Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon said "He is a good goal scorer. I hope you get rid of it quickly. As a person, he seems to be under pressure psychologically, but I hope he overcomes it quickly." Joo Min-kyu said, `I know my scoring pace is disappointing. Just looking back on my current play and doing my best. Thank you and sorry to the fans who are supporting us," he bowed his head.
Based on the modified three-back, head coach Kim took out Joo Min-kyu, Kim Ji-hyun, and two-top cards. Joo Min-kyu couldn't open the goal. However, he won a penalty kick and struggled to turn the tables. Ulsan also won three valuable points on the road.
Ulsan, which is trying to win its third consecutive K League 1 title, has maintained its lead by winning five consecutive league games (4 wins and 1 draw). Ulsan won 1-0 with Boyanich's penalty goal in the 32nd round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2204' against Daejeon Hana Citizen at Daejeon World Cup Stadium on the 27th. Ulsan, which scored 58 points, widened the gap with second-place Gimcheon Sangmu (53 points), which played one less game, to five points.
Daejeon, which has a busy way to go, has lost seven consecutive games (4 wins and 3 draws). With only 35 points, the relegation battle became fiercer.

Coach Kim countered with a 3-5-2 card. He said "I wanted to see Joo Min-gyu and Kim Ji-hyun's two-top." In the midfield, Jang Si-young, Boyanichi Arabidze Ko Seung-beom and Yoon Il-rok built a thick layer. Lee Myung-jae, Kim Young-kwon, Kim Ki-hee, and Cho Hyun-woo wore goalie gloves.
Daejeon drove Lee Soon-min to a rough physical fight at the start of the game. Ulsan's Kim Ji-hyun attempted the first shot in the 7th minute of the first half, but was caught by the opponent's defense, and Daejeon's Lee Soon-min opened the door in the 10th minute of the first half.
Ulsan took the lead with a high ball possession, and the contrast was mixed in the 16th minute of the first half. Lee Myung-jae's cross ball headed to Joo Min-kyu. Lee Sang-min grabbed it and knocked it down before Joo Min-gyu received the ball. The referee took out Lee Sang-min's yellow card with the penalty declaration.
The penalty kicker was Bojanic, not Joo Min-kyu. Boyanich scored neatly. Daejeon did not overdo it in the first half. Martha's left foot shot in the 37th minute was in front of the goalkeeper.

Coach Hwang put in Kim Seung-dae and Oh Jae-seok at the start of the second half. Daejeon had a decisive chance in the fifth minute of the second half. However, Kim Moon-hwan's right footed shot slightly off the post.
Coach Kim took out Lee Chung-yong's card instead of Jang Si-young in the 11th minute of the second half. Lee Chung-yong presented Joo Min-kyu with a perfect goal opportunity a minute later. However, Joo Min-kyu slid Lee Chung-yong's cross and touched it, but it didn't hit properly, and the ball fell into Lee Chang-geun's arms. Joo Min-gyu was replaced in the 29th minute of the second half.
Hwang put Kim Hyun-wook and Kim In-gyun in the 29th minute of the second half, Mateus and Yago in the 24th minute of the second half, and Kim Min-joon and Lee Kyu-sung in the 29th minute. Daejeon boosted its momentum, but Kim Joon-beom and others' shots were blocked by Cho Hyun-woo's wall.
Ulsan's Lee Myung-jae, who received Yoon Il-rok's pass in the 41st minute of the second half, connected with a left-footed shot, but it was caught on Lee Chang-geun's toes. Ko Seung-beom's shot in the 42nd minute of the second half was also in front of the goalkeeper.
Daejeon put in Chun Sung-hoon in the 42nd minute of the second half. However, he failed to open the goal in the end. Chun Sung-hoon faced a decisive header chance in the extra time of the second half, but he was in front of the goalkeeper, and Kim Moon-hwan's left-footed shot and Chun Sung-hoon's subsequent header were also blocked by Cho Hyun-woo's good defense.
