"From now on, we have to prepare for the game to win three points in every game."

Suwon FC head coach Kim Eun-joong expressed his strong determination to win ahead of the return match against FC Anyang in the 18th round of Hana Bank's K League 1 at 7 p.m. on the 14th at Suwon Stadium.

As Anyang was promoted this season, Suwon-Anyang's 'Gyeonggi Derby' and Line 1 Derby were completed. Suwon Mayor Lee Jae-joon and Anyang Mayor Choi Dae-ho joined forces for the success of the derby. Suwon lost 1-3 in the first match on April 19, when the team owner faced off with the mission of "working a day wearing the uniform of the winning team owner". Mayor Lee Jae-joon carried out the mission of 'humiliating' wearing Anyang's purple uniform. In the home return match on the 14th, he is vowing to avenge 'multiple bloodshed'. Mayor Lee visited the team immediately after training on the 10th and encouraged the team with a special meal.

The Suwon FC secretariat made a provocation with the title of `Raccoon Hunt' by using the 'Anyang Mascot' raccoon. Ahead of the home game on the 13th, all the secretariat members worked hard for more than four hours to prepare a hot cheering match with fans by coloring the Castle Park stands with Suwon's iconic colors of red and blue. Official kit sponsor 'Hummel', which has been with Suwon FC for 12 years since 2014, will also strengthen through Naming Day, sponsorship agreement ceremony, and Escort Kids participation.

Suwon's team also continued its intense training for two weeks during the A-match break. Coach Kim Eun-joong, who met at the training site, expressed confidence ahead of the home turf clash with Anyang. "The players are working hard every moment with a positive attitude. He played eight games in May, including the Korea Cup, without any major injuries. He prepared well to increase detail in defense, attack and set-piece, focusing on recovery for two weeks", he explained. "The new players are now well integrated into the team's training and atmosphere.", he expressed his expectation. Ji Dong-won, who is rehabbing due to a hamstring injury, also started light training. Ahn Hyun-beom, who joined Jeonbuk on loan in the summer transfer market 'Veteran Side Resources', cannot play immediately due to the calf injury, but he expects it to be a vitality for the team in July-August after the East Asian Cup.

Suwon FC ranks 11th in the league with three wins, seven draws and seven losses and 16 points until the 17th round. It is the team with the most draws along with FC Seoul due to its 'strong team and strong team'. It is four points different from the lowest Daegu FC (3 wins, 3 draws, 11 losses, 11 points) and three points different from the 10th-ranked Jeju (5 wins, 4 draws, 8 losses, 19 points). It is 21 points shorter than No. 1 Jeonbuk Hyundai (11 wins, 5 draws, 2 losses, 38 points), and 9 points shorter than No. 6 FC Seoul (9 wins, 5 draws, 4 losses, 25 points).




The remaining 16 games before the split league, and the match against Anyang, is a real match."In order to hit it and go up, we have to win consecutive games in the end," coach Kim said. Suwon has three wins and no consecutive wins this season. Coach Kim said, "(When looking at the performance of the 17 games alone, I think 80% or more of them were good. In comparison, it did not bring about results. There were some twisted parts of the game. Even if the game was not good, it was a professional to produce results and bring points, but it was not enough in that part." "It's important from now on. We have no choice but to prepare to win three points in each game. "

Above all, Andersson's future as the strongest crack in the league is the biggest interest of K-League fans, including Suwon FC, in June. Andersson, who became the "help king" with seven goals and 13 assists last year, has five goals and five assists in 17 games this year. He was involved in 10 of Suwon's 15 goals this season, and there was always a "solver" Andersson at the decisive moment, including a 1-1 draw against FC Seoul in May, a 3-2 pole win against Gimcheon in April, and a 1-1 draw just before the A match break.

Andersson, who met at the training ground, was concentrating on the team as usual. In the summer transfer market, love calls from multiple teams, including the K-League championship competition team and the Asian Champions League participation team, are continuing. Suwon FC considered Andersson's stay as the first option, but it is not easy in reality. In this regard, coach Kim said, `Anderson is a professional player. He is doing his best for the team until the end and keeping the promise he made with me. It's a pity and a shame that we have to admit that we can't go together." "He is a player with good personality as well as skills. It's not easy to find such a player again."




Andersson was literally 'Honey Young-eun' and director Kim Eun-joong's 'Bok-Bok-Dok'. The terms of the 'cost ratio' contract, which was tied to a long-term contract without a buyout, may also be regrettable from the player's point of view, but it can be said that it was the best efficiency for the civic team. If the summer market, which is in desperate need of reinforcement of its power, has to give up the best player in the K-League and more than half of its power, the key and key is to bring out the maximum practical benefits for Suwon. It should minimize Andersson's gap and immediately melt into the mechanical ball, and it should be a transfer that fans can understand.

When will Andersson's future be confirmed. Coach Kim said, `It's simple if it's just a matter of paying the transfer fee, but Andersson's transfer fee is high and we need players, so there are many variables. The coordination process is taking time."
