Cheonan drew 0-0 with opponent Bucheon FC in the 26th round of 'Hana Bank K League 2 2025' held at Bucheon Stadium on the 23rd. Cheonan, which added one valuable point, was at the bottom of the list in 132 days since April 13 before scoring multiple points against Ansan. He ranked 13th with 20 points. Bucheon, ranked fourth, scored 42 points.
Coach Kim Tae-wan decided to voluntarily resign after much consideration as his team remained at the bottom with 5 wins, 4 draws and 16 losses and 19 points in 25 games without finally overcoming the slump that has continued since the beginning of this season. Cheonan announced its separation from head coach Kim Tae-wan on the 20th, ahead of the match against Bucheon.
Cheonan changed the atmosphere by changing the coach, signaling a rebound. In the match against Bucheon, he played with 3-4-3 tactics. Moon Moon-ho, Woo Jung-yeon and Lee Ji-hoon were at the forefront, while veterans Shin Hyung-min and Kim Sung-joon took the center stage in the midfield. Koo Dae-young and Lee Sang-myung played on both sides, and the defense was guarded by Kang Young-hoon, who returned from injury, and Kim Sung-joo and Lee Woong-hee. Heo Ja-woong was in charge of the goal.
Cheonan calmly sought the lead by blocking Bucheon's offensive. However, at the beginning of the first half, Koo Dae-young was replaced by an injury, resulting in a variable in which Misaki was put in. Bucheon's strong attack continued after that, but Cheonan's defense showed its concentration and defended the goal firmly.
At the beginning of the second half, Lee Jung-hyup and Koo Jong-wook were replaced by Lee Sang-joon, revitalizing the attack. In particular, Lee Sang-joon threatened Bucheon's goal several times with his fast speed and active activity, but the shot went off the goal.
Bucheon launched a strong offensive with a total of 24 shots on the day, but Cheonan maintained its concentration until the end and kept the game scoreless. Acting head coach Cho Sung-yong, who succeeded in rising in the rankings in his debut as an acting head coach, said "There were many things to praise defensively. Attacks need more preparation. I fully understand how the fans feel. I will work harder with the players in the future and go up for sure."
Cheonan, which succeeded in escaping to the bottom, will play a home game against Seoul E-Land FC at Cheonan Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 31st.
