Jeju won the Hana OneQ K League 1 2022 Round 27 away match held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 5th, 2-0 thanks to consecutive goals from Kim Joo-gong and Gerso in the second half.
4th place Jeju closed the gap with 3rd place Pohang Steelers (40 points) by breaking a draw (1 draw and 2 losses) in the last 3 matches and recording 37 points (10 wins, 7 draws and 8 losses).
In particular, Jeju maintained an absolute advantage in the league match once morest Seoul, including 3 wins last year, 2 wins and 1 draw this year, returning to the first division.
Seoul, which had been undefeated in the last 3 matches (2 wins and 1 draw), might not overcome the ‘natural enemy’ Jeju, and maintained 8th place (points 30, 7 wins, 9 draws and 9 losses).
Seoul, where transfer student Ilyuchenko made their first start in the fourth game following joining, attacked more vigorously in the first half, but suffered ‘goal misfortune’ twice.
In the 30th minute of the first half, Jin-ya Kim moved from the left flank to the vicinity of the penalty arc, and the ball caught with her right foot hit the right post and missed.
In the 38th minute of the first half, a right-footed shot from Ki “Captain” Seong-Yong from a free kick opportunity obtained from the left side of midfield hit the left corner of the post.
Jeju, who had overcome the crisis, tasted the first goal in the first five minutes of the second half.
Gerso broke through the left flank and overcame Yoon Jong-gyu’s check in the penalty area, and Kim Joo-gong took the cutback he raised with his head. Seoul goalkeeper Yang Han-bin reached out for the ball that was bound in front of the goal, but might not stop it.
Kim Joo-gong scored his 4th league goal this season, and Gerso provided his 5th assist.
In the 11th minute of the second half, Seoul sent Cho Young-wook and Han Seung-gyu instead of Kang Seong-jin and Keijiro to change the second line, and in the 19th minute of the second half, they changed the right flank defense from Yoon Jong-gyu to Ko Gwang-min to counterattack, but Jeju, who had endured with a solid defense, scored another goal. contributed
In the 22nd minute of the second half, Jerso, who helped the first goal, received a pass from Joo Min-gyu and hit a right-footed shot from the left side of the penalty area, becoming the sixth goal of the season. Jumin-gyu wrote his 7th help.
Afterwards, Seoul used Park Dong-jin and Kim Shin-jin as replacement cards to squeeze their last strength, but they bowed their heads to Jeju’s defensive wall and goalkeeper Kim Geun-bae’s successive save shows.
In the second half, Jeju Kim Gyu-hyung was sent off for an unreasonable foul in the process of blocking Lee Han-beom in Seoul.
At the Tancheon Sports Complex in Seongnam, the visiting team, Sangmu Kim, defeated Seongnam FC 4-1.
Kim Cheon’s ‘last sergeant’ Jo Gyu-seong made two assists for the opening goal, and Myeong Jun-jae multi-goal and Kim Kyung-min took the lead in the victory with one goal and one assist.
Kim Cheon climbed up one place to 10th place by overtaking Suwon Samsung (24 points, 5 wins, 9 draws and 10 losses) by accumulating 26 points (6 wins, 8 draws and 11 losses) with a win in the last 5 games.
Kim Cheon, who is reorganizing the team ahead of the major players being discharged next month, has been without a win in the last 4 matches (1 draw and 3 losses) and no goals in 3 consecutive matches.
Last-placed Seongnam recently beat Incheon United (3-1 win) and Jeju (2-1) to win their first consecutive win of the season, but did not continue the good trend. Seongnam remained on 18 points (4 wins, 6 draws and 15 losses).

Kyu-Sung Cho received the ball connected by Kyung-Min Kim from the right side of the opponent’s midfield and put it into the left corner of the Seongnam goal with a left-footed shot from the front of the penalty area.
Jo Gyu-seong, who was discharged from the military next month and returned to Jeonbuk Hyundai, was on par with Jumin-gyu (Jeju), who was second in scoring with his 13th goal of the season. He also scored goals in three consecutive matches once morest Seongnam.
In the 10th minute of the second half, in the counterattack situation, Kim Kyung-min competed with the opposing defense for the ball that Kyu-seong Cho stabbed near the half line, and finished with a left-footed shot from the penalty tee.
Seongnam counterattacked with Park Soo-il’s pursuit goal in the 20th minute of the second half, but Myeong Jun-jae exploded goals in the 46th and 47th minutes of the second half, and Kim Chun put a wedge. Kyu-Sung Cho also contributed to the team’s fourth goal.
