Suwon FC manager Kim Eun-joong chose a big change ahead of the Pohang Steelers' away match in the 33rd round of Hana Bank's K League 1 regular league at 3 p.m. on the 6th.
It put striker Jung Seung-bae, born in 2003, at the forefront and gave center back Lee Hyun-yong, born in 2003, a chance to make his league debut. Of the 11 players, four were born in the 2000s.
Director Kim said, `Lee Hyun-yong has been training together steadily. I worked hard in preparing, and Jackson was very tired, so I used him because I thought he was good in terms of confidence and condition", he explained.
Regarding the choice of many changes in the league's final match, head coach Kim explained, `It's something I talk about carefully in every interview, but we've come this far by squeezing and squeezing because our players are showing all their capabilities now, so there's nothing else we can do other than how to recover our condition well and do something new within our given resources, so we chose to make it as good as possible with the players without injuries.'
"We had no choice but to consist of players who were as fresh and ready as possible and showed desperation. I also think that a good opportunity for our players is an opportunity, and I think the new players will do well depending on which player takes the opportunity", he expressed his faith..
Coach Kim responded to the reporters who mentioned the absence of 'front striker' to the 0-1 defeat due to difficulties in finishing the match against Seoul. "Our middle riders have to score again today. All players do a lot of scoring and shooting training every time they train. The results of the game did not follow because the players could not bring the score, but as much as the players always prepared, I appreciate the part that they do in the stadium as much as possible." "There's a loss in terms of game changers, but it's inevitable. That's why I'm grateful to the players who do everything they can on the field despite the difficulties."
Defender captain Lee Yong-yong, who was injured on the day, was also listed on the away list. Coach Kim said, `It's not perfect yet, but the captain's vacancy was large, and he is a much needed player when the team is struggling. And since our leader can play different roles as captain in the team, we brought Lee Yong again despite the away game", he explained.
Pohang has recently won three consecutive home games including the Asian Champions League. However, ahead of the match against Pohang, which has never lost with one win and one draw this season, head coach Kim said, `Pohang is so well organized and the balance of offense and defense is almost the top team in the K League 1 team, so there are actually many more difficult parts for us to cope with and attack. "Our players have recognized and followed that well, so there was no loss in the previous two games, but it's an away game, and we expect a more difficult game today, but if our players follow us well as they prepared for a week, wouldn't it be possible to bring good results?" he said.
