K-League 2 is also ‘confused’ this season.
K-League 2 is quite difficult to predict. Each team is different, but we played 4-5 games each. The first round robin is not over yet, but the K-League 2 game this season is also in chaos.
First of all, Managing Director Kim Cheon was evaluated as ‘River 1’. Even on Media Day, almost all coaches predicted Kim Cheon’s direct promotion. That is also because Young-wook Cho, Doo-jae Won, and Jin-gyu Kim joined as recruits while Young-jae Lee and Chang-hoon Kwon were still alive. They got off to a good start by defeating Asan, Chungcheongnam-do and Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do in succession.
But after that, they fell into a two-game losing streak. It failed to surpass Busan I-Park and Gyeongnam FC, which are in the top ranks. They lost 2 games in a row and conceded 5 goals, leaving a hole in the back door. Considering the time when Kwon Chang-hoon and Lee Young-jae are discharged in June and new recruits join, the results of April and May are important for Gimcheon.
At the end of the 5th round, there are 4 undefeated teams. First of all, Gyeongnam is the leader. Gyeongnam, which marks the 4th year since Seol Ki-hyeon took over as head coach, is on a winning streak this season despite no major reinforcements. 5 matches 3 wins 2 draws. They conceded only 2 points while scoring 10 goals. Won Ki-jong has risen as a key striker, and a new foreign striker, Glaison, has quickly settled into the team.
Above all, the defense has been stable. Gyeongnam scored 60 goals last season and conceded 61 runs. The goal difference was -1. Both scoring and conceding were 3rd in the league. Woo Joo-seong is playing the season in good health, and the central defense team made up of Lee Gwang-sun and Park Jae-hwan is adding to the sense of stability. 메이저놀이터
FC Anyang is also on an undefeated march with 3 wins and 2 draws amid bleeding power. In the 5th round, even the content of the match was satisfactory. Above all, Joe Nathan, who hesitated with the sadness of losing his father last season, is showing off his scoring ability. Jonathan has 5 goals and 1 assist in 5 games. He gave up and his breathing got better. The appearance of a new foreign striker, Yago, is also a welcome factor.
Busan (3 wins, 1 draw) and Gimpo FC (2 wins, 2 draws), which only played 4 games, are also in the top ranks. Busan, which stayed in the lower ranks last season, has definitely changed. With the activity and speed of the young players, they have already stepped on the 10th point. The firepower of the foreign duo of Lamas and Peshin is also unusual. The progress of Gimpo is also remarkable. Gimpo, which entered the K-League 2 stage last season, has never lost this season with foreign player Lewis (4 goals, 1 assist) at the fore. In particular, Gimpo scored 7 goals in 4 games, and the only goal conceded was a goal against Bucheon FC in the 4th round.
