As soon as Montagno, a foreign player from E-Land FC in Seoul, was substituted, he exploded his scoring instincts.

Montagno led the team's victory alone by exploding multiple goals for the first time this season. Seoul E-Land jumped to third place by beating Busan I-Park with Montagno's two goals.

Seoul E-Land won 2-1 in the home game of the 26th round of 'Hana Bank K League 2 2024' held at Mokdong Stadium on the 10th thanks to Montagno, who was substituted in the second half, scoring two goals in just 10 minutes. As a result, Seoul E-Land has continued its unbeaten rise in the past three games (2 wins and 1 draw), ranking third in the league with 38 points, beating Chungnam Asan FC (37 points).



On the other hand, Busan has recently won two consecutive games. However, the ranking remained in sixth place. Bucheon FC failed to reverse its ranking, losing 1-2 to the Ansan Greeners. Both Busan and Bucheon are the same with 32 points, but Busan is ahead in multiple points.

Both teams failed to score in the first half of the day. Seoul E-Land struggled with Busan's aggressive offensive in the first half. It fell to about 4-6 in ball possession, and the number of shots in the first half was 7-8. Seo Jae-min and Kazuki tried several shots that scared the opponent. The goal didn't go off.

A similar pattern continued early in the second half. Then head coach Kim Do-kyun put in Montagno in the 27th minute of the second half without Jung Jae-min. The replacement operation was a great success. Montagno showed sharp movements as soon as he got on the ground. The first goal was scored six minutes into the game. In front of two Busan defenders, he fired a surprise right-footed shot to penetrate the goal.

Three minutes later, he scored an additional goal with the help of Byun Kyung-joon. He scored two goals in the nine minutes since he was put in. The momentum of Seoul E-Land soared.



Busan scored a comeback goal four minutes later. Ramas scored a comeback after receiving a pass from Mrafah. Seoul E-Land could not be relieved of its victory. There was a lot of time left. Seoul E-Land increased its defensive concentration. In the end, he did not lose any more points to Busan, and he sealed the victory.
