Joo Min-kyu (Ulsan HD) couldn't laugh even after scoring a goal. Promised joy for the next season.
Ulsan HD, led by head coach Kim Pan-gon, lost 1-3 in the final of the '2024 Hana Bank Korea Cup" against the Pohang Steelers at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 30th. Ulsan has been aiming to reach the top in seven years since 2017. However, he finished second again following 1998, 2018, and 2020.
After the game, Joo Min-kyu said, `I think we played as well as we prepared in the first half. At the end of the second half, we couldn't bring the results we wanted. I think it's a very disappointing match."
"I don't think it went well in the game we lost, it went wrong, but it didn't go well. So I lost. I think I need to supplement it next year and play the rest of the game well," he added.
Joo Min-kyu, who started the day, exploded the first goal in the 37th minute of the first half. With the game tight at 0-0, he received Lee Chung-yong's pass and cut the opponent's net. That was the end of the jubilation. Ulsan bowed its head, allowing Pohang Jung Jae-hee, Kim In-sung, and Kang Hyun-je to score one after another.
Ulsan aimed for a 'double' following the K-League and the Korea Cup this season. However, he couldn't overcome the last crisis and bowed his head.
After the game, Joo Min-gyu said, `I feel very bitter. There is still one game left. Many fans cheered for the game in Seoul in the cold weather. I'm sorry I couldn't live up to it, I couldn't lift the trophy. There is another season next year. I will prepare well and prepare well so that I can 'double' next year."
Ulsan will play Shanghai Shenhua in the sixth round of the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) match in the 2024-2025 season on December 4. Ulsan has lost all five games in the ACLE stage this season. I dream of winning the last game of this season.
