"You're bigger than making you nervous." Jeonbuk, which has been shaking at the beginning of the season, is in a position to remember.
The team had a 2-2 draw with the Pohang Steelers in the fifth round of the "Hana Bank K League 1 2025" held at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday at Jeonju World Cup Stadium. The team ended its four-game losing streak but ended its six-game winless streak.
Jeonbuk faced the worst slump of demotion last season. It fell to 11th place and had playoff stages, and managed to survive. The team vowed to take a leap forward this season. It appointed Gus Foye, who has the best name value in K-League history, and recruited Song Bum-keun, Kompanyo, Choi Woo-jin and Kim Young-bin to build a solid foundation of players.
However, the team still needs time. Before the match against Pohang, Jeonbuk had to face a dark record of four consecutive official matches. It had only one win, one draw and two losses in the league, and was eliminated with Sydney FC by a combined score of 2-5 in the first and second rounds in the quarterfinals. The team, which was at the bottom of the league, needed a win to change the mood.
Before the match against Pohang, Foye said, "I think my poor performance last season seems to affect me psychologically, but it's natural. I think I get lost when I lose first. I keep trying to fix bad things." "I allowed one opponent's shot last week against Gangwon FC, but I lost when I scored a goal. Sometimes, there are worst cases where you can't even win a single point even though you dominate a match. I did well in the first half against Sydney and collapsed in the second half," expressing regret over Jeonbuk's repeated efforts to give an easy atmosphere.
The team failed to win as it encountered unexpected variables on the day. Jeonbuk scored two goals first with Jeon Jin-woo's first goal in the 25th minute of the first half and Park Jae-yong's additional goal in the 30th minute of the first half, widening the gap. However, Lee Tae-seok made a comeback goal at the 6th minute of the second half, allowing the team to chase after him. In the 8th minute of the second half, the team faced unfavorable conditions for Korea Young's direct exit, and Cho Sang-hyuk's equalizer in the 38th minute of the second half ended in a 2-2 draw.
Although the situation was disadvantageous due to numerical inferiority, the disappointment was repeated as he scored two goals in the first half and allowed two runs in the second half. Jeonbuk also scored multiple goals in the first half in the previous away match in Sydney, but collapsed when Jeon Jin-woo gave up three runs in the second half. The match against Gangwon also allowed only one effective shot just before the end of the second half, but lost in a flash as it became a theater goal. It has lost six points in three recent official matches, and all of them have been lost in the second half, psychologically.
Players also felt a great sense of responsibility after the game. "The team's victory is more important than an individual goal, and it is a shame that I could have made it to the semi-finals against Sydney," said Jeon Jin-woo, who scored the first goal despite his arm injury. "If I get the chance even if I am sick, I should be grateful for the opportunity to play. I have never taken medicine since the day I got hurt. I don't think I'm getting any effect now because I think I'm getting used to it."
Lee Young-jae, who contributed to the first goal through a fantastic pass, looked very determined. On the schedule of the compulsory military, he said, "If it were a weak team, I would not have been able to play in ACL 2. As I am on a strong team, I try to play the game with a stronger spirit. It wasn't that hard, and I just took it for granted." He said, "I have no choice but to try to show the fans what they want. I have to improve more. If it collapses here, it will only be there. I think I can only tell the fans that I will do my best to do well." 안전놀이터
On the day, a hanger with the phrase "You are bigger than I am making you nervous" was hung in the spectators' seats in Jeonbuk. The sentence shows the desperation of fans waiting for a rebound. Jeonbuk, which boasts the most wins in the K League 1, is the representative big club of the K League 1, which always aims to win the title. Even though its status is fading recently, the word "anxiety" does not go well with the name Jeonbuk.
As five matches have just passed, Jeonbuk will have to get up again after the A-match break. "We need to take a few days off and reorganize ourselves. After that, we need to recover from the injury and build a stronger team," Foye said.
