Seo Jung-won, head coach of Chengdu Longcheong, expressed his feelings about the FC Seoul match.

Chengdu tied 0-0 in the away game of Game 4 of the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) League Stage in the 2025-2026 season against Seoul at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 4th.

I think I did my best on the road. I'm not in good condition after the league. Furthermore, because there were so many injured players, they continued to change positions and operate. I think our players got a precious one point in a tough game. It's one win, one draw and two losses, but I'll do my best to reach the round of 16 without giving up.




Chengdu had bad luck in the 25th minute of the first half when ace Homulo was replaced by a leg injury. Coach Seo said, `The strikers are injured. Felipe is also playing with an injury. Romulo was injured three games ago. It was a situation where he only got treatment and played. There was a worrying side. The players showed a willingness to risk their injuries and play, but (Homuro) seems to have injured the injured area again today"Homuro is the owner of the Kill Pass, which can take the pulse of the game and make decisions. It is regrettable that such a player suffered an early injury."

Based on a solid defense based on the five-back, Chengdu utilized the 'defense post-defense counterattack' strategy. In the 28th minute of the second half, when it was 0-0 tight, Chengdu striker Felipe's score was canceled due to an attacker's foul. Coach Seo said, `I think the players moved well as we instructed them to do. It was an away game, and Seoul had a good striker. First, I wanted to bring stability to the defense and play counter attack when I cut off the attack. That's what I showed on the playground. It is regrettable that the offensive side did not target the opponent's back space."

Seo, a former head coach of Suwon Samsung, faced three K-League teams in the first four games of the ACLE this season. It lost to Ulsan HD 1-2, and beat Gangwon 1-0. Coach Seo said, `The players' game management and technical skills have improved compared to the past. The team that participates in the ACLE has skills. He also has a good playership. I think the players have improved their running of the game, their technical skills, and their tempo."




Chengdu has had one win, one draw and two losses in four games, as he challenged for the first time in this season's Asian club competition. "We will play in ACLE for the first time this season," Seo said. Of course, I thought it would be hard and hard. Nevertheless, the players are actively and confidently struggling. I asked the players not to be intimidated and to play confidently. "I'm sorry for the ranking now that I've played four games, but I think I'm doing well enough."

Chengdu is currently ranked third in the Chinese Super League. Unfortunately, he lost the 29th round and missed the championship. Director Seo said, `It's been a tough year. Last year, it was good to be able to focus only on the league, but this year, the process of continuing to bring the FA Cup, League and Champions League to the top was quite difficult. More games, and many players were out injured"After complaining, "There are three games left. We'll do our best to perform as much as we can in the rest of the game" he said.
