Seongnam only drew 0-0 in the 19th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 2 2025' against Cheonan held at Tancheon Stadium on the 6th. The two teams also had a 1-1 draw in their first face-off this season, but they couldn't determine the outcome in this match.
Seongnam scored eight shots and Cheonan four shots, but not a single shot shook the net. For Seongnam, it was a pity that all four effective shots were blocked.
Seongnam coach Jeon Kyung-joon, who attended the post-match press conference, said, `I really wanted to win the home game, but I think the failure to take advantage of the scoring opportunity is the reason why I didn't win. I will prepare better so that I can score in the next game."
Seongnam put in Leandro and Freitas, who joined at the same time in the second half of the game. Regarding the orders from foreign players, "It wasn't long after joining, so role training was conducted, and time had to be distributed. I went in and the roles were good."
As for the players' difficulties due to the weather, "I told the players. We can't beat the hot and cold weather. The weather is something we have to endure, and I thought it would be a match against the opponent on how to manage the game we prepared wisely. I've been preparing for it, but it's very hard as you've seen. I will make sure that the players rest well, eat well, and produce results."
Coach Jeon said he checked Cheonan's counter ahead of the game and focused on defensive strategies. As for how satisfied he was with the defensive part throughout the game, he trained himself to drag in and stop what the opponent could do. The players understood, and they didn't make the same mistakes when they were countered, and it was easy to respond a little bit. I think I can say it's better than the previous game. To make the opponent more difficult here, we now need a part of the physical operation that can go into space."
As for the fact that there is no victory at home, "I don't play soccer to draw. You have to score. He is trying to make the opponent as aggressive as possible, exhausting him, and trying to score. However, I think you will be frustrated because the results are not coming out. We will continue to try to improve it."
