Suwon FC coach Kim Eun-joong expressed his deep regret after drawing 1-1 against Ulsan HD.
Coach Kim Eun-joong's Suwon led 1-0 at home against Ulsan in the fifth round of the K League 1 on the 16th with Luan's first goal in the 12th minute of the first half with Andersson's help. He dominated the first half of the game against Ulsan, which recorded three consecutive wins and three consecutive clean sheets, raising expectations for his first win of the half. Early in the second half, Suwon replacement member Lee Hee-kyun scored an equalizer, but it was erased after VAR, and soon after, Lee Hyun-yong's handball foul gave up a penalty kick, but he maintained the lead with Ahn Jun-su's super save. However, Erik, who was substituted in the 20th minute of the second half, shook the net in the 7th minute to return the game to square one, and Suwon FC's first win was postponed after the A-match break.
At the post-match press conference, head coach Kim Eun-joong said "I'm sorry that I did more than 100% as prepared, but the results didn't follow."

Regarding not being able to win for the first time in five games, coach Kim said, `The players work hard and do as well as they prepared, but it could be a last-minute luck. Today, I respect the referee, but there were some parts that were not appropriate for the judgment, and we played without losing as our players overcame them well", he commented. "I told him not to feel pressured about that, and if he wins, he can go to a higher place, so I'm doing it without feeling pressured."The mood was conveyed.
Rather, coach Kim gave meaning to drawing a tight game against strong teams such as Seoul and Ulsan after two consecutive losses against Daegu and Daejeon. "Before the FC Seoul match, he would have thought of losing four games against Ulsan outside as he lost two consecutive games." "He showed no inferiority in the content of the game." I hope our players have positive confidence in this area." In the first half of the Ulsan match, coach Kim said, `We did 100% as prepared, and the opponent couldn't cope and we were overwhelmed. It's a shame that he didn't score an additional goal." "Ulsan is a strong team that scores at any time. If you want to win against a strong team, you have to be sharper at the chance," he said emphatically. "It's a pity that the results didn't come out as much as our players tried." This can also be anxiety, but if you win, you can accelerate and win more games. I hope you don't lose your confidence." Below is the full text of Suwon FC coach Kim Eun-joong's press conference.

-a general review of the game
▶Thank you for coming to see us in the cold weather. I'm sorry that I did more than 100% well as I prepared, but the results didn't follow. Our team scored the first goal and allowed an equalizer, but we finished well by holding out well without allowing a turnaround. I will prepare well during the break and continue to improve.
-Still, Andersson dependence was high.
▶ Players other than Andersson, Ji Dong-won, and Luan are also getting better. The attack development that was prepared came out. As it continues to develop, it is expected that the team will be empowered if it joins with Ofkir and Sabak.
-In the absence of his first win, he was given a break.
-The reason why I didn't win for the first time while looking at 5 games
▶In fact, rather than a clear reason, the players work hard and do well as they prepare, but it may be luck at the end. Today, I respect the referee, but there were parts that were not appropriate for the judgment, and we played without losing as our players overcame them well. I told him not to feel pressured in that part, and if he wins, he can go to a higher place, so I do it without feeling pressured.
-There is a side that has overcome well in matches against strong teams such as Seoul and Ulsan.
▶ As you said, he would have thought of losing two games in a row before the match against FC Seoul, and even four games in a row against Ulsan. Of course you would have thought you were going to lose. He showed that he is not behind in the content of the game. We played a game. I hope you have positive confidence in this area. A two-week break is important to us.
-What to supplement during the break
▶It's about scoring points, but not all games have multiple points. You have to take advantage of a small opportunity. Again today, he scored the first goal and failed to score in two perfect chances. I think we should develop this part.
-Lee Ji-sol's defense and Ahn Jun-su's defense
▶Jisol continues to develop and elevate his senses. It fills up the sense of stability in defense. Ahn Junsu has been good to him since last year. Since he is growing one step further this year, I think he will be able to take the results if he makes up for the score.
-Today's first half was the best of Suwon's offensive developments this season.
▶In the first half, we actually did 100% as we prepared against Ulsan, and the opponent couldn't cope and we were overwhelmed. It's a shame that the extra points didn't come out. Ulsan is a strong team that scores at any time. If I try to win against the strong team, I think I should be sharper at the chance.
-If it had beaten Ulsan today, Suwon would have been disappointed to record its first victory at home against Ulsan.
I didn't know if it was ▶. However, it is a pity that the results did not come out as much as our players tried. This can also be anxiety, but I hope the players don't think about it. If you win, you can accelerate and win more games. I hope you don't lose your confidence.
