I'll make changes depending on the game situation." He said "I think the best record in the past was 12 gamesCoach Foyet laughed "Recent weather made it difficult to train. It will change the training time for the next few days. "The stadium is very heated, but the conditions are the same as those of the other team. It's not an excuse.

Gangwon coach Chung Kyung-ho said, `Jeonbuk is undefeated in 21 games after losing to Gangwon. I hope we're the team that can break that." "Jeonbuk is doing unrivaledly well now, but Jeonbuk is also exposed to the half-space space next to Park Jin-seop." I'll do my best in this area" he said. Coach Chung said "Jeonbuk has a lot of game changers in the second half, and it's important how much you control the risk for 90 minutes. We should not lose the ball very often."
