It’s a game that will keep you on your toes until the end. Suwon FC and Pohang Steelers will go head-to-head for the ‘number one spot’.
Suwon FC and Pohang Steelers will face off in the 13th round of the Hana Bank K League 1 2024 at 7 p.m. on April 19 at Suwon Sports Complex.
Suwon FC is currently in fourth place with 18 points (5 wins, 3 draws, 4 losses). Pohang, with 25 points (7 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss), leads Gimcheon Commerce (25 points), who have played one more game, on goal difference.
Both teams are in good spirits. Suwon FC escaped back-to-back defeats with a 3-2 reverse at Jeonbuk in the last round. They conceded back-to-back goals from Moon Sun-min and Park Jae-yong in the first half, but turned the tide after Boateng’s sending off. 안전놀이터 They scored three goals in the second half to turn the game on its head, led by substitute Lee Seung-woo.
Suwon FC has been a strong second-half scorer this season.
A whopping 13 of their 14 goals have come in the second 45 minutes. The main reason for this is Lee Seung-woo.
Lee is often utilized as a “super joker” under Kim Eun-joong, averaging just 53.6 minutes per game. Despite this, he has been a game-changer, tied for second in the league with six goals and two assists. He also had a multi-goal game against Jeonbuk.
However, his defense still needs work. While it’s better than last season, when they conceded the most goals, they still have the fourth-most in the league with 18 points from 12 games. 바카라사이트 추천 They only have two clean sheets. Kim Eun-joong’s football is not very attacking, but his defensive focus leaves something to be desired.
If Suwon has Lee Seung-woo, Pohang has Jeong Jae-hee. Jung Jae-hee is second in scoring with seven goals and one assist in 10 games. His finishing has become sharper this season and he leads Pohang’s offense.
In particular, he is a master of theater goals. Jung Jae-hee has scored a whopping four of his seven goals in second-half stoppage time, keeping Pohang fans on the edge of their seats until the very end. However, he hasn’t found the back of the net in two matches since scoring his first career hat-trick against Gangwon in Round 10.
Pohang’s backline is also not far behind Suwon FC.
Fifteen of their 19 goals have come in the second half, six of them in stoppage time. This is why Park Tae-ha’s Pohang team has earned the nickname “Taeha Drama”.
Pohang also has a solid defense. Goalkeeper Hwang In-jae has been making saves every game, and the new center-back combination of Lee Dong-hee-Jeong-min-kwang has settled in nicely, which is why Pohang is unbeaten in 11 matches with the most clean sheets (5) and fewest goals conceded (9).
Meanwhile, the two sides failed to draw in their first meeting of the season in Round 5. Pohang took an early lead through Oberdan, 파워볼실시간 but Suwon FC equalized through Jackson, and the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
