In a pre-interview with Gangwon at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 17th of the 19th round of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025', head coach Kim said of Klimala, who was included in the replacement entry for the first time since joining the team, "I have no intention of using it at once." You have to blend into the team"Ducks is now in good shape after a difficult time. Still, Klimala said, "I haven't been in bad shape since I played until recently, but I decided to use Banks first in terms of breathing."
Asked if he found anything good about Klimala during the training, he expressed satisfaction, saying, `The timing of scoring in the practice game and shooting from outside the box was good.'
Banks wore a Seoul uniform on a short-term contract until July. Coach Kim said, `The two players have different styles. Banks is a connected type, and Klimala is a type that escapes into space. I'm thinking a lot. I'll make a decision after consulting with the club", leaving open the possibility of coexistence.
Seoul won 3-1 against Gwangju with multiple goals in nine games. Coach Kim added "I could have scored two more goals."When you play soccer, you have a chance and a crisis. When a chance comes, the team that scores goals goes to the top of the list. He stressed the importance of saving the chance.
Coach Kim put Banks and Lingard on the two-top and formed a midfield team with Park Soo-il, Jung Seung-won, Lee Seung-mo and Lucas. Choi Joon, Park Sung-hoon, Yazan, and Kim Jin-soo will take charge of the four-back, and Kang Hyun-moo will protect the goal.
Due to the A-match schedule, key defender Yazan, who was not included in the entry against Gwangju in the last round, was put back on the starting list. Coach Kim said "Originally, I had to play in the match against Gwangju. It is said that the King of Jordan invited all of his family to a meal to celebrate his advance to the World Cup. It was scheduled to arrive at 11 p.m. the night before the Gwangju match. The selection was difficult, and the plan was to let him play for about 30 minutes in the second half. It was a difficult situation, but I thought it would be right to let the player rest for a game and buy the player's mind. So, since the match against Gangwon-do, he said 'Hit the head and do it.'" I expect you to do well in the rest of the game."
Park Sung-hoon, not Kim Joo-sung, was chosen as Yazan's partner. "Joo Sung couldn't rest a single game, including the Korea Cup." Recently, I also went to the national team. "The match against Gwangju was also an underwater battle, and Park Sung-hoon's performance was not bad, so I thought it was time to rotate the rotation at least once."
Regarding goalkeeper Kang Hyun-moo, who has made big and small mistakes in succession recently, "If you play one season, you can't play well every game." He lost a point complacently at the end, but I don't think he was shaken. I trusted and hired him" expressed unwavering confidence.
Park Soo-il, who started for two consecutive games after being discharged from the military on the 3rd, will also share the right side with Choi Joon. Coach Kim said "The two players are in good harmony in terms of style. We need players with energy like Soo-il and Jun."
Meanwhile, Seoul will play a friendly match against FC Barcelona at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 31st of next month. Coach Kim said, `It's an honor to play against a good team. It's a tough schedule, but I allowed it because it can entertain the fans."
