Gimcheon Sangmu 2-2 Incheon United FC
Kimcheon, the managing director of the home team on Rainy Children’s Day, missed the opportunity to win a complete victory in front of 2,651 home fans for the first time in a long time. When Kimcheon failed to decide on a decisive goal in the overwhelming flow that continued until the middle of the second half, Incheon United FC did not give up and persistently followed and won one point. Incheon United FC once again proved why it should not give up, recalling the memory of its 3-3 away game against defending champion Ulsan HD on March 17.
Incheon United FC, led by head coach Cho Sung-hwan, drew 2-2 in an away game against Gimcheon Sangmu of the 2024 K League 1 at 4:30 p.m. on the 5th Sunday, thanks to Gersso’s 85th:14 theater equalizer.
“Kim Dong-min, Kim Gun-hee” proved the reason for the replacement in 110 seconds
Although it was rainy and windy, the home team’s managing director, Gimcheon, overflowed with confidence in a complete victory from a relatively early time. Kim Dae-won scored a thunderbolt with a right-footed mid-range shot in 5 minutes and 23 seconds. The judgment was outstanding when Incheon United FC defenders stood at a distance.
Gimcheon Sangmu opened an additional goal opportunity in the 19th minute with an early cross on the left side by a politician, and Kang Hyun-mook’s closing shot, which was passed by Kim Dae-won, was blocked by Incheon United FC goalkeeper Lee Bum-soo, who emptied the goal and ran.
In the 43rd minute, right fullback Kim Tae-hyun’s left foot roll passed through the Incheon United FC goal line, but Kim Tae-hyun fell from the off-side position by a short distance at the moment Lee Young-joon passed the header.
Kim also scored an additional goal relatively early in the second half, creating conditions for a complete victory. Lee Young-joon’s right-footed push goal entered 56:21 with a perfect assist pass following Kim Dae-won’s quick dribble at the counterattack opportunity after successfully defending Incheon United FC’s right corner kick set piece.
At the 73rd minute, a politician quickly passed the ball that was intercepted in front of the left-hander line to Lee Young-joon, creating a perfect wedge goal opportunity. However, Lee Bum-soo, the goalie of Incheon United FC, who never gave up, slowed down the angle and displayed remarkable performance to block the ball.
It can be said that Lee Bum-soo’s super save moment was the beginning of this game reversal drama. If Kimcheon Sangmu Lee Young-joon finished the shot opportunity with a decisive goal, it would have been a 3-0 run. You can understand the meaning of this scene just by looking at the final scoreboard ending 2-2.
Incheon United FC’s surprising backstretch began to burst in earnest in the 75th minute. As soon as Jeong Dong-yoon, who received a cross from Gerso’s left end row, dug in without connecting with a non-stop shot, Gimcheon Sangmu defender Yoon Jong-kyu put his foot out and knocked it over. Referee Chae Sang-hyup decided that there was no problem at this moment and proceeded with the game as it was, but after a while, a VAR-on-field review opinion came out and checked, the penalty kick was declared.
Incheon United FC’s main striker Stefan Mugosa didn’t miss this important opportunity and kicked a right-footed shot 77:44 into the left corner with accuracy. Then, a few minutes later, he offered up two of his last replacement cards from the bench at Incheon United FC.
At the 83rd minute and 24th minute, both defenders Kim Dong-min and Kim Geon-hee entered the game at the same time. It was hard to understand that only two defenders were allowed in, excluding midfielder Kim Do-hyuk and defender Oh Ban-seok, but Kim Geon-hee was instructed not to play the role of defender but to build a double tower with Mugosa.
And in just 110 seconds, the tying goal, which seemed to be a lie, was scored as the two substitutes connected. Kim Dong-min’s long ball in front of the right side row was dropped by Kim Gun-hee with a header, and it came within the visible distance of Gerso, the Incheon United FC’s express train.
Kimcheon Sangmu replacement member Park Soo-il was the first to touch, but Gerso, who did not give up, ran, pushed out his left foot, pushed the ball, emptied the goal, and succeeded in a left-footed inside shot 85 minutes and 14 seconds to avoid goalkeeper Kim Joon-hong running out.
Incheon United FC goalkeeper Lee Bum-soo, who made the game-changing point with a super save 73 minutes, showed off the value of the hidden MOM in the 90th minute by flying up in the moment of Kang Hyun-mook’s sharp right-footed mid-range shot. 안전놀이터 추천
