Daejeon Hana Citizen, which changed the atmosphere to victory during the week, will take the second-place Gimcheon Sangmu and solidify its lead.

Daejeon Hana will face Gimcheon Sangmu at 4:30 p.m. on the 19th at Gimcheon Stadium in the 9th round of the 「Hana Bank K League 1 2025」. Daejeon ranks first with 17 points (5 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses).

Daejeon briefly slowed down after its best February and March. After beating Ulsan HD 3-2, it lost 0-2 to Jeonbuk Hyundai and drew 2-2 with FC Seoul. In the match against Seoul, Gutech led 2-0 with a multi-goal lead and allowed two runs to draw. He was still in the lead, but with many runs, he needed an opportunity to turn the tables.




The trend was changed in the third round of the "2025 Hana Bank Korea Cup" held during the week. He made a winning move by starting a large number of key players, not rotation. Gutech, Kim In-kyun, Lee Joon-kyu, Kim Hyun-wook, Lim Deok-geun, Kim Moon-hwan, Park Jin-sung, Kim Min-woo, Im Jong-eun, Kim Hyun-woo and Lee Chang-geun started. In particular, it was notable that Kim Moon-hwan, who failed to play this season due to injury, returned.

The result was a 2-1 victory. In a 1-1 situation, Yoon Do-young and Shin Sang-eun put their backs into the attack, and when Lim Deok-geun scored a theater goal, Daejeon won 2-1. Ahead of the Gimcheon match, the main players were able to maintain their performance and boost the atmosphere.

Gimcheon is doing well this season following last season. He is in second place with four wins, two draws and two losses. The offense with Lee Dong-kyung, Kim Seung-seop and Yoo Kang-hyun is destructive and has a good sense of rear stability. However, Gimcheon, which was doing well, lost 2-3 to Suwon FC, which had been winless in the last game, dampening the flow.




Kim Hyun-wook is the key player in the No. 1 match against the No. 2 Gimcheon. `Little Giant' Kim Hyun-wook is playing various roles this season. He goes to the front line with Joo Min-gyu or Gutech, and he goes down to the midfield and is involved in the rear build-up. He falls into the side and plays the role of winger. Kim Hyun-wook, who has high tactical utilization, has one goal and two assists in eight games. He was also listed in Round Best Eleven twice.

Kim Hyun-wook's role is important to break through Gimcheon's defense, where Kim Bong-soo and Park Seung-wook hold out. The more detailed Kim Hyun-wook is involved in the attack, the more destructive the offense will be. Watching Kim Hyun-wook's performance in the Gimcheon match is another point to watch.
