"We needed points more than anything."

This is what Daegu FC coach Kim Byung-soo said.

Daegu FC drew 1-1 with the Pohang Steelers at Daegu iM Bank PARK on the 17th in the home game of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025'. Daegu (3 wins, 4 draws and 12 losses) failed to win eight consecutive games.




After the game, coach Kim said "We proceeded calmly as we prepared." It's a pity that the first half of the loss wasn't in the plan. In the second half, we took it about 10 minutes earlier because we felt sorry for missing the replacement time against Jeju. It's been powered. In the end, he scored an equalizer. It was a chance to win three points. I think we did our best"Football is a 90-minute game after all. I think the first half was conservative in the process of finding the balance."

Daegu started Kim Joo-gong and Chung Hyeon-cheol, who were recruited from the summer transfer market. Coach Kim said "I think he's softened when an experienced player comes in. I felt more comfortable. Young players made a lot of mistakes while working hard. In that regard, my physical strength is not perfect yet, but I think the players showed good performance" he complimented.

With the draw on the day, Daegu continued to lose to Pohang in 'Daepak'. Director Kim said, `The record will be broken one day. What matters to me is the points. I don't care about the record."




Daegu will play an away game against Gangwon FC on the 21st. Coach Kim said, `Edgar is thinking about how we can use it effectively. In most cases, there are not many games in which wins and losses are decided in the first half. Given that, I think we need to think deeply about where we can give Edgar strength"We needed a point more than anything."
