Daegu FC, which seeks to escape the relegation, won three valuable points in the away game of Gwangju FC.
Daegu beat Gwangju 3-2 with Cesinha's winning goal in the 32nd round of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' held at Gwangju World Cup Stadium at 2 p.m. on the 4th. Daegu, which led 2-0 with consecutive goals by Cesinha and Jeong Jae-sang in the first half, even faced a 2-2 tie by dedicating consecutive goals to Hayes at the end of the first half and Oh Moon-sung at the beginning of the second half. However, Gwangju defender Jin Si-woo's exit in the 24th minute of the second half gave him a numerical advantage, and Cesinha kicked a penalty kick obtained by Byun Jun-su's handball foul just before the end.
Daegu, which won in three games with Cesinha's two goals, one assist and one assist, succeeded in narrowing the gap between 11th-ranked Jeju (32 points), which drew in the same round, from 8 points to 6 points. Gwangju (42 points) ranked sixth with no wins (one draw and two losses) in three consecutive games. Cesinha wrote 10-10 (goal-assisted) for the first time in six years since 2019.

The home team Gwangju set up Hayes and Moon Min-seo as the offensive leaders and formed a midfield team with Jung Ji-hoon, Choi Kyung-rok, Lee Kang-hyun, afternoon star. Cho Sung-kwon, Byun Jun-su, Jin Si-woo and Shim Sang-min took charge of the four-back, and Kim Kyung-min defended the goal.
The away team Daegu deployed Cesinha and Kim Joo-gong to the offensive team and formed a midfield team of politicians Ramas and Kim Jung-hyun. Hwang Jae-won, Woo Joo-sung, Cao Cao, and Jeong Heon-taek lined up as four backs, and Han Tae-hee wore goalie gloves.
In the fourth minute of the first half, Daegu took the lead by scoring the first 'admission goal'. It was determined that Jin Si-woo walked Kim Joo-gong's leg at a time when Kim Joo-gong received a politician's space pass and penetrated into the door. Cesinha's first penalty was blocked by Kim Kyung-min. However, with Kim Kyung-min's foul play, Cesinha took the opportunity again, and this time calmly kicked it into the left corner of the goal.
Gwangju has launched a counterattack. In the 15th minute, Moon Min-seo's cross touched Cho Sung-kwon's forehead in front of the goal, but it went off the post. Cesinha's mid-range shot in the 18th minute missed the post. 31 min Hayes' volley hit the body of the Daegu defender and lost power. Gwangju coach Lee Jung-hyo brought Moon Min-seo to the bench in the 30th minute of the first half and introduced midfielder Yoo Je-ho to make changes to the midfield.
Daegu scored an additional goal in the 36th minute of the first half when the slugfest continued. Daegu, which had put Gwangju's defense in trouble with a counterattack using politician Cesinha, shook the net with a counterattack. The politician poked a pass at Cesinha, who ran to the empty space on the left. Cesinha sent a left-footed cross from the left side of the goal area toward the front of the goal, and Jeong Jae-sang, who was in a no-mark situation, calmly pushed it in.

It wasn't Gwangju that would sit still. Four minutes later, in the 40th minute, Ramas walked Shim Sang-min's leg while Shim Sang-min broke through the box. Hayes, who played as a penalty kicker, scored a comeback goal with a strong right-footed shot into the bottom left of the goal. Coach Kim, who felt a sense of crisis due to the opponent's continued offensive, put in defender Hong Jung-woon without striker Jung Jae-sang ahead of the end of the first half, and finished with a goal ahead of the first half 2-1.
Gwangju took out Jung Ji-hoon at half-time and added Park In-hyuk to revitalize the side. In the fifth minute of the second half, Gwangju quickly scored an equalizer. Oh Ho-sung's cross from the left to the gate was deflected off Hwang Jae-won's leg and rolled toward the goal. While Daegu's defense and Han Tae-hee failed to react quickly, Choi Kyung-rok ran at a scary speed toward the ball. Han Tae-hee belatedly threw herself to block the ball and committed a foul on Choi Kyung-rok. It was PK. This time, Oh Ho-sung stepped up as a kicker and boldly inserted the ball into the middle of the goal.
Daegu raised its offensive by bringing in Hong Jung-un Ramas and politicians in turn, and putting in Park Dae-hoon Edgar and Giovanni. A large variable burst in the 24th minute of the second half. Jin Si-woo was warned of hitting the opponent in the face with his legs in a competition with Edgar for an aerial ball. Jin Si-woo, who was warned in the scene of giving up a penalty kick in the first half, eventually left with a cumulative warning.
Daegu, which had a numerical advantage, swallowed its regret in the 29th minute when Cesinha's shot hit the side net. Gwangju has entered the defensive mode by excluding Lee Kang-hyun and Choi Kyung-rok and putting in Ahn Young-gyu and Ha Seung-woon. Daegu continued to drive around Cesinha. The Gwangju goal, which seemed to open but did not open, only opened in the fifth minute of the second half. Edgar's header hit Byun Jun-su's arm in a corner kick situation. The referee declared a penalty after an on-field review, and Cesinha stepped in as a kicker and cut the net.
