Melbourne City (Australia) coach Orelio Vidma, who scored one point against FC Seoul, said it was a good game.

Coach Vidma played a good game after the away game of Game 6 of the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) League Stage in the 2025-2026 season against Seoul held at Seoul World Cup Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 10th. I think I played well as I was a difficult opponent. "I was unlucky to lose a point in the first half and had difficulty converting, but I did well in the second half, and I deserved one point."

Melbourne was taken by Lingard, who had a farewell match in Seoul, in the 31st minute of the first half, but followed by an equalizer by Japanese striker Takeshi Kanamori, who replaced him in the 29th minute of the second half. With three wins, one draw, two losses, and 10 points, he fell one place from third place to fourth place.




On the background of Kanamori's input in the second half, Vidma tried to supplement the energy in the front line. Kanamori played the role well. I could do better in a one-on-one situation after 10-15 minutes"He expressed satisfaction with the players' performance as a substitute.

On ACLE ranking competition "It's difficult for everyone. The battle for the second and third places will be fierce. The competition will be even fiercer in the next two games. He predicted that the advance to the tournament will not be decided until the final match."

As for Lingard's assessment "He's not my player. Ask the Seoul manager. I originally thought he was a good player, and he played well today as well."
