It was the match for Pohang Steelers coach Park Tae-ha. Pohang will play the fifth round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025" against Jeonbuk Hyundai at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 16th. Jeonbuk is currently ranked 10th with 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses (4 points), and Pohang is at the bottom with 1 draw and 2 losses (1 point). Pohang played one less game due to Gwangju FC's Asian Champions League elite schedule.
It's two teams that are shaking. Jeonbuk suffered a shocking 2-3 come-from-behind defeat in the second round of the Asian Champions League quarterfinals against Sydney last time. It fell into a quagmire of four consecutive losses until the first game at home and the second consecutive league game. They didn't win a single game in March. He has worked hard all winter to appoint Gus Foyet, but he still cannot escape from the quagmire that went down to the elevation playoffs last season.
Pohang has not won a game this season. It has one draw and four losses, including elite players in the Asian Champions League. It's all defeat in February. After a shocking four-game losing streak, it was a good harvest to break the losing streak with a 0-0 draw against Daegu FC.
Pohang also faced off 4-3-3. Cho Jae-hoon, Lee Ho-jae, and Kim In-sung stood at the front line. Han Chan-hee, Kim Jong-woo and Auberdan were in the midfield. Lee Tae-seok, Jeon Min-kwang, Aspro, and Shin Kwang-hoon made the four-back. Hwang In-jae defended the goal. Eo Jung-won, Kim Dong-jin, and Jorge started from the bench.
Pohang took a two-week break. Director Park said "It was a lovely time. It was a meaningful time to recover the physical part and the psychological part.' "It was difficult because there were more runs than the contents of the game. There was a part we trained in the winter, and strangely, the players also felt a lot of loss because they scored a goal, but they said, "Let's get out of this part quickly."
Unfortunately, Juningyo, Baek Sung-dong and Lee Dong-hee were injured at the end of the training. Coach Park said "There's a muscle problem. I can't help it. Rather than paying attention to this, I think it will be a good opportunity for players who have trained hard.'
Coach Park finally said, `We know because we've experienced it, but there's something we can't overcome physically and psychologically. I'm thinking of digging into this part today. We don't know if it's good or bad for us, but I think it will affect the response as the weather gets colder. In the first half, it will be a little tight, and in the second half, I intend to be aggressive with a physical advantage.'
