It was a joke by Kim Jeong-yong, the executive director of Gimcheon. Daejeon Hana Citizen and Gimcheon Sangmu will play the 19th round of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' at Daejeon World Cup Stadium on the 18th. Daejeon ranks second with 32 points and Gimcheon ranks fifth with 28 points.
Daejeon has been in a bad mood lately. It has only one win in six league games. There is no win in the last two games. It was tied 1-1 against FC Anyang, which was the last game. Daejeon, which played in advance due to Ulsan HD's participation in the Club World Cup, rested in the last round. It is the first game in 18 days including the A match break. In the meantime, Daejeon brought Yeo Seung-won, Kim Bong-soo, Seo Jin-soo, and Hernandez.
Gimcheon, which had been winless in four games, won 1-0 over Pohang in the last round. Gimcheon seems to have safely overcome the transition period with the 8th term being discharged. Some 10 units, including Park Chan-yong, Lee Dong-kyung, Kim Seung-seop, Lee Dong-joon, and Park Sang-hyuk, joined the center of the 9th term, and Jeon Byeong-gwan, Park Se-jin, and Kim Lee-seok. As the performance was good, the range of change is expected to grow bigger and bigger.
In Gimcheon, the late former sergeant Kim Lee-seok, Lee Jung-taek, and Park Chul-woo are waiting on the bench. All eight were excluded. Park Sang-hyuk and Lee Dong-kyung will form a two-top team, while Won Ki-jong Maeng Sung-woong, Lee Seung-won and Kim Seung-seop will set up the midfield. The Four Bag is composed by Choi Ye-hoon, Park Chan-yong, and Kim Kang-san Oh In-pyo. Lee Joo-hyun wears goalkeeper gloves.
Coach Chung said in an interview before the game, `It is a transitional period in which a large number of people have been discharged. It's a time of change, but it's not going out as a group, but it's leaving step by step. Here came the recruits. The eighth period was excluded, but Kim Min-deok had an ankle injury and Yoo Kang-hyun had sensitive problems at the last minute, so he was excluded. I will play in the next game."
Gimcheon is in a chaotic situation with a mix of discharge students and recruits. Coach Chung said, `We are bringing players in good condition first. The players who came today are in good shape. Players who already existed should also be given a chance. I want to give many opportunities not only because I have to be good at soccer but also because I have to be good at the unit. It's not easy to motivate him, but he keeps talking."
Chung will meet Kim Bong-soo, who was a student until recently. Kim Bong-soo wore a Daejeon uniform immediately after being discharged from the military. Director Chung said, "(Laughs) I'll see if he'll be ungrateful (laughs). It's actually nice to see. Didn't he increase his value by playing in Gimcheon. Mo Jae-hyun and Kim Bong-soo are good to see. As a coach, I hope all the players here are like that."
Coach Chung said lastly, `We continue to face the rest team. Daejeon, which had a good rest, will play 110 percent to catch up with Jeonbuk Hyundai. A difficult match is expected. Overall, we will look at it carefully and operate it."
