Ulsan Hyundai’s veteran Lee Chung-yong is not at all worried about the gap between him and second place getting smaller. Just like last year when Lee Chung-yong proudly lifted the trophy, he is not losing faith that he can win this year as well.소닉카지노
Ulsan, where Lee Chung-yong belongs, drew 1-1 against Daejeon Hana Citizen in the 30th round of Hana One Q K League 1 2023 held at Munsu Soccer Stadium in Ulsan at 7 pm on the 16th. Ulsan was dragged down by conceding a goal to Daejeonhana striker Kim In-gyun in the 1st minute of the first half, but Joo Min-gyu’s penalty kick equalizer in the 30th minute of the first half brought the game back to square one. They launched a last-minute offensive and came close to a comeback victory, but were held back by a VAR decision and a penalty kick mistake, and unfortunately missed out on victory.
Lee Cheong-yong met with <Best Eleven> after the disappointing Daejeon Hana match and said, “The result is disappointing in that we could have scored more goals in the second half, but the fact that we showed a different performance compared to the last Gwangju FC match can be meaningful.” He expressed optimism about the team’s situation, saying, “If we play like today, there will be good results in the future.”
Ulsan is currently facing a situation in which it feels increasingly burdened. The days when the difference in points from second place was double digits are now gone. Pohang Steelers are already 6 points behind in second place. Given that there are still enough games left to determine the final winner, it can give Pohang hope for a come-from-behind victory.
On the other hand, Ulsan is anxious. Ulsan fans know well that the 6-point gap is clearly a gap that is not easy to overturn. However, I have had many stomach-wrenching experiences when the gap was overturned. Of course, I trust the players on the pitch and coach Hong Myung-bo, but I feel anxious for some reason because of the unknown.
However, Lee Cheong-yong, one of the most senior members of the team, emphasized that there was no need to worry. Lee Chung-yong said, “I know that the results of recent games have not been good, but that doesn’t mean the players are anxious or anxious.” He added, “There is still a point difference. And I don’t think the fans feel anxious every time we play. And last year, “Just as we achieved the results to show off, the players and fans have faith that we can do it again this time,” he said.
He continued, “Over the past two weeks, the coach has emphasized the players’ dedication to playing for the team. And that kind of play was seen today,” and added, “Unlike the last game (against Gwangju), in this match against Daejeon Hana, our players won. “We showed a lot of will. There are still important games left, so as long as we maintain this mentality and performance, we won’t worry about which team we face,” he said, showing strong confidence.
In addition to Lee Chung-yong, Ulsan seemed to be feeling a great sense of regret over not being able to win the last game against Daejeon Hana. However, even with players who had not played in the game before, they are proud of themselves for being overwhelming in terms of performance against Daejeon Hana. Above all, it was significant that the disappointment of suffering a helpless defeat in the 29th round match against Gwangju was washed away with performance.
It may be impossible to let down your guard, but the fact that Ulsan still holds the lead does not change. Cheongyong Lee pointed out that being nervous or anxious is the quickest path to self-destruction. Moreover, since he experienced valuable results last year, his expression seemed more confident than anxious. Although they have shown signs of slowing down recently, Ulsan’s confidence is not broken.
