Pohang came from behind to win 3-1 in the 16th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' against Daejeon Hana Citizen at Daejeon World Cup Stadium on the 27th with Giorgi's 1 goal-1 help-1 start and strong performance. Pohang, which has won two consecutive games, jumped to fourth place with 25 points, beating Gimcheon Sangmu (24 points). He also avenged his 0-3 defeat in the opening game, which was his first face-off of the season. On the other hand, Daejeon seemed to change the atmosphere with its victory over Daegu, but the defeat gave Jeonbuk Hyundai the lead and came down to second place.
Daejeon changed its place compared to the last match against Daegu. Instead of Martha, Kim Joon-beom was included in the starting list. Kim Joon-beom formed a waistline with Lee Soo-min and Kang Yoon-sung. In the front, Kim Hyun-oh and Choi Geon-ju were located on the left and right with Joo Min-gyu as the axis. The four-back was composed by Park Jin-sung, Ha Chang-rae, Kim Hyun-woo, and Oh Jae-seok. Lee Chang-geun defended the goal. Gutech, Martha, Kelvin, Jung Jae-hee and Kim Hyun-wook started on the bench.

Daejeon manager Hwang Sun-hong, who met him before the game, said, "I have no friends in the world of victory." He expressed his determination, saying, "I will do my best." "I thought about the rotation, but I thought it would be better to just go even if it was hard because I didn't have a player to change." Manager Hwang said, `It is a team in which the opponent plays collectively. It depends on how we respond. It's a team that emphasizes possession rather than speed, so I think the waist fight will be the key in the end."
