Ulsan HD had five players, including Kim Young-kwon, Cho Hyun-woo, Jung Woo-young, residents, and Lee Myung-jae, and Gangwon had three players, including Hwang Moon-ki, Yang Min-hyuk and Kang Tu-ji, in the A match. The Taegeuk Warriors convened in Hong Myung-bo returned home on the night of the 12th, the previous day. Kang Tu-ji, the representative of Montenegro, entered the country on the 11th.
Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon excluded four players from the entry except for goalkeeper Cho Hyun-woo, who is in a special position. Cho Hyun-woo actually has no alternative. Cho Hyun-woo responded to head coach Kim's request by saying he had no problem with his condition. Gangwon coach Yoon Jung-hwan did not take them out as starting cards, but included them in the entry, and Hwang Moon-ki and Yang Min-hyuk were activated in the second half. Born in 2006 'High School Winger' Yang Min-hyuk was selected for the first time for the A national team, but did not make his debut.
Ulsan finally regained the lead by breaking through the variables. Ulsan beat Gangwon 2-0 with consecutive goals by Kang Yoon-gu and Ataru in the 30th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2024' held at Munsu Football Stadium on the 13th. Before the whistle, the two teams had 15 wins, 6 draws and 8 losses and 51 points. Gangwon was in first place with five goals ahead of the score.
Ulsan added three points and scored 54 points to take the lead. The point gap with Gangwon widened to three points. Ulsan has won three consecutive games, and Gangwon has won four consecutive games, but has lost three consecutive games (1 draw and 2 losses) after being caught by FC Seoul on the 24th of last month. Ulsan has won 15 consecutive home games against Gangwon.

Coach Kim brought up the 4-2-3-1 system. With Yago at the one-top, Rubik's Son, Kang Yoon-gu and Arabidze were in the second line. The defensive midfielder worked with Ko Seung-beom and Won Doo-jae, while Shim Sang-min, Kim Ki-hee, and Im Jong-il lined up with Yoon Il-rok. Cho Hyun-woo defended the goal.
Coach Yoon countered with a 4-4-2 card. Lee Sang-hun and Kovacevic were in the two-top position, while Kim Kyung-min, Kim Dong-hyun and Kim Kang-guk formed a midfielder. Lee Ki-hyuk, Kim Young-bin, Kim Woo-suk, and Lee Yoo-hyun were in charge of defense, and Lee Kwang-yeon wore goalkeeper gloves.

Ulsan's first goal came in the 14th minute of the first half. The pass across the diagonal of Arabidze, which was connected to Rubik'sson, was the dominant one. Rubik's choice was a cross. Kang Yoon-gu shook his cross into the net with a diving header.
Kangwon, who was caught off guard, started a counterattack with Lee Sang-heon. From Gangwon's point of view, Kim Kang-guk's free kick in the 24th minute of the first half was regrettable. Cho Hyun-woo was caught in a dynamic game, but the ball slightly moved out of the net. Director Yoon hurriedly took out the replacement card. Cho Jin-hyuk was put in due to Kim Kyung-min's injury. Ulsan played somewhat lethargic in the first half after its first goal. Gangwon's Lee Ki-hyuk aimed for an equalizer with a free kick in the 50th minute of extra time in the first half, but it was Cho Hyun-woo's face.
Coach Kim and Yoon made changes at the beginning of the second half. Coach Kim put Hwang Seok-ho and Ataru instead of Kim Ki-hee and Kang Yoon-gu. Coach Yoon put Hwang Moon-ki in place of Lee Yoo-hyun.

Yang Min-hyuk tried to cross through the right side in the 29th minute of the second half, but he was not connected to his teammate. Gangwon continued to push. But there was a lack of detail at the gate.
In the 34th minute of the second half, the trend was finally divided. Ulsan scored a net goal in a counterattack. Rubik's pass through Lee Chung-yong gave Ataru a one-on-one opportunity. Ataru calmly scored with a witty shot over the goalkeeper's height.
Coach Kim, who had some time to spare, immediately called in Yago and Won Doo-jae and put in Kim Ji-hyun and Matheus. In the 41st minute of the second half, Cho Hyun-woo showed his fighting spirit of collapsing due to muscle pain and kept the goal until the end. Gangwon failed to open the goal in the end.
