FC Anyang has won three consecutive games.
FC Anyang, led by head coach Yoo Byung-hoon, won 4-0 in the home game of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' against Daegu FC at Anyang Stadium on the 22nd. Anyang (8 wins, 3 draws and 12 losses) broke its three-game losing streak and jumped one notch to ninth place. On the other hand, Daegu (3 wins, 5 draws and 15 losses) failed to win 12 consecutive games.
Anyang utilized a 3-5-2 tactic. Kim Woon and Yago led the attack. Kim Dong-jin, Moon Sung-woo, Kim Jung-hyun, Kim Bo-kyung, and Lee Tae-hee were located in the midfield. Thomas and Kwon Kyung-won and Kim Young-chan were in charge of defense. Kim Dasol defended the goal.
Daegu was a 4-4-2 formation. Kim Joo-gong and Cesinha came out as two-top players. Giovanni, Kim Jung-hyun, Carlos, and Han Jong-moo helped from behind. Jung Woo-jae, Kaio and Woo Joo-sung Kim Hyun-joon were in charge of defense. The goalkeeper's gloves were worn by Oh Seung-hoon.

Both teams were in a hurry. Anyang has been losing three games in a row recently. During this period, he was shaken by allowing one goal and five runs. The situation in Daegu was even worse. Since the match against SK (3-1 win) in Jeju on May 3, he has rarely won. He recorded only four draws and seven losses in 11 league games. On top of that, even defensive center Hong Jung-woon suffered from an injury.
Anyang was ahead in the early atmosphere. In the first 20 minutes, he shot seven shots and pushed his opponent. Kim Woon, Kim Bo-kyung, and Kim Jung-hyun tried to shoot one after another. Daegu showed an advantage in market share, but failed to launch a proper attack.
Anyang, who was tapping, scored the first goal. In the 26th minute of the first half, Kim Bo-kyung collided with opposing goalkeeper Oh Seung-hoon in the process of breaking through. The referee declared a penalty. Yago completed the score as a kicker. Yago scored his second goal in more than three months after the match against Suwon FC on April 19. Daegu fought back, but it was not finished. Rather, he was in a hurry and allowed a free kick to the opponent with a rough foul. Anyang didn't miss an opportunity. Kim Bo-kyung completed the score as a kicker in the free kick situation obtained by the opponent's foul at the end of the first half. Daegu was outnumbered when Cao was sent off for a rough foul in the extra time of the first half. Anyang closed with a 2-0 lead in the first half.

At the beginning of the second half, Daegu took out a replacement card. Instead of Giovanni and Han Jong-moo, Cho Jin-woo and Kim Jin-hyuk were put in. Nevertheless, there was no noticeable change. Daegu tried to turn the tables by putting Lee Jin-yong and Lee Lim in succession instead of Carlos and Kim Hyun-jun. Anyang put Chae Hyun-woo and Choi Sung-beom in place of Kim Bo-kyung and Moon Sung-woo to counterattack.
Anyang cheered up. Choi Sung-bum's net goal in the 36th minute of the second half widened the score gap. Choi dribbled into the opponent's side and completed the score. Daegu tried to score until the end, but failed to achieve its goal. Rather, Anyang tied Mota's net goal in the extra time of the second half and won 4-0. Anyang achieved a scoreless victory for the first time in 107 days since the match against Gangwon FC (2-0 win) on April 6.
