Jeonbuk took the lead with Moon Sun-min's first goal in the second Group H match of the 2024-2025 AFC Champions League 2 held at Jeonju World Cup Stadium at 5 p.m. on the 3rd, and defeated Muangtong, who recovered one goal with Lee Young-jae's left-footed mid-range shot, Moon Sun-min's wedge goal, and Jin Tae-ho's wedge goal at the end of the second half.
As a result, Jeonbuk defeated DH Cebu FC (Philippines) 6-0 in the first round of the group stage and defeated Muangtong in the second round, increasing its chances of advancing to the tournament round. ACL 2 will be organized into eight groups of four teams and will play six games each in a home-and-away manner. After that, the top two teams in each group will advance to the round of 16 tournaments.
Jeonbuk came out with a rotation lineup centered on Team B in the game as in the first game. Since he is currently fighting to escape the relegation zone in K League 1, he could not afford to put in the main players. Jeonbuk, currently ranked 19th in the K League (37 points), is set to face Daegu FC (35 points), ranked 10th in the league, in the 33rd round, three days later on the 6th. If you lose, you will fall to 10th place, so you have no choice but to put all your energy into this game.
Therefore, Jeonbuk coach Kim Doo-hyun came out with a lineup centered on Team B except for Moon Sun-min and Thiago in the game against Muangtong. He put forward Moon Seon-min and Kim Chang-hoon of Thiago as a three-top. The second line was then placed as Yoo Je-ho and Jin Tae-ho and Lee Soo-bin. Park Chang-woo, Koo Ja-yong, Kim Tae-hwan, and Kim Ha-joon will play the four-back game. The goal was scored by Kim Jung-hoon, the keeper. Kwon Chang-hoon, Park Si-hwa, Han Seok-jin, Seo Jeong-hyuk, Hwang Jae-yoon, Jin Si-woo, Park Chae-joon, eldest son Woong, Choi Chul-soon, Jung Woo-jae, Park Jae-yong, and Lee Young-jae were on the waiting list.
Against this, for Muangtong, Pomet Azvirai and Emilovac came out as two-top players. Sourawit Pantong, Purachet Totsanit and Peach Outra are second-line midfielders. Jacapan Frysuwan, Tristan Doe, John Patrick-Strauss, Ali Sissoko and Songout Kreikruan were placed on the defensive line. Kittipong Putau-Chuik Keeper was in charge of the goal.
Immediately after kick-off, Jeonbuk almost collapsed Muangtong's rear line. In two minutes, a long pass was passed to the front-line Moon Seon-min in the central camp. Moon Sun-min received it in the box, but the trapping was long and he couldn't catch a shot chance.
Since then, Muangtong has threatened Jeonbuk's goal. In the 10th minute of the first half, John Patrick fired a header shot at a cross from the right. In the 29th minute of the first half, John Patrick's shot from inside the Jeonbuk penalty area hit the post and flowed. There was good luck in Jeonbuk. Jeonbuk has since played defensive games without creating any chances. In the end, the first half ended 0-0.
At the beginning of the second half, Jeonbuk put in Park Jae-yong and Lee Young-jae without Thiago and Yoo Je-ho. At the same time, the aggressive flow was lifted.
In the end, the first goal was scored in five minutes. Kim Tae-hwan, who received Park Jae-yong's return pass from the right side of the Muangtong goal area, hit the penalty area and crossed. Moon Seon-min jumped from the center and pushed it into a non-stop shot.
After the first goal, Jeonbuk's momentum burned fiercely. Five minutes later, an extra goal was scored. In the 10th minute of the second half, Lee Young-jae took over the pass from the front of the box and drilled through the left corner of the goal with a strong left-footed shot. It wasn't the end here. Four minutes later, Moon Sun-min again lightly pushed a cross following Kim Tae-hwan's breakthrough to score his second goal to make it 3-0. He scored three goals in a row 14 minutes after the start of the second half.
Jeonbuk, which has completely won the game, briefly let its guard down. In the 21st minute of the second half, Muangtong Sorawit allowed a comeback goal. However, it was not possible to change the course of the game. Jeonbuk played without Moon Seon-min. Then, there was a lot of luck again. In the 39th minute of the second half, Jin Tae-ho took over the rear pass and dribbled alone from the center and scored his fourth goal. It was a goal to celebrate the victory.
