On August 9th at 6:30 PM, Gimcheon Sangmu will host Gangwon FC in Round 26 of the K1 League.
Gimcheon Sangmu currently sits in first place with 13 wins, 7 draws, and 5 losses. Gangwon FC is close behind with 13 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses. The clash between the top two teams is undoubtedly the highlight of this round.
This match is a battle between the spear and the shield. As of round 25, Gimcheon Sangmu has conceded the fewest goals in the league (25), while Gangwon FC has scored the most goals (46).
Gimcheon Sangmu defeated Pohang Steelers in the last round to reclaim the top spot. The military team’s atmosphere is very united, with even retired players giving up their vacations to continue playing for the team, a rare occurrence in Sangmu’s history. These players have not treated their military service as a burden, but rather as an opportunity to fight for championship glory and enhance their careers.
In terms of personnel, speedster Lee Dong-jun has recovered from injury, and his return will make the team’s flanks more destructive. Players like Kim Chan, Kim Kang-san, and Park Sang-hyeok are starting to get playing time. With more new recruits entering the game, the team’s squad depth has returned to its pre-veteran-newbie integration level. Choi Ki-run and Kim Dae-won are currently in hot form, especially Kim Dae-won. Facing his former team, he will definitely try his best to show what he can do.
Guest team Gangwon FC is undoubtedly another dark horse this season. Yoon Jung-hwan, who has just been named the best manager of the month again, has created a flexible and diverse Gangwon. In their last game, they scored 4 goals against Jeonbuk Hyundai. 18-year-old Liang Min-ge, who will join Tottenham Hotspur in the winter, gave a taste of his ability to Kim Jin-soo, who has been away from the big five leagues for many years, turning the veteran into a background character.
In terms of personnel, the team has made significant adjustments to its foreign players. After Yagho was acquired by Ulsan, the team actively cleared out the underperforming and injury-prone Garego and Wellington, and replaced its foreign players. The newly arrived Kovachevic has scored a goal, and Hajic has a chance to get playing time.
In terms of injuries, striker Gabriel is still recovering and unavailable. Midfielders Kim Lee-sik and Kim Dae-yu will also continue to miss the game. The returning Kim Dong-hyun has quickly secured a starting position, and his return is very timely. Another piece of good news is that the team’s starting left-back Yoon Seok-young has recovered from injury. He is very experienced and a master of free kicks.
