With the Asian Champions League potentially, and crazily, still being held we have games coming at us thick and fast right now with playing every midweek. Last weekend saw Suwon FC come from a goal behind against Gangwon to claim their 2nd win of the season, Seoul continued their shocking run of form as they…
In the last round we had the stupidest red card ever as Seongnam’s Mulic got a 2nd yellow card for taking his shirt off after scoring his and Seongnam’s 2nd of the game, hero to zero in 2 seconds flat. Below are my predictions for Round 8 of the 2021 K-League One season.
Round 7 witnessed Suwon FC get their first win since returning to K1 as a VAR-heavy clash with Jeju United saw two goals chopped off for the islanders as Suwon ran out 2-1 victors. There were home defeats for Seongnam and Seoul as Ulsan and Gangwon left with all 3pts. We saw yet another red…
When the 2021 season started I decided that I wanted to profile one player every month, someone who I thought would be the standout player for the month, for one reason or another. For March I was spoiled for choice, we had Ki Sung-yeung finally getting the chance to perform on a K-League pitch again,…
Domestic football returns after a break for an International week that saw Korea lose 3-0 to rivals Japan with a performance worthy of the plethora of “embarrassing” headlines and public apologies that followed it. That the team boasted players such as Na Sang-ho, Cho Hyun-woo and Lee Kang-in made the result all the more humiliating.…
Round 5 saw Ulsan drop 2 more points as they were held at home by Jeju United which allowed Jeonbuk to claim top spot with a 3-2 home victory over Daegu.Ki Sung-yeung scored again as Seoul fought back against Gwangju while Seongnam drew 0-0 away to Gangwon and Suwon FC had PArk Ji-soo sent off…
Round 4 saw Ulsan drop their points of the campaign with rivals Pohang yet again being the thorn in the Hyundai team’s side, a spirited Gwangju side finally fell to Jeonbuk who sit joint-top after a 2-0 away victory. Ki Sung-yeung got his first K-League goal since returning last year albiet courtesy of a wicked…
Round 3 saw Seongnam finally win at home as they defeated FC Seoul with U22 Kang Jae-woo surprising everyone not only lasting almost an hour but also by being one of the best players on the pitch. There was another routine victory for Ulsan as they beat Incheon 3-1 while Jeonbuk both came from behind…
Below are my predictions for Round 3 and the first midweek games of the 2021 K-League One season.
Below are my predictions for Round 2 of the 2021 K-League One season.
Week One of the 2021 K-League One is done and dusted and we had goals, red cards, VAR (obviously), successful debuts and some unsuccessful ones as were treated to a long weekend of football fayre. Below are my 5 picks of things that we learned from the weekend and beyond.
Below are my predictions for the opening weekend of the 2021 K-League One season.
It’s almost that time of the year again when hopes are built, dreams created and expectations elevated all for it to come crashing down mid-summer as Jeonbuk inevitably extend their lead at the top of the table and, for myself, Seongnam lurch from one poor performance to the next. I am of course talking about…
I decided to wait until the last minute to write my final Seongnam preview of the 2020 season as it seemed fitting that I should give my preview as much thought and attention as Kim Nam-il seems to have given his team selections and tactics at times this season.
It was a rain-battered Seongnam fanbase that left Tancheon on Sunday October 10th 2016 having witnessed their team huff, puff and basically look disinterested as they sideways passed their way to a 0-0 against Incheon United in the first of 5 disastrous Relegation Group matches. As the fans made their way around the almost flooded…
