Coach Kim Do-kyun's plan to turn the tables is 'You have to score in the first half, you have to run a lot to live'



"The goal of scoring in the first half is to run a lot."

It was a pledge made by Seoul E-Land coach Kim Do-kyun. Jeonbuk Hyundai and E-Land will play the second round of the promotion playoff of the 「Hana Bank K League 2024」 at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 8th. Jeonbuk won 2-1 in the first round at E-Land Home Seoul Mokdong Stadium on the 1st. Jeonbuk, which tries to avoid its first relegation, and E-Land, which tries to win its first promotion, will be determined in the second round.

E-Land, who dreams of turning the tables, needs to win by two goals. Although it has fallen to the promotion PO, it is not an easy mission against Jeonbuk, which has the best K-League history. On the contrary, however, the atmosphere seems to be that it went well. The direction to go became clear. E-Land plans to shake Jeonbuk from the beginning with its offensive soccer. If only the first goal is scored in the early hours, it is judged that there is a chance of winning.




It's a reasonable calculation. E-Land gained confidence in the first game that 'It's worth a try. Osmar scored an equalizer in the third minute of the second half, and he continued to push his opponent. If the finish had gone well, I could have caught a big fish. Coach Kim Do-kyun said after the game, `The performance was not bad. He has adapted well to Jeonbuk." Players such as Osmar and Seo Jae-min also said, `I think I can do better in the second game.'

Above all, head coach Kim Do-kyun has experience of flipping in the elevation PO. Coach Kim, who led Suwon FC to the promotion PO last year, lost the first game, but wrote the drama of the second game. At that time, the score in the first round was also 1-2.

However, it could collapse with a counterattack if it proceeds with an attack. E-Land was defensively run in the first half, but collapsed due to the opponent's high-quality play. Manager Kim emphasizes challenging play, but it is inevitably difficult to operate Lee's tactics. It's because of just one goal kick.




E-Land face off 4-3-3. Bruno Silva and Montagno stand on the left and right with Kim Shin-jin as the axis. Seo Jae-min and Park Chang-hwan and Osmar will set up in the Jungwon. Park Min-seo, Kim Oh-gyu, Kim Min-gyu, and Kwang-hoon form a four-back. Moon Jung-in protects the goal. Yoon Sang-boo, Lee In-jae, Baek Ji-woong, Byeon Chang-jun, Cho Young-kwang, Lee Joon-seok, and Jung Jae-min will be.

Coach Kim, who met before the game, said, `I'm not sure if the opponent is still three-back or four-back, but we're thinking about something depending on the opponent's transformation. Basically, we decided to put two midfielders up and defend a little more in front and actively put a little forward pressure."

Coach Kim said, `I was burdened last year, but I think it's half and half. I'm feeling a lot of pressure and excitement, but I don't think our players lost the first game anyway. I'm looking forward to how good I'll perform in the second game and whether I'll bring the results."




As for the burden that young players will feel, "I think the atmosphere at our home is a little different from the atmosphere because it is the away game and there are many away fans. Still, he adapted against a strong K-League 1 team called Jeonbuk.There will be a lot of fans in the stadium, but I don't think they'll care much about those things when they play."

Coach Kim said, `The goal is to follow one goal in the first half,' adding, `When that happens, I don't think there's any need to hurry up, but at least we don't think it's bad if we go to extra time. "I think I can play a good game in overtime, so I think the priority is to follow one goal first."

Then "Brunosilva is not 100% yet. Since he is really determined to play with all his might from the first half and there are many scenes where Bruno Silva creates chances when he plays, I have some expectations for him today. I'm looking forward to the players who will enter the second half because they can do their part enough."

As for the penalty shootout, I did ", but I don't think I'll go that far. I'll finish it within the extension, even if it's long."

"I didn't dream, but I slept well."Coach Kim praised the players for being so good to come here now. I'm very proud that I was able to create this situation, and now that it's the last game, we can't be ahead of each other in terms of technology, so we have to play more, we have to play more, not one foot, but two feet, three feet, four feet. Let's play that kind of football at the end because we have a chance of winning. "
