That was the smile of Jeonbuk Hyundai coach Gus Foye. Jeonbuk has gone 22 games undefeated. Jeonbuk won 2-0 against Gangwon FC at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 23rd round of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' with consecutive goals by Kim Jin-kyu and Compagno. Jeonbuk, which has been undefeated in 22 games, including the Korea Cup, has 51 points, and became the first K League 1 team to break the 50-point mark this season.
Jeonbuk had a regret that the penalty and goal were canceled in the early stages, but it opened with Kim Jin-kyu's wonderful mid-range shot in the 38th minute of the first half. Four minutes later, Compagno even scored a penalty. Jeonbuk, which enjoyed a numerical advantage due to Kim Dae-woo's exit in extra time, finished the complete victory by replacing Kim Tae-hwan, Hong Jung-ho, and Jeon Jin-woo.
Coach Foyet, who went to the press conference after the game, said "It was a professional victory. He got off to a good start in the beginning. The attack came with a sharp edge. There was a scene where it stopped in the first half, so it was concerning. However, the players finished the first half well thanks to the score without being affected. But the second half was a bit boring. But it's a natural process. We were ahead, we had one fewer opponent, and we were told not to slow down the tempo because it was a midweek game, but the players seem to have adjusted it. But we will continue to get out.'
Then "To give you an example of the Greek national team, we are not a charity. Leading 2-0 and having a lot of one doesn't make any difference. I changed my tactics and replaced the players as I prepared. I was wondering if I should have taken the replacement timing early, but I don't know if this decision is right as a result. Kim Tae-hwan replaced it to manage the card, and Hong Jung-ho also arranged his physical strength. I'm glad that Gamboa made her debut."
Coach Foye pointed out strongly to Song Bum-keun even in a situation where he was winning. He said "I don't know if it's because I'm old fashioned. Looking at the flow of the game, the opposing center back received a yellow card and tried to make a one-on-one with Compagno, but Song Bum-keun couldn't kick properly. I pointed out this part. Maybe it's because of bad communication, but it should be more perfect. That's me."
Despite many changes, Kang did not change. Coach Foyet said, `Kang Sang-yoon is the best player physically. be at the top of the list at high intensity. I thought it would be nice to play in the defensive midfielder, the position Gamboa saw. I thought Gamboa needed a midfielder to play with in the first game. I thought it would be good to play defense actively. As I said before the game, he is a talented player to play in Europe.
