Jeonbuk tied Gwangju 2-2 in the second round of the 2025 K League 1 at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 23rd. He lost points in the 13th minute of the first half and the 17th minute of the second half, but was able to finish the match tied thanks to Andrea Compagno's multi-goal. Jeonbuk, which came from behind to win 2-1 in the league's opening match against Gimcheon Sangmu, continued its unbeaten trend by adding a draw.
Coach Foyet said in a post-match press conference "It was also a difficult game. It seems that it is not easy to continue the winning streak after allowing the opponent the lead twice. However, the players' individuality and desire to win were satisfactory enough." There are also situations in which the other party responded well and it is difficult for us to control. But I don't see it as a big problem. Even after giving up the first goal against Gimcheon, he scored two goals to win. Today, in the last 20 minutes, we led the attack and showed enough to win." He emphasizes to the players that a strong team that is always ready can win. I think the players are showing enough of that. "We've won three games and drawn one in four games so far today. Both the players and fans could be seen breaking down in today's draw. I think this is Jeonbuk's winning mentality that has changed this season."
Regarding the conditions of Compagno and Jeon Jin-woo, who were injured in the second half of the day, Coach Foye said, `Compagno is in a state of hemostasis due to a tear under his eyebrows. Jeon Jin-woo's injury looks serious. It doesn't look like it's in good shape."
