Gangwon coach Chung Kyung-ho commented on the opposing team's lineup in a pre-interview of the 34th round of 'Hana Bank K League 1 2025' at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 26th. On this day, Seoul lowered captain Lingard to the bench and operated a combination of Jung Seung-won, Lee Seung-mo, Choi Joon and Andersson midfield on Banks and Cho Young-wook's two-top. It's a different configuration than usual. In particular, Choi Jun, a full-back, played as a defensive midfielder. Coach Chung said, `Seoul has had a poor position (place) so far, but today, Lingard and Moon Sun-min are likely to be put as the game changers in the second half"He expressed caution about Seoul, which is expected to raise the energy level of the midfield from the first half."
Regarding Choi Joon's use of midfielder irregularities, head coach Kim said, `Ryu Jae-moon returned from injury and was in good condition for three to four games. I've been a player, but in that case, I have good strength and will. But it can't continue to be good. There comes a time when it goes down. Recently, it seemed like a little sagging time had come. Hwang Do-yoon played 75 minutes in the final match of the Saudi warm-up match, and it took a long time to return home as the return flight made a stopover. I judged that I was not in good condition. think about an energetic player I wrote Choi Jun." "Choi Jun once used him as a midfielder in an away match in Gwangju (3-1 win) and a 1-1 draw against Gangwon Province," he added.
Chung picked the first half of the game, which he won 4-3 at home against Vissel Kobe in the Asian Champions League (ACLE) on the 22nd, as his best performance this season. However, he said he was not good enough in the second half. Recently, Gangwon has been pushing hard in the first half but catching up in the second half. Coach Chung said, `We expect that scoring a buzzer-beater against Kobe will give energy and motivation to the players ahead of the match against Seoul.' Unlike Gangwon, Seoul is often dragged in the first half and driven mainly in the second half. Perhaps aware of this, Seoul put playmaker Lingard on the bench. Director Kim responded to a related question "Ironically. I want to have the same performance in the first half and the second half. In the match against Shenhua in Shanghai (0-2 loss), he talked about one position in the second half, but the game changed dramatically. I feel again that things like player psychology and confidence are quite important. Today, we will judge by looking at the flowing situation.'
Seoul, which has been winless for the last three consecutive games, is in fifth place with 35 points. Gangwon (34 points), which has been winless for four consecutive years, is in sixth place, one square below. a close one-point gap. Coach Kim said, `I had a lot of regrets about the last match against Pohang (1-2 loss). I'll do my best in every game`````````````````````````````````. After placing 5th, I will fight for the goal of the ACL round of 16. With the victory over Kobe, I learned that there is enough possibility in the ACL."
