K League 2 Chungnam Asan FC reached the playoffs for the first time since its foundation. If he plays two games well, he will be able to play in the glorious K League 1 from next year. The last opponent to overcome is Daegu FC, ranked 11th in the K League 1. We've never met each other. However, South Chungcheong Asan coach Kim Hyun-seok showed confidence in his victory, saying, `An opponent expected in a hypothetical scenario.'
Chungcheongnam-do Asan will play the first game against Daegu at Cheonan Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 28th. He then moved to Daegu on the 1st and played the second game. The results of the first and second games will determine the joys and sorrows of staying and promotion.
Chungnam Asan started the 4-1-4-1 lineup. It is the preferred lineup of head coach Kim Hyun-seok, who enjoys pattern play. Park Dae-hoon is one-top at the front line. After that, Kang Min-kyu and Juningyo spread their wings, and Kim Seung-ho and Park Se-jik were placed in the center.
Hwang Ki-wook comes out on the third line. Four backs are Kim Joo-sung, Lee Eun-beom, Choi Hee-won, and Kang Joo-hyuk. The goal was scored by keeper Shin Song-hoon.
The weather deteriorated ahead of the game. Heavy snow poured down the country from two days ago. On this day, the rain and snow continued. Head coach Kim Hyun-seok was slightly worried, saying, `The weather is bad ahead of the big game.' But I wasn't too worried about the game itself. He added "It's according to the virtual scenario. Originally, I thought it would be better to meet Daegu than Jeonbuk, so I prepared there. Thanks to this, I think the players will cope well."
Coach Kim then said, `Our weaknesses are in the right to provide for now. That's why I think my opponent also uses Edgar from the beginning, but I've prepared enough for it. I'm going to do a lot of line control to stop Edgar. It also marks the sejingya coming in from behind. He said his injury did not fully recover, but he trained in a double-marking manner on the low block side to fundamentally block the ball entering Cesinha. There are risks, but they will work well. If you score one goal, you can score two goals."
This confidence comes from the trust in the players. Coach Kim said, `The opponent is afraid of Juninho, but in fact, Denilson and Kang Min-kyu will be more dangerous. In particular, Kang Min-kyu prescribed extreme drugs by excluding him from training to boost his fighting spirit in his heart. Then, I was so anxious that I came over several times and asked for a chance. That's how I went out, so I'll do my best. I believe he will do a good job."
Finally, director Kim said "We use an inverted full-back in an unusual way. Fullbacks go into the top line and the final third without hesitation, and if Daegu doesn't control this, it's bound to struggle. There are not many teams like us that use side space and use an inverted fullback that has the advantage of numbers. You'll be confused if you bump into it. I prepared by emphasizing this aspect. I also asked the players to complete the play until the end like an underwater match."
