Jeonbuk Hyundai Gus Foye, who played a rough match in the first round of the Korea Cup semifinals, will face the Pohang Steelers with the best 11.
Coach Foyet revealed the lineup for the 27th round of the 2025 K League 1 against Pohang at Pohang Steelyard on the 24th. Coach Foye, who set up Thiago at the front line and placed Song Min-gyu and Jeon Jin-woo on the left and right sides, set up the midfield with Kang Sang-yoon, Kim Jin-gyu, and Park Jin-seop, and Kim Tae-hyun, Hong Jung-ho, Kim Young-bin, Kim Tae-hwan in the back four positions, and Song Bum-keun in the goal. Except for Compagno, all other players were included in Jeonbuk's best 11 this season. Compagno stands on the bench.
Jeonbuk drew 1-1 in the first round of the Korea Cup semifinals against Gangwon FC at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 20th. On this day, coach Foyet started to catch two rabbits, physical fitness arrangement and victory, through a rotation that changed seven players from the previous best 11. However, Jeonbuk did not easily take the lead and finished the first half scoreless, and failed to bring about the flow even though it scored the first goal three minutes into the second half. In the end, after suffering from Gangwon's strong offensive after allowing an equalizer, he had no choice but to be satisfied with the draw. The result was a draw, but it was a game that would not be strange even if they lost.

Coach Foyet said after the game that day "It was a bad game. It was lacking more than usual and the screw was missing", he commented. When asked about the problems of the players who participated on the day, he jokingly said, `What time do you want to go home?'"I think I'll stay up all night if I talk about what I'm lacking." The overall atmosphere, pace, and technical mistakes were frequent. I don't want to blame individual players. It's my responsibility to choose a team. I want to take full responsibility," he added. Regarding the future rotation recycling plan, he said, `Maybe the players who will play on Sunday (against Pohang on the 24th) will come forward as it is.' In the match against Pohang, he released the best 11 that he used in the existing league.
Jeonbuk, which has 22 consecutive unbeaten games (17 wins and 5 draws) in the K League 1, has an advantage against Pohang with one win and one draw this season. However, he has been struggling with Pohang's offensive by allowing two runs in both games.
In Pohang, which has recently won three consecutive games, Juningyo Giorgi will form a two-top and Hong Yoon-sang, Kang Min-joon, and Kim Dong-jin of Auberdan will be in the second line. Shin Kwang-hoon, Jeon Min-kwang, Park Seung-wook, and Eo Jung-won will stand on the defense line, and Hwang In-jae will protect the goal. Lee Ho-jae will miss the match against Jeonbuk due to punishment, but Ki Sung-yueng, who has recovered from his injury, will be on the bench. Ki Sung-yueng was diagnosed with a microfracture of his ribs in the match against Gwangju FC on the 10th.
