But Seoul was a valuable point. Ulsan fell into a winless swamp (two draws and two losses) for four consecutive games at home, failing to turn the tables again. Ulsan tied Seoul without scoring in the seventh round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' held at Munsu Football Stadium on the 5th.
Ulsan scored 11 points (3 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses) and Seoul scored 12 points (3 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss). Seoul has been undefeated (3 wins and 3 draws) in six consecutive games. However, the jinx was valid. Ulsan has not lost in 23 consecutive games (15 wins and 8 draws) since losing 0-3 to Seoul on October 28, 2017.
Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon brought up the 4-2-3-1 system. Lee Chung-yong, Lee Jin-hyun and Um Won-sang were located at the second line, with Heo Yul at the one-top. Lee Hee-kyunkwan Ko Seung-beom served as a defensive midfielder and a bridge between offense and defense. Park Min-seo, Kim Young-kwon, Choi Seok-hyun, and Kang Sang-woo lined up at the four-back, and Cho Hyun-woo defended the goal.
Seoul coach Kim Ki-dong also countered with a 4-2-3-1 card. Banks was on the one-top, right under Willian Lingard Jung Seung-won. Hwang Do-yoon and Lee Seung-mo stood in the central midfield. Kim Jin-soo, Kim Joo-sung, was in charge of Yazan Choi Juni four-back, and Kang Hyun-moo wore the goalkeeper's gloves.

In the 26th minute of the first half, Lee Jin-hyun connected with a right-footed shot after a bold dribble breakthrough, but it went off the post. In the 40th minute of the first half, Heo Yul aimed for a goal with a left-footed turning shot, but the ball crossed the crossbar and cut through the air.
Seoul raced hard at the end of the first half. Lingard shot his right foot in the 45th minute of the first half and Willian shot his right foot one after another two minutes, but he fell 2% short of opening the goal.
There was a change at half-time. Ulsan excluded three Lee Seung-mo and Willian, including Lee Chung-yong, and Lucas and Moon Sun-min and Ki Sung-yueng were dispatched.
As the battle continued, the heat rose at the beginning of the second half. Seoul opened with Lucas' right footed shot. In Ulsan, Ko Seung-beom's right foot shot in the fifth minute of the second half was saved by Kang Hyun-moo. Heo Yul responded with a header from the subsequent corner kick, but it was out of the goal.

In the 36th minute of the second half, Eric's left foot shot went up. Seoul chose Kang Sung-jin as its last replacement card in the 36th minute of the second half.
In the 37th minute of the second half, Ulsan continued to Eric's right foot shot in a mixed situation following Lacaba's cross, but it did not lead to a goal. Ulsan put out a Jang Si-young card instead of Um Won-sang in the 44th minute of the second half. However, the goal was not opened in the end.
