Pohang Steelers will start the Asian Champions League (ACL) 2 group stage in the 2025-2026 season, starting with the match against Patum United at 9:15 p.m. on the 18th (Korea time) at BG Stadium in Patum Thani, Thailand.
Pohang will play in ACL 2 this season. Although it is the second part of the Asian Champions League elite (ACLE), the competition of ACL2 is also not easy. Starting with the prize money, it will surpass the K League 1 championship prize with $2.5 million (about 3.4 billion won). The strength of the participating teams, including Alnasr, is also formidable.
Coach Park Tae-ha attended a pre-press conference against Patum in Group H of the ACL2 Group H held at BG Stadium in Thailand on the 17th. Coach Park said, `When I experienced the ACL elite last year, I experienced that away games were not easy. I know that the team called Patum is also a good team in the top three in Thailand. We'll do our best to get good results tomorrow"He expressed his determination.
Pohang has a lot of pressure on its schedule by playing both the league and ACL2 this season. In particular, the operation between ACL2 and the league is inevitably important as it has recently entered an important schedule to confirm Final A. Nevertheless, Pohang did not give up its will to win the ACL2. Coach Park organized the players to win . The players who came to Patum's away game are also players who can show very good performance. However, young players lack participation experience, so these aspects of organizational strength cannot be ignored. So for this competition, I've been building up my organization through practice matches from time to time for a few months. I think I'll be able to show enough performance, and I'm looking forward to it being a game where I can shake off the disappointing results in last year's away game."

As for his opponent, Patum "Not only did he perform well last year, but I know he is a team with history and tradition. As far as I know, we've played four games, but overall, I don't think it's a bad game. There are a lot of things we need to be wary of, and since it's an away game, we're going to look at the overall game and try to change the whole thing a little bit each time."
Coach Park also expressed his willingness to play in the ACL stage last year with good performance. Pohang played in the 2024-2025 ACLE season. I experienced elimination in the group stage. The aftermath of the stolen win was huge. Pohang's one win disappeared in the aftermath of China's Shandong Taishan's abandonment of the tournament. As a result, Shanghai Haigang, which has eight points, reached the round of 16 despite winning nine points based on eight games. It was more regrettable because it was not eliminated due to defeat. Coach Park thinks it's a great honor for him to be eligible to participate in the ACL Elite and ACL2 because he has performed well in the K-League. I think it's also important to be able to continue to appear in this good competition. Unfortunately, it is difficult because we start at the end of the season, but we will prepare so that we can definitely shake off the disappointment of last year's away game this year."
Lee Dong-hee, who is scheduled to be the captain of the game with coach Park Tae-ha, also attended the press conference and said, `I will be the captain of the game, but it is a great honor to be playing on behalf of the team called Pohang. And there are many players who have not played in the league so far, young players, and players who are competitive enough, so we will repay them with good games so that Pohang fans in Pohang can watch the victory" expressed his will.
