Daejeon Hana Citizen and Pohang Steelers will face off in the sixth round of the “Hana Bank K League 1 2024” to be held at Daejeon World Cup Stadium at 4:30 p.m. on the 7th. Hyundai Daejeon (five points, one win, two draws, two losses, seven losses, -2) is in 10th place, and Pohang (three points, three losses, three losses, +4) is in 4th place.
Daejeon, which seeks to rebound, and Pohang, which is unbeaten in four games, met. If they win today, the goal is to win, as Daejeon can leap to fifth place and Pohang to first place.
In the last round, Daejeon, led by head coach Lee Min-sung, secured its first win of the season against Ulsan HD at its home ground. Sang-sung, who had continued since last year, also worked in this year’s first showdown. Daejeon, which persistently targeted the back space, won with Leandro’s first goal and Kim In-gyun’s additional goal.
In many ways, it was a valuable victory. This is because the opponent was the defending champion Ulsan, who was unbeaten. The scoreless score was also encouraging. The decision to switch from three back to four back paid off. Lee Dong-won, Anton, Aaron, and Lee Jung-taek lines blocked the Ulsan offensive, and Lee Chang-geun’s super save was also brilliant.
Pohang, led by head coach Park Tae-ha, drew with Suwon FC at home. Auverdan, the ace of the midfield, scored a golden first goal, but the balance was again balanced by the equalizer given in the second half. Giorgi, Kim In-sung, Kim Dong-jin and Kim Kyu-hyung were replaced, but they ended up in a draw.
Another point to watch is defense. Only three runs were allowed during the five games since the season opened. With captain Wandelsun at the center, Jeon Min-kwang, Lee Dong-hee, Park Chan-yong, Shin Kwang-hoon and Eo Jung-won playing defense, and goalkeeper Hwang In-jae, who has been No. 1 since last season, will endure.
Pohang is overwhelmingly dominant in overall and recent records. It had 29 wins, 18 draws and eight losses in 55 matches in the league, and eight wins and two draws in total in the last 10 matches. It also had two wins and one draw in three showdowns last year.
This is what Daejeon has to overcome to win consecutive games. It is the opposite of the good performance against Ulsan in the last game. This time, he will challenge to escape winless games as a challenger.
Daejeon to break the jinx and Pohang to imprint itself. A match will be held as long as it cannot be withdrawn. 토토사이트
