He scored one goal and one assist in the second Group F match of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup against Brazilian powerhouse Fluminensee at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on the 22nd (Korea time).
Um Won-sang led Lee Jin-hyun's equalizer in the 37th minute of the first half when Ulsan was trailing 0-1. It was the first celebration of this tournament made by Um Won-sang's speed. He crossed after penetrating Fluminensee at speed. The ball went through the goalkeeper. Lee Jin-hyun was caught on the toes of the rushing people. Lee Jin-hyun scored with a quick left-footed shot.
Um Won-sang was also responsible for the upset goal in the 48th minute, the extra time of the first half. Lee Jin-hyun's cross was answered with a header and the goal was cut. However, Ulsan lost again in the second half, allowing three goals to Pluminensee.
Um Won-sang was also disappointed. He had another decisive opportunity in the 11th minute of the second half. Boyanich's lobbing pass was delivered to Um Won-sang, who pierced the line. Um Won-sang had a one-on-one chance with the goalkeeper, but it was a shame to finish. While faltering just before shooting, the defender caught up.

In the process of falling, his left shoulder strongly collided with the floor, and Um Won-sang failed to return to the ground in the end. Lacava took over in the 29th minute of the second half.
Um Won-sang appeared in the mixed zone with a brace on his arm. He "I have to get tested, but I think there's something wrong with my shoulder. That's what happened when I fell with the goalkeeper. When I always fall, I tend to fall wrong. I lost my shoulder once before, and after that, I had another problem."
Um Won-sang can't laugh even with one goal and one assist. He said "I don't know. First of all, it's very positive to come out in a big competition and make an offensive point. Personally, I've always prepared to win as a team, not to make an offensive point. The result of the game is a bit disappointing."
As for the missed second half chance "I'm sorry. To our team members and older members. To everyone involved. I feel most sorry. Once I put it in, there is a possibility that the game has changed. I could have gone to the difficult game a little more comfortably, but I'm sorry. That's the biggest heart."

Um Won-sang said of Pluminensee "He was good as well. They are very good players and they are a good team, so all members have excellent personal skills. I'm a striker too, but I defended a lot. From that point of view, it was difficult for the opposing central defenders to kick the ball so well. But I learned a lot."
Ulsan, which lost all two games, was confirmed to be eliminated regardless of the results of the remaining Borussia Dortmund games. Um Won-sang "We didn't achieve the goal we brought. The rest of the game is important. I don't think about the previous game and I think every player will try to win, not just me. I'll prepare that way, too. I'll make sure to bring good results," he added.
