Anyang won 1-0 with Mota's dramatic header goal in the 46th minute of the second half in the first round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' against Ulsan at Munsu Football Stadium in Ulsan on the 16th.
Anyang coach Yoo Byung-hoon, who scored three points in the first game, expected it to be difficult. It was hard in real life, too. He stressed that he can only win if he holds out. I'm glad that the players persevered until the end and took the victory."
Anyang took the lead for a while at the beginning of the game, but Ulsan's wave of attacks continued. At the end of the second half, the Brazilian trio dominated the trend. Yago, who received Mateus' pass, crossed, and Mota shook the net with a header. It was a period.
Director Yoo said "I was honestly nervous, too. If you lost a point in the first half, it would have been a difficult game. Although it was pushed back, it was an opportunity to gain confidence by allowing no runs in the first half. "I think I gained confidence because I held out, and I felt that the players could do enough, so I relaxed. "Defence is important to win. You can give the opponent a chance, but you blocked it until the end or blocked it because you covered it well. I think we should continue to show the stickiness that we didn't lose in difficult situations," he stressed.
About K League 1 "I don't know yet. We've played one game now. Today, I think the players won with their mental strength and will. Only 60-70% of what we need to show is yet to come out. It's just the beginning. I will adapt more and analyze the opponent well and continue to aim for victory."
Anyang's next opponent is FC Seoul on the 22nd. It is drawing a previous parallel line with the return to ointment. Coach Yoo said "The victory gave the players confidence. However, we should be wary that confidence will not turn into complacency. It's more important to restore the players' bodies and minds and do well in the next game than to do what we're going to do now."
And "Anyang's identity must not change. First win in the first division. I think it's more meaningful because it was the first part that fans and players wanted. Based on this, Anyang is not a team seeking to win now, but it is important to be more competitive and make it a team that performs better within two to three years."
