AFC Champions League group stage begins: Hyundai's two heroes suffer a draw, and Daegu Jeonnam Flag wins
This week, the biggest event in Korean football is the official opening of the AFC Champions League. This weekend, four teams representing South Korea competed in the first round of the group stage with their opponents in their different groups, and the four Korean teams were mixed in the end. Wei's "Hyundai Duo" have suffered draws, and Ulsan Hyundai was not safe in the late quarter with a 1-goal lead, and was stolen by the opponent 1 point 1-1.
Jeonbuk Hyundai Motor, on the other hand, exchanged white rolls 0-0 in the confrontation with its opponents. Kim Sang-sik once again encountered a "crisis of trust". Compared with the modern doubles, the two teams in last year's FA Cup final, Daegu and Jeonnam, won the "opening red".
Daegu won a 7-0 victory over the Shandong Taishan Youth Army, and the new foreign aid Zeka completed a hat-trick.
The Jeonnam Tianlong defeated United City of the Philippines 1-0 with the final moments of the match with The Landing, and won again on the Asian intercontinental stage after 14 years. Due to the impact of the epidemic in the AFC Champions League, it is all competition in the tournament system. So the K1 League in the 2022 season will have 3 1/2 weeks without play, and for the four participating teams in South Korea, they can devote themselves to the AFC Champions League.
Lee Seung-woo won the K1 League MVP for the second time
This week, the K1 League's 9th Round All-Tournament Squad was released. In the last round against Shomu Kanezumi, Mizuhara FC striker Lee Seung-woo, who scored a goal + assist, was named the MVP of the round. This is also the second time that Lee Seung-woo has won the award this season, the last time was in the team's 4-3 home win over Daegu, Lee Seung-woo not only scored the first goal of the season, but also helped the team win. Li Shengyou, who has no trust in Europe, is regaining his dignity with the attitude of "the prodigal son turning back". I don't know if the upcoming World Cup, Li Shengyou still has no chance to impress "Bento Fang's heart".
Park Jianxia left office, and Suwon Samsung Blue Wing faced a dangerous situation
This week, the K1 League regrettably gave birth to the first "off-class" manager. On April 15, Suwon Samsung Bluewing Club announced that coach Park Jianxia chose to "resign" due to poor results. Park Jianxia also became the first coach of the K1 league to step down in the 2022 season. Counting Park Jianxia, Suwon Samsung Blue Wing has left three coaches in five years, namely Xu Zhengyuan, Li Linsheng and Park Jianxia. There are many opinions on who will succeed him, with former Daegu FC coach Lee Byung-geun returning to Suwon Samsung Bluewings the most mainstream. Of course, no matter who it is, the crisis that needs to be solved at the moment is the same, that is, to bring the penultimate Suwon Three-Star Blue Wing back to the top six. The departure of the main players, injuries and the continuous invasion of the new crown are the main reasons for the decline in the combat effectiveness of Suwon Samsung Blue Wing, and such a dangerous situation to try to turn the tide, I am afraid that it can only be the old jianghu that has been in the battlefield for a long time.
Jiang Xiangyou became the third Korean aid in the history of the national security team
This week, South Korean midfielder Kang Heung-woo, who ended his quarantine, finally joined the Chinese Super League's Beijing Guoan Club, and he became the third South Korean player after Ha Ayutsung and Kim Hyun-jae. Jiang Xiangyou, who plays on the left wing, debuted at Pohang Iron Man in 2014 and played for the team for 7 seasons (during which time he served in Shangwu for 1.5 years). Recently, Kang Sang-woo was also selected for the South Korean national team, but did not get a chance to play. In 2014, Ha Daejo, who then played for Guoan in Beijing, was selected for the South Korean national team to participate in the World Cup; in 2022, can Kang Xiangyou become the second South Korean international in Guoan's history to participate in the World Cup? Worth looking forward to.
Wounds and illness hit the South Korean Brigade European Legion
In addition to The Jeong Yoo-young mentioned at the beginning of the article, the number of Korean players in this round is pitifully small. Aside from the red card suspension, the biggest problem was injury. Mainz's Lee Jae-seong was announced by the club on Monday that he was "reimbursed for the season" and will undergo surgery. Hertha Berlin's Lee Dong-joon was also declared injured before this weekend's match. In fact, it is not only them, the Bundesliga midfielder Choi Kyung-rok, Schalke 04 midfielder Lee Dong-jiong, who is currently recuperating from injury, and hong Yinxiang, a striker on loan to the O'S Second Division, are all plagued by injuries. For the South Korean European Team, many players are fighting a double battle with "new crown" and "injury" in the 2021-22 season, and hopefully in the new season, they can have less pain and trouble.
