Byeon Sung-hwan, who said he watched the Incheon game, will make us do a hat trick



"I turned it off (TV) when I saw (Jeonnam) getting sent off."

This is what Suwon manager Byun Sung-hwan said ahead of the pre-interview of the 13th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 2 2025' against Gimpo at Suwon World Cup Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 25th. Earlier, in the match between Incheon and Jeonnam, which began at 4:30 p.m., he said he covered his mobile phone when he was leading 1-0 in the 12th minute of the first half due to the departure of Jeonnam defender Koo Hyun-joon and Mugosa's penalty goal. It was because the game tilted early, so there was no need to watch more. "I just turned it off because I thought I would get stressed if I kept watching it. Coaches said they also scored penalties in the second half. Mugosa seems to have scored half of the points on penalties.(laughs) He seems to be scoring the best penalty ever, so I'll try to make sure our Ilyuchenko gets a hat-trick today." Incheon won 2-0 with Mugosa's multi-goal.

Incheon is on the lookout for all the teams that play in the same league. For Suwon, who is seeking direct promotion after two years of relegation, it is an opponent that must be overcome. Coach Byun's mind toward Incheon has changed from February to March and April to May. It is the time when Suwon has been on the rise since May, with nine consecutive undefeated games. Coach Byun said, `Now I have trust and faith in our players and the soccer I play. As I keep winning, I feel the team is getting stronger. We are trying to instill that our players can do it at any time and are stronger than our opponents."




"There are about 26 more games left. No one knows what will happen, including us, Incheon, and I think a lot of things will happen. In such a chaotic situation, new players will be given the opportunity. The players have to take that opportunity." Coach Byun said, "We are especially carefully managing midfielder trio such as Kang Hyun-mook, Hong Won-jin and Kim Sang-joon, who have not been given many chances to play recently."

The entry on this day changed only one spot compared to the last match against Busan. Instead of midfielder Lee Min-hyuk, Lee Kyu-sung, who joined the 'son stupid' rank, was put in. "Kyu Sung was also quite necessary in the last match against Busan. It was also an important game. However, while providing Kyu-sung with a break, he caught two rabbits with victory. Sometimes watching the birth of a child as a father can be a much greater experience than the result. We shared those points well with each other and went in a good direction. I gave a baby gift to Kyu-sung, and Kyu-sung also turned rice cakes on the team..." with a happy smile.

Kim Ji-hyun also started as an offensive midfielder. Coach Byun said, "Paulinho had a huge impact before Kim Ji-hyun entered the entry. However, Ji-hyun entered the starring lineup as she fell out due to injury after colliding with the opponent in the match against Hwaseong. That's when he started scoring. Paulinho is starting on the bench because Ji-hyun cannot be excluded from the coach's point of view. What's good about our team now is that we're playing such a good competition. As a coach, what I need to do is manage our players' minds so that they don't break."

As for the opponent Kimpo, who is famous for making the opponent uncomfortable, "Basically, we communicated and trained with the team through analysis on how the opponent would defend." From the beginning of the game, I think the opponent can push in. So in a game like today, we need to run the game. It's my style to solve it short when the opponent's pressure comes in, but it's more important than anything else to bring three points this year. I intend to take the lead while running the game.

Some of the women's matches of the E-1 EAFF Championship (East Asian Cup) to be held in Korea in July will be held at Suwon World Cup Stadium. The Suwon club expressed its rejection to the Korea Football Association, but agreed to play only some games. Coach Byun said, `I think the best way is not to pay as much attention as possible. The quality of grass is very important in our soccer. It's not a team that plays a lot directly, but there are a lot of balls on the ground. Since the Suwon World Cup Stadium Foundation manages it so well, I believe they will manage it without any major problems in playing the league after the tournament."

Gimpo, which is in 11th place, is also in a hurry with three points. Kimpo coach Ko Jung-woon said, `I'm not winning right now. The biggest problem is scoring. He scored 11 points in 12 games and doesn't disparage the opponent team, but he has the same scoring ability as Hwaseong Ansan. That's why the defense is bound to collapse. The defense has its limits. The strikers have to score to give them the power to hold on."




Ace Lewis fell into a slump with six consecutive games of silence. Coach Ko, who put Lewis at the forefront of the two-top, said "He's not a lazy athlete, but he's very sincere. My wife came to Korea last week. Two years ago and last year, if I had a wife, I would score. I look forward to a little bit of life now."

Coach Ko said that he was forced to run the game defensively amid the team's sluggish flow, but from the match against Suwon, he plans to raise the line to the half-line and play a 'Kim Po-man's soccer' that puts strong pressure on the opponent.
