This is the words of Chung Jeong-yong, managing director of Gimcheon.
Kimcheon Sangmu will play FC Seoul at Gimcheon Stadium on the 17th for a home game of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025'.
Ahead of the showdown, coach Chung said, `We couldn't beat Seoul. I wish I could win at this time. I think he played well in the previous home game. We didn't win as a result. This time, I hope to bring good performance and results. " Gimcheon had one draw and one loss against Seoul this season.
Gimcheon is a 4-4-2 tactic. Park Sang-hyuk and Lee Dong-kyung lead the attack. Kim Seung-seop, Lee Seung-won, Maeng Sung-woong and Won Ki-jong will coordinate the midfield. Choi Ye-hoon, Lee Jung-taek and Kim Kang-san Oh In-pyo will take charge of defense. Lee Ju-hyun protects the goal. Kim Jun-ho, the son of Seoul coach Kim Ki-dong, stands by on the bench.
Director Chung said, `Kim Jun-ho didn't bring him because of that (confrontation with his father). I brought all my seniors with me. There are 20 players who will be discharged from the military in October, except for injuries such as Cho Sang-hoon and Yoo Seon. There is not much time left (to be discharged). I wish I could give my seniors a chance. It's a very important game, but I think it'll be a good opportunity. It will be a motivation. "The new soldiers have almost recovered their physical condition. I pulled up my condition. There are only 20 players left in October. They need to improve their condition to the maximum. It is now a situation in which 'standby'.

Kang Hyun-moo, who recently made a major mistake, once again has a chance to select. Coach Kim showed that a few times this year at a little important points. How good do you want to be. I think I was in a hurry mentally. I think you have to overcome it. I think it's more important to have a mindset to bump into and overcome it than to avoid it when a crisis comes. First of all, I think it's better to give trust and do it as a team. - People around me don't know if I whip hard or not. I don't think I'll feel good every day. There is a saying that he laughed after making a mistake. I wonder if it's because it's ridiculous. The expression itself is like that. If people who don't know see it, it seems to be misleading. He said he should change that kind of thing.
Meanwhile, Seoul will play the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) game from September. Seoul won the ACLE ticket as fourth place in the K League 1 in 2024. This is the first time Seoul has competed in the top Asian club competition since the 2020 Asian Champions League (ACL). Seoul will face Buriram United (Thailand), Melbourne City (Australia), Sanfrecce Hiroshima (Japan) and Chengdu Longcheng (China) at home as a result of the draw. In the away game, they will face Shanghai Port (China), Vissel Kobe (Japan), Shanghai Shenhua (China), and Machida Zelvia (Japan).
Director Kim said "I enjoyed the draw. To some extent, it seems that the schedule we want has been set. Australia and Buriram were in a difficult situation, but you don't have to go on an away trip. That's a relief. The injured will be back by then. I think it will be helpful for us when Moon Sun-min and Jung Seung-won return. We haven't talked about rescheduling yet. It was a holiday after the group was formed. I'll discuss that and talk about it."
