Suwon Samsung beat South Chungcheong Province Asan 2-1 in the 37th round of "Hana Bank K League 2 2024" held at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday at Mir Stadium in Yongin. With the victory, Suwon has secured five undefeated matches (two wins and three draws) and moved up its ranking from fifth to fourth with 53 points. Meanwhile, Asan in South Chungcheong Province, which recorded the loss, remained in second place with 57 points, and narrowed its gap with third-ranked Seoul E-Land to three points.
Suwon threatened the goal with Lee Kyu-dong crossing at the beginning of the first half. Later, in the 12th and 16th minutes of the first half, Lee Kyu-dong and Mulich shot respectively, but were blocked by goalkeeper Shin Song-hoon. Asan, South Chungcheong Province, also launched a counterattack, and Park Se-jik and Song Seung-min scored consecutive shots in the 28th and 37th minutes of the first half. Suwon tapped unilaterally, but it was Asan, South Chungcheong Province, who scored the first goal.
In the 39th minute of the first half, Song Seung-min passed the pass with a header in the air, and Park Dae-hoon finished and succeeded in gaining the upper hand. Suwon, which allowed a blow, also fought back, but failed, and the first half ended in the end.
With the start of the second half, Suwon aggressively managed the game by putting in "Shin Sung" Park Seung-soo. Paulinho had a decisive opportunity in the 7th minute of the second half, but was blocked by Lee Eun-beom's tackle. Suwon, which continued to knock on the goal afterwards, tied the game in the 15th minute of the second half.
In a chaotic situation in front of the gate, Lee Ki-je penetrated the goal of Asan, South Chungcheong Province with a powerful left-footed shot. Asan, South Chungcheong Province, which allowed a tie, also quickly launched a counterattack. In the 24th and 32nd minutes of the second half, Kim Seung-ho and Park Dae-hoon shot, respectively, but they failed.

Lee Ki-je's strong performance saved Suwon's hope for PO
It was a valuable come-from-behind victory. "I think it was well conveyed how desperate this team is and how desperate this team was to lead this team as a coach. I'm grateful to the players, and I'm so happy that I can't express my gratitude in words," Byun said after the game.
Suwon showed dominant soccer throughout the game, but was embarrassed by the threatening counterattack by Asan, South Chungcheong Province. They had a 52 percent possession rate, 16 shots and 10 shots, respectively, but could not easily open the goal for Asan, South Chungcheong Province. Then, in the 39th minute of the first half, they displayed a complacent defense and allowed the first strike, and Suwon's attack power did not exert its influence until the 10th minute of the second half. Amid the crisis, Suwon succeeded in turning the mood around with Lee Ki-je's left footed shot.
Lee's performance was also impressive in the record. After 90 minutes in the stadium, Lee recorded 87 percent of pass accuracy. He performed well in both offense and defense with three successful passes, the most successful long passes (11 times), the most successful crosses within the team (2 times), the 100 percent success rate of ground competition and the most successful interceptions within the team (3 times).
Coach Byun also praised Lee Ki-je for his impressive performance. "I am grateful that veteran players including Kim Hyun and Lee Ki-je came back and played a good role," Byun said, adding, "I want to unite and bring three points that I want to the rest of the game." 토토사이트
