Anyang and Seoul drew 1-1 in the 12th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' held at Anyang Sports Complex on the 6th. The two teams, which shared one point, ranked seventh with Anyang (16 points) and ninth with Seoul (14 points).
Unlike the hot pre-game atmosphere, the search continued in the first half. Anyang kept its defense strong, prevented Seoul's offensive, and sought an opportunity with a counterattack. Seoul maintained a high line and led the attack near Anyang Box. However, the flow of '0' ended unbroken in the first half.
The game was heated with the first goal at the beginning of the second half. Anyang took the lead. In the 6th minute of the second half, Thomas saw Matheus slipping into the back space of the defense and delivered an accurate penetration pass. Matheus, who caught the ball, quickly entered the box and attempted a left-footed shot. The ball broke through Kang Hyun-moo and shook the Seoul net. Seoul also fought back. Set piece concentration stood out. In the 36th minute of the second half, Moon Sun-min pushed Lingard's kick into the correct header to balance the game again. Since then, the two teams have maintained their offensive to determine the outcome, but no additional points have been scored.
After the game, head coach Yoo Byung-hoon said, "It's unfortunate, but I did my best, and I'm grateful that we played in our direction without shaking even in difficult situations as I asked the players. It drew today, but thanks to the fans who overwhelmed me with their voices, I was able to gain more strength. It did not live up to the fans' expectations, but there is still one game left. I will do my best to win the game and soothe the fans' emotions," he said.
Regarding the set-piece loss, "I should have tried to score rather than make a mistake, and if I scored on the chance, I could have gone to a good situation, but I'm sorry for that."
As for the condition of Kim Da-sol, who was replaced by an injury, "For now, the cheekbone was torn. I have a game right away on Saturday, but I think it's going to be a little hard," he replied.
Coach Yoo was also warned in the process of protesting the referee's decision. As for the situation at the time "The referee does his best, but anyway, I thought it was the same situation that we kept interrupting in the game and I thought it was a penalty kick. In that situation, they kept giving penalties, so they decided it was a penalty. I should have restrained myself, but I needed to appeal a little" he explained.
He also expressed his confidence in Robin. He added "We showed some today, but the plan for Robin is to score points anyway. I showed a performance that matched that today. It is important to pay attention in the second round and prepare to reach the goal with the players, improving where there was a mistake in the first round."
He also did not hide his will to win the Derby, his hometown against Seoul. Coach Yoo said, `The important thing is that we have one game left anyway, so I think our goal this season is to try to break the game by mobilizing all strategies in any way possible" he expressed his will.
As for the summer transfer market plan "I can't be specific. If I think it's right for the team, I'm going to recruit him. It's not a squad-rich team, so there can definitely be some fitness issues in the summer. If there is a position that is needed, we are planning to recruit him."
