Incheon will play against Ulsan HD in the round of 16 of the '2025 Hana Bank Korea Cup' at Munsu Football Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 14th. Manager Yoon activated the rotation to focus on the league. Shorta Kim Bo-seop, Kim Min-seok, Kim Se-hoon, Kim Do-hyuk, Moon Ji-hwan, Delbridge Lim Hyung-jin, Choi Seung-gu, Lee Sang-ki and Lee Sang-hyun were named in the Best 11.
He laughed and joked, `To set the tone of Ulsan,' and then `I didn't come here to lose. I'm not just here to bump into it. Foreign players need to let the old players rest. I ordered to be confident." Incheon's proud foreign players, including Mugosa, Gerso and Barlow, were excluded from the entry on the day.
Manager Yoon said, `There is also something to focus on the league. It's like testing players. If we do well, we will be able to create synergy in the league as well."
Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon will operate the 4-5-1 system. With Heo Yul in the one-top, Rakaba Lee Jin-hyun, Lee Hee-kyun, Kim Min-hyuk and Um Won-sang are located in the midfield. Park Min-seo's signature officer Lee Jae-ik and Yoon Jong-kyu will line up at the four-back, and Cho Hyun-woo will protect the goal.
Coach Kim responded with a smile, saying, `We've taken out a lot, too,' and `"I feel the squad is thick as I make the list." I asked the players to prove it"I hope Um Won-sang, Heo Yul, Rakaba, Lee Hee-kyun, and others do well."."
And "Of course I will respect my opponent. However, this season's goal is 'Double (two wins)'. It is the first match of the Korea Cup. I asked the players to use the game as a springboard."
Ulsan won the Korea Cup for the first time since its foundation in 2017. He will try again to recapture the trophy for the first time in eight years. There was a lot of regret last season. Ulsan advanced to the final, but lost 1-3 to the Pohang Steelers after extra time in a neck-and-neck race against the Pohang Steelers.
Ulsan is slowly gaining momentum with three undefeated matches (two wins and one draw) in the league. In particular, in the match between Pohang (1-1 draw) on the 5th and Jeju SK (2-1 win) on the 11th, gatekeeper Cho Hyun-woo gave the team a valuable point with his amazing penalty save in the second half of the game.
Cho Hyun-woo does not have a comma in the match against Incheon. Coach Kim explained, `I started because I needed a player who needed to be at the center.'
Incheon, which advanced to the round of 16 by beating Chuncheon Citizens' Soccer Team and Pyeongchang United, has 9 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss (28 points) in the K League 2. Currently, he has been undefeated (7 wins and 1 draw) in eight consecutive games.
