It was a pity for Gimpo FC coach Ko Jung-woon. Gimpo and Seoul E-Land will play the 12th round of 'Hana Bank K League 2 2025' at Gimpo Salter Football Stadium on the 18th. Gimpo is in ninth place with 12 points and E-Land is in fourth place with 21 points.
Both teams are in good flow. Gimpo escaped three consecutive losses by beating Hwaseong FC 1-0 in the 11th round, followed by a 2-1 victory over the Pohang Steelers in the Korea Cup during the week. Kimpo continued to "Giant Killing" to catch the K-League 1 team at the Korea Cup every season.
In the victory that could be on the rise, there was something to be desired. Jegal Jae-min was sent off when he collided with Pohang defender Eo Jung-won.
Asked about the incident at a post-match press conference, Pohang coach Park Tae-ha said, `You shouldn't do that. The winning team...," he began. "I heard the player spit on Eo Jung-won. for no reason. I don't know who the player is, but I think it's an act that shouldn't be done. The team (Kimpo) will take good action, but even if they respect each other and pat each other on the shoulder and encourage the losing team players, they will sell their hats.... I think it has to be dealt with strictly."
Coach Ko, whom I met before the game, said "I didn't know at first either. If true at the press conference, I thought it was right for us to discipline ourselves. But I listened to it later and checked the video. There was no such thing at all. On Wednesday, a subcommittee on judgment was held, and he asked to go and explain himself. I have an image of a player, but I can't be framed, so I need to protect it at the club level as well."
Then "Since the public opinion was not good, of course, Jaemin had a hard time." I also talked to director Park Tae-ha and Eo Jung-won on the phone to find out as much as possible. Spitting on the face is something you really shouldn't do and it's hard to do easily. Everyone said there was no such thing, so it would end well.'
Gimpo has only changed two digits compared to the last match against Pohang. It operated the best without a rotation. Cho Sung-joon and Plana form a two-top. Yoon Jae-woon and Kim Ji-hoon stand on the left and right, and Lee Chan-hyung, Choi Jae-hoon and Designuma are in the center. Park Kyung-rok, Chapman, and Ahn Chang-min make up the three-back. Son Jeong-hyun protects the goal.
Lewis, Jegal Jae-min, and Kim Gyeol are on standby as Joker.
Coach Ko said, `When I looked at the Pohang war data, I got a pretty good record physically. I finally played Gimpo soccer. Now in the best 11, even foreigners will never give you a chance if you don't melt in. It doesn't end in a game or two, but the team will be better if it stays."
Finally, he said, `If you don't give up first, it's worth the game. As E-Land has weaknesses in the back space, I wonder if there will be risks over time."
