Why are you strong against E-Land coach Kim Do-kyun's smile against Suwon? I really don't know



"Why are you strong against Suwon?" I really don't know."

That was the smile of Seoul E-Land coach Kim Do-kyun. The first team in charge of Suwon Samsung was also head coach Kim Do-kyun. Seoul E-Land won 4-2 against Suwon at Mokdong Stadium on the 9th with consecutive goals by Park Chang-hwan, Lee Tal-ro, Pedrillo and E-Dale in the third round of the 「Hana Bank K League 2 2025」. E-Land, which has been undefeated in three games since the opening, has jumped from multiple points to leading the Jeonnam Dragons with seven points.

E-Land, which won all three games against Suwon last season, also caught Suwon in its first showdown this year. Coach Kim's strength in the match against Suwon continued. Coach Kim met Suwon 16 times, including when he took the helm of Suwon FC, and continued his overwhelming record with 12 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses.




Coach Kim, who went to the press conference after the game, said "On good weather, a lot of E-Land fans and Suwon fans came to the stadium. I think I played a good game thanks to that. As expected, the game was on the defensive in the first half, but he scored quickly. A scene in which he also scored a second goal came out, leading the game to his advantage. The strikers played a good role. He also showed good performance with his first breakaway, and Park Chang-hwan also seems to be his first professional goal, so I want to congratulate him. Overall, the game was played according to plan. Unfortunately in the second half, the team lost points at the last minute and the role of the replacement players was insufficient. I think it will be reborn as a stronger team only if that goes well. I want to make them aware of that."

As for the reason why they are strong against Suwon, "I really don't know. We're not good enough in terms of squads and skills. It's not that the difference can't be exceeded. We are not good enough, but it is happening with results. First, the players' motivation and preparation posture were good, Suwon improved in squads this season before the game, and had a better record than last season, but we also said we were better than last year, and we wanted to do it with confidence, but we did well in everything" he said.

Then "Let's leave our confidence and prepare the same." The part I told the players was 39 games, and last year, when we mentioned the match against Jeonbuk in the promotion and playoff, he said it should be like that. I said let's do it like a final every game, but it's hard for everyone to play like that. Since there are very few games during the week before the game, I think you have to play a lot and play in a tournament-like manner because it's a one-week term."




All the foreigners burst out on this day. Coach Kim said "I've talked about it since the first game, but foreigners are doing well. be satisfied with one's supervision. At the toes of foreign players in each game, their position is attack, and they have been doing well in the roles of strikers so far. The breakaway also showed good performance for the first game, and I think we should consider the coexistence of the breakaway road and Eidale. Pedringyo and Eulere are faithfully fulfilling their role."

E-Land rose to the lead, albeit early on. Manager Kim said "I thought the early points were important. There are many things that have changed since last season. Like the type of attack deployment and the scene of pressing, I personally think it's much better. Other teams have also improved, so they need to accumulate early points. It's important to get points while managing in the middle. It is commendable to build points without losing."

E-Land will face another favorite, Incheon, in the next game. Director Kim said "It's the same. Incheon is also one of 39 games, and a good team. We may be lacking, but there is no way we can't go beyond it. We should prepare well for the Incheon game and Suwon or Incheon should play a game that brings points even if we are not good enough. We need to focus on that."




Eland has continued to play much more detail since taking over as Jungkyu Lee coach. This coach is a leader who is good at digital analysis. Coach Kim said, `E-Land is also a power analyst, and coach Jungkyu Lee is as good as an analyst. There is a lot of feedback to the players. Compared to last season, it gives feedback to the extent that the players are bothered. I think it helps as a team. I think it will also help players develop their personal skills by analyzing individual videos. I think it will play a lot of roles in the team's development."
