Coach Chung Kyung-ho, who caught Pohang for four consecutive wins, seems to have gained momentum against Jeonbuk



"Jeonbuk match seems to be a medicine."

It was a smile from Gangwon FC coach Chung Kyung-ho. Gangwon stopped Pohang's rise. Gangwon won 1-0 with Mo Jae-hyun's winning goal in the 39th minute of the first half in the 28th round of the 「Hana Bank K League 225" against the Pohang Steelers at Gangneung High1 Arena on the 31st. Gangwon (26 goals), which has been undefeated in five recent league games, was on par with sixth-place Gwangju FC (28 goals) with 38 points, but ranked seventh after falling behind multiple points. Gangwon continued its unbeaten run in Gangneung.

Coach Chung said in a press conference after the game, "It was a home game in Gangneung. It was an important time and a game. A lot of home fans came. Gangneung is struggling with drought. He asked the players to create an environment where they can relieve their pain by giving the citizens victory. I'm glad I won."




Gangwon, which unfortunately lost to Jeonbuk in the Korea Cup during the week, succeeded in rebounding on the same day. Coach Chung said, `I think the match against Jeonbuk has become a medicine. He recalled the scene where he lost a replacement timing or lost a point. I did a clean sheet without losing a point until the end. We kept our balance and played in one mind." Then "I focused on resting. I focused on the review of the match against Jeonbuk. I saw the good or disappointing parts. He said we were able to respond in the losing scene. I didn't lose my concentration until the end."

On this day, Park Ho-young tied Giorgi tightly. Director Chung said, `Park Ho-young has grown a lot. Starting with Malkon, Compagno, Thiago, and Jorge, he trained a lot in preparation for tall strikers in the K-League. That part is coming out of the stadium. I will fill in the gaps and grow them further."

Gangwon won, but unfortunately stayed in one goal. Director Chung said, `I'm so grateful that I won. I should be satisfied, but in fact, many points are scored at home, and several chances hit the post and it was a shame. If the score had been scored, I would have done it with more confidence. Still, I'm satisfied with the clean sheet and bringing 3 points. I will practice detailed pattern play so that I can score more goals and positioning that can make the opponent difficult. I will make it possible to develop further."
