was right in that kind of economic trend."
Palosevic will say goodbye to Seoul after this match. "It wasn't even a situation where we could replace the position again. I'm sorry, but it was a really important match, so I couldn't score Palosevic to save one goal. I was sorry. He simply told me if I was okay because I couldn't play. He smiled and answered, "It's okay."."
Will Kang Joo-hyuk be chosen by Kim Ki-dong in the future. "I tried to keep using him, but there was an injury. It was a pity that I had an injury in a part that was easy for six months in high school. I'm on my way to my condition. It's a necessary resource for the team and the style I want, so I'll keep using it," he said, expressing his trust in the player.
Willian's position is dwindling. "I trained 10 days ago and now I don't have a big problem. I'm improving my condition. There is nothing wrong with the body," he said, giving only a theoretical answer.
