Jeonbuk and E-Land will play the second round of the playoff of the 'Hana Bank K League 2024' at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 8th. Jeonbuk won 2-1 in the first round at E-Land Home Seoul Mokdong Stadium on the 1st. Jeonbuk, which tries to avoid its first relegation, and E-Land, which tries to win its first promotion, will be determined in the second round.
The advantage is Jeonbuk. Jeonbuk had an 83.3 percent chance of winning the first game. Only two times in the history of 12 elevation POs have lost the first round and succeeded in turning it over. Jeonbuk, which receives absolute support from fans at home, confirms its stay just by drawing. The number of pre-sale tickets has already exceeded 20,000. There were moments when I was pushed by the opponent, but the weight difference was clear. Jeonbuk's best 11, consisting of the best players in the K-League, was clearly superior to E-Land, which is mainly young players. In particular, Thiago's first goal scene, which led to Kwon Chang-hoon and Moon Sun-min in the 37th minute of the first half, was a scene showing Jeonbuk's class.
Most of all, it changed the atmosphere. If he had not won the first game, the subdued atmosphere could have gone down further. Considering that PO is a battle of momentum, the result of the first round for Jeonbuk was a match that determined the entire PO. The pressure of 'win to win' wrapped up the entire team, but Jeon Jin-woo's winning goal in the 38th minute of the second half scored a valuable victory. The burden of the second game will be reduced and the game will be played more comfortably.
However, the burden remains. Director Kim Doo-hyun was even hospitalized due to extreme stress. There are many experienced players in Jeonbuk, but the competition for victory and the fight for staying are 180 degrees different.
Jeonbuk will play as a 4-4-2 model. Thiago and Kim Jin-kyu will be at the forefront. Jeon Byeong-gwan and Song Min-gyu stand on the left and right, and Park Jin-seop and Lee Young-jae sit in the midfield. Kim Tae-hyun, Yeon Je-woon, Kim Ha-joon, and Kim Tae-hwan form a four-back. Goalkeeper Kim Jun-hong wears gloves.
Kim Jung-hoon, Ahn Hyun-beom, Hong Jung-ho, Korea Young, Jeon Jin-woo, Moon Sun-min, and Lee Seung-woo will be on the bench.
E-Land, who dreams of turning the tables, needs to win by two goals. Although it has fallen to the promotion PO, it is not an easy mission against Jeonbuk, which has the best K-League history. On the contrary, however, the atmosphere seems to be that it went well. The direction to go became clear. E-Land plans to shake Jeonbuk from the beginning with its offensive soccer. If only the first goal is scored in the early hours, it is judged that there is a chance of winning.
It's a reasonable calculation. E-Land gained confidence in the first game that 'It's worth a try. Osmar scored an equalizer in the third minute of the second half, and he continued to push his opponent. If the finish had gone well, I could have caught a big fish. Coach Kim Do-kyun said after the game, `The performance was not bad. He has adapted well to Jeonbuk." Players such as Osmar and Seo Jae-min also said, `I think I can do better in the second game.'
Above all, head coach Kim Do-kyun has experience of flipping in the elevation PO. Coach Kim, who led Suwon FC to the promotion PO last year, lost the first game, but wrote the drama of the second game. At that time, the score in the first round was also 1-2.
However, it could collapse with a counterattack if it proceeds with an attack. E-Land was defensively run in the first half, but collapsed due to the opponent's high-quality play. Manager Kim emphasizes challenging play, but it is inevitably difficult to operate Lee's tactics. It's because of just one goal kick.
E-Land face off 4-3-3. Bruno Silva and Montagno stand on the left and right with Kim Shin-jin as the axis. Seo Jae-min and Park Chang-hwan and Osmar will set up in the Jungwon. Park Min-seo, Kim Oh-gyu, Kim Min-gyu, and Kwang-hoon form a four-back. Moon Jung-in protects the goal. Yoon Sang-boo, Lee In-jae, Baek Ji-woong, Byeon Chang-jun, Cho Young-kwang, Lee Joon-seok, and Jung Jae-min will be.
