Seongnam lost 1-2 at home to Suwon Samsung in the 31st round of 'Hana Bank K League 2 2024' at Tancheon Stadium on the 22nd.
As a result, Seongnam will have a winless streak (4 draws and 8 losses) for 12 games in three months since its victory over Anyang (3-1) on June 15. He couldn't even get out of the bottom. Suwon, on the other hand, managed to escape from winless games (one draw and two losses) for three consecutive games.
It was a defeat through. The cheering match at Tancheon Stadium was an overwhelming victory for away Suwon fans. Suwon fans, who filled 2,100 away cheering seats, took the lead in the cheering battle even before the start of the game against Seongnam supporters, who filled more than 400 seats. The atmosphere even made me feel like it was Suwon's home game.
However, the atmosphere of the ground was different. Seongnam's players, who were at the bottom, persisted despite being intimidated by Suwon's cheering momentum. The motivation to present victory to Jeon Kyung-joon, who took over as the new head coach during the last A-match break, was also a great 'Buttil Power' for the players.
Suwon, which has relatively strong power, took the lead from the beginning of the game and pushed Seongnam. Seongnam held out with a tactic to aim for a count punch instead of solidifying its defense first. Seongnam's chances of winning were unlikely to increase because Seongnam had not created a decisive attack opportunity for a while.
Still, it was Seongnam goalkeeper Choi Pil-soo who gave hope. Choi Pil-soo saved a team that almost fell into the abyss early on. Seongnam faced a major crisis in the 6th minute of the first half. Jung Won-jin made a handball foul in the process of tackling Suwon foreign player Peter to block his breakthrough in the penalty box. A minute later, goaltender Mulic stepped up as a kicker, but Choi Pil-soo saw the direction of the kick and made a super save.
In the 15th minute, Choi Pil-soo also blocked Paulino's side shot and blocked the opponent's shot from the second ball, and did not spare himself from Mulic's mid-range shot in the 21st minute. Seongnam, which had been holding out thanks to Choi Pil-soo, properly hit 'one shot' for 30 minutes. Shin Jae-won calmly shook the net after catching Jung Seung-yong's header pass with an exquisite 'line breaking' in a free-kick mix situation. So much for Seongnam's joy.
If Seongnam had a thrilling 'one shot', Suwon had a tough 'two shot' with persistence. In the 24th minute of the second half, when he was constantly on the offensive, defender Han Ho-gang, who participated in the set-piece attack, finished Paulino's cross with a header.
In the 46th minute of the second half, when extra time was given, Lee Ki-je, the master of kick, hit the decisive shot with a surprise mid-range shot at the 25m point. The roar of the away cheering section reached its peak.
