This is what Pohang Steelers coach Park Tae-ha said.
Pohang Steelers won 1-0 in an away match against Daegu FC at Daegu iM Bank PARK on the 27th. Pohang (10 wins, 5 draws and 9 losses) snapped a three-game losing streak.
After the game, coach Park once again felt that winning was so difficult. He gave no runs. I think it's because the whole players played hard. I hope it'll be an opportunity to prepare more during the break and take off."
Pohang won for the first time since the opening of 'Daepak' (a nickname for Daegu's home stadium) in 2019. Coach Park said, `The atmosphere is not easy. I felt again that the jinx was not there for no reason. Daegu, too, but we played in a bad situation. It's really not easy to beat Daegu. It's not an easy team. Although I'm going through a hard time right now, my personal wish is that I can recover my performance quickly and improve a little bit."
He also praised the team for the first time on the day. As for Auberdan-Ki Sung-yong's 'Middle Composition'", he is very good at controlling the game in the center. When I first got it right, I thought the first half would not be easy. I did it strategically. Daegu showed exhausted physical strength in the second half. Overall, while coordinating the midfield, they prepared for Hong Yoon-sang, Lee Ho-jae, and Jorge penetration in the front. I think I've created a lot of good opportunities." Regarding the defense camp in which Lee Dong-hee joined "Lee Dong-hee had a hard time with injuries." It's not an easy situation to run 90 minutes. I thought it would be physically burdensome. I was going to put it in the second half, but I made some selection changes in the morning. The weather is hot. Shin Kwang-hoon was in a situation where the order was changed due to the environment outside of soccer and the weather. Lee Dong-hee is the first combination of Jeon Min-kwang and Park Seung-wook, and it's the first time to completely match it. The scoreless game is expected to build a stronger defense in the future" he complimented.
Pohang will play its home game against Gwangju FC on Aug. 10.
