In the first half, the two teams drew 0-0, and in the second half, Jeonbuk Hyundai scored the only goal of the game, and finally beat Suwon Sansei 1-0 away from home, taking three points by the way. After this campaign, Jeonbuk Hyundai expanded its points to 11 points, temporarily ranking fourth in the standings. And suwon Samsung, which has one round of multiple matches, is likely to fall into the relegation zone.
Before the match, Suwon Samsung ranked 10th in the league with 7 points (third from the bottom of the standings), and Jeonbuk Hyundai ranked 8th with 8 points. It's a game where whoever wins can squeeze in the top five. Although Suwon Samsung is a veteran team, in the previous 12 matches against Jeonbuk Hyundai, it has only achieved a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 9 losses, and the advantage of Jeonbuk is very obvious. Especially last season, Jeonbuk Hyundai "double-killed" opponents at home and away from home and 4-0 respectively.
Judging from the performance of the whole game, people who don't know think it is the home of Jeonbuk Hyundai. With 70% possession, Jeonbuk Hyundai has 92 offensive statistics, while Suwon Samsung has only 48. Therefore, Jeonbuk has been known as the "nemesis" of the Suwon Samsung team now, which is not exaggerated at all.
In the first half, neither team had a particularly good chance. In the entire first half of the game, the Suwon Samsung team only had one foot on goal, and it had not yet been shot on target. Jeonbuk doesn't have many shots on goal now, and as of the 90th minute of the second half, it is only 4 shots on goal, but there are 3 shots on target.
In the 76th minute of the second half, Jeonbuk Hyundai played a beautiful offensive combination, and finally Goodeswo passed to Kim Jin-gyu after a successful breakthrough, who won the goal with a kick to help Jeonbuk Hyundai take a 1-0 lead.
It is worth mentioning that the 25-year-old Kim Jin-gyu has been the main player of South Korea's U23 before, and was also selected for the South Korean national team in the round of 12. But in the last two round of 12 matches, he did not play, because of the infection of the new crown and had no choice but to withdraw.
In the end, for the rest of the game, Suwon Samsung was simply unable to launch an effective attack, and 0 shots were on target in only 3 shots on goal.
In this game, the Suwon Samsung team set 2 major humiliating records. First, since the beginning of the 2016 season, Jeonbuk Hyundai has achieved an unbeaten record of 11 away games in Suwon Samsung, and if you think about it, Suwon Samsung has not won Jeonbuk Hyundai in its home stadium for 7 years; second, Suwon Samsung has suffered 6 rounds of no winless in the league, creating the worst start record of Suwon Samsung in the history of the K League.
