It's Ulsan HD in crisis.

Ulsan, which is aiming for its fourth consecutive K League 1 win, has fallen into a swamp of two consecutive losses. Ulsan lost 2-3 in the early 18th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' against Daejeon Hana Citizen at Munsu Football Stadium on the 1st. The match was scheduled to be held on June 15 in accordance with Ulsan's participation in the FIFA Club World Cup.

Daejeon took a 2-0 lead early in the first half, but Ulsan brought the game back to square one in extra time in the first half. However, Joo Min-kyu, who wore an Ulsan uniform until last year, played as a substitute in the second half and inserted a dagger.




Ulsan lost 0-1 to the Pohang Steelers in the last round, followed by a two-game losing streak. It remained in fourth place (3 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses) with 10 points, but it could fall further.

Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon apologized for disappointing the fans at home unlike Ulsan. The players worked hard and did a good job. He followed well to 2-2 even in difficult situations. There is something to be desired in the situation of losing points. I'll revise it well."

The replacement of the signature tube's injury was also painful. He was in pain when he touched the ball. I'll have to check more, but fortunately, I don't think it's a big injury.'




As for the booing of fans "Typical. It's something you have to win all the time. I let you down, but you have to make a turnaround quickly. I will not disappoint you in the future."

Park Min-seo scored the first goal, and Lee Hee-kyun scored one goal and one assist. Coach Kim said, `We lost the game as a team, but we have a positive side. But it's hard to tell you that part today. The difficulty came because I couldn't score on the first chance. There are parts that need to be corrected and fixed."
