Gangwon was completely defeated 1-3 in Game 5 of the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) League Stage in the 2025-2026 season against Machida Zelvia (Japan) at Songam Sports Town in Chuncheon on the 25th. Gangwon, which had two wins and three losses, fell to ninth place. A red flag was turned on to secure tickets for the round of 16, which will be given up to eighth place. On the other hand, Machida jumped to third place with eight points (2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss).
Gangwon, which took the ACLE stage for the first time this season, was as strong as it was at home. I caught both Shanghai Shenhua and Vissel Kobe. As it was the last game at home this year, the plan was to catch Machida without fail. Coach Chung Kyung-ho said in an official press conference, `Last season, the Maginot line in the round of 16 had eight points. If you win this game, you'll get nine points. "When I experienced ACLE, I felt that I had to win the home game as much as possible to go to a higher position." The Chuncheon victory march is a record that gives us good energy. I will definitely win this game and make a bridgehead to advance to the round of 16," he stressed.
This year, the opponent was Machida. Machida, who took the J-League 1 stage for the first time in the 2024 season, quickly rose to the rank of powerhouse. Last season, he ranked third in the J League 1 and succeeded in advancing to the ACLE for the first time, and this year he won the Japanese FA Cup, the Japanese King's Cup. Machida was the first team that has experienced the J3 League in the last 10 years to win the title.
At the center of Machida are Na Sang-ho Oh Se-hoon and the Korean duo. Both players are special attackers who wore the national flag. Na Sang-ho and Oh Se-hoon started against Gangwon and showed off their class. Na Sang-ho, who entered the second term, shook Gangwon's defense with a cheerful dribble, and Oh Se-hoon, who was at the forefront, shook his height. Na Sang-ho played 45 minutes and Oh Se-hoon played 63 minutes before being replaced.
Machida, who led them, scored three goals in the first half alone. In the 24th minute of the first half, Na Sang-ho's shot bounced off the defense. Asahi scored a non-stop cross and Sento finished with a header. Shimoda scored a left-footed free kick in the 28th minute, and Oh Se-hoon scored a net in the 39th minute.
Gangwon Province did not stay put. Gangwon, which changed three players at the start of the second half, scored a comeback goal with Park Ho-young in the 10th minute of a corner kick. Machida, who is without Na Sang-ho and Oh Se-hoon, has noticeably lost performance. Gangwon continued to target Machida, but no more goals were scored.
