14,196 people entered Suwon World Cup Stadium Overcoming numerical inferiority, beating Asan, South Chungcheong Province 2-1 ‘Man United former’ Lingard makes a disappointing debut
Suwon players of the professional soccer K-League 2 (2nd division) gather together and celebrate their victory after winning 2-1 in the first game of the season against Asan, South Chungcheong Province, on the 3rd. On this day, Suwon was at a numerical disadvantage due to one player being sent off in the first half, but won the game.
Suwon, which was relegated to the second division for the first time since the team was founded in 1995, won the first game of the season and showed a smooth start toward promotion next season. Suwon also set a new record for the largest number of spectators in a second division game.
Suwon won 2-1 in the 2024 season professional soccer K-League 2 home game against Asan, South Chungcheong Province, on the 3rd. Suwon gave the team victory with Serbian striker Mulic scoring two goals. Suwon, who had taken the lead thanks to Mulic's first goal in the 21st minute of the first half, faced a crisis when defender Cho Yun-seong was sent off in the 39th minute of the first half, but maintained the victory. Cho Yun-seong, who played for Asan, South Chungcheong Province last year, received a red card for pushing opposing striker Juninho to the ground. However, despite Suwon's numerical inferiority, Mulic scored a runaway goal in extra time in the first half to make it 2-0. In the 23rd minute of the second half, a goal was allowed to Chungnam Asan's 19-year-old midfielder Jeong Ma-ho, but no more goals were conceded. 파워볼사이트
After the game, Suwon coach Yeom Gi-hoon said, “The things we were able to do didn’t come out when we were lacking one player. “To be honest, today’s game did not show even 50% of what we can do,” he said. “It was difficult and difficult due to the player being sent off, but I am grateful to the players who started the season well.” On this day, 14,196 people visited Suwon World Cup Stadium, where the game was held, and set a new record for the largest number of spectators for a second division game since 2018, when counting of paid spectators began. The previous record was 13,340 people for the Busan-Bucheon game held at Busan Asiad Main Stadium last season.
The previous day, in the K-League (1st division) match between Gwangju and Seoul, Gwangju won 2-0. Jesse Lingard, a former England national team player who wore the Seoul uniform ahead of this season, made his Korean debut as a substitute in the 31st minute of the second half of the game, but did not show an impressive performance. Lingard, who also played for Manchester United in the English Premier League (EPL), is considered to be the best foreign player ever to play in the K-League, but his performance on this day fell far short of expectations. Seoul coach Kim Ki-dong said of Lingard, “The player himself said that his current physical condition is around 60-70%. He said, "We'll have to wait and see, but for now, it won't be easy even if he gets into the game." 슬롯사이트
