[수원=뉴시스] Reporter Ha Geun-soo = Suwon FC manager Kim Eun-joong of the professional soccer K League 1 encouraged the players who worked hard in the chaotic atmosphere caused by the Son Jun-ho incident following the crushing defeat against Jeonbuk Hyundai.
After losing 0-6 in the 30th round home game against Jeonbuk in the ‘Hana Bank K League 1 2024’ held at Suwon Stadium at 7 PM on the 14th, Coach Kim swallowed his regret and said, “It is true that there was a chaotic atmosphere. All the players tried their best to not worry about that and focus on the game, but this is the result.”
He continued, “I think it must have been a big shock for the players as well. I know today’s game must have been difficult, but I hope they forget about it and focus on the rest of the season,” and he embraced his students.
Suwon FC, led by coach Kim, tried to continue their undefeated streak against Jeonbuk from March (1-1 draw) and May (3-2 win), but suffered a feeble defeat.
The team bowed its head after allowing a large number of goals in the final minutes of the game, amid a power vacuum caused by the termination of the contract with Son Jun-ho, who was permanently banned by the Chinese Football Association for match-fixing.
3rd place Suwon FC failed to catch up with 2nd place Gangwon FC (51 points) with 48 points.

Coach Kim said, “I’m sorry for losing by such a large score despite the many fans who came to our home game,” and added, “I tried to lead the team as we had prepared, but I think we made a mistake and ended up conceding a goal. I’ll do my best to get the momentum going and bounce back in the game against Gimcheon Sangmu at home next week.”
Suwon FC is having a difficult time getting through the end of the season amidst various difficulties.
“I feel sorry towards the players,” said Coach Kim, who started off by saying, “We’ve pulled out all the resources we had and have had a hard time getting here. The players have trusted me and followed me through the hard times. I think we need to do the same going forward. There’s no game changer and there’s no alternative. I feel sorry towards the players, but I hope they’ll do their best in the remaining games.”
Coach Kim added, “Although the score was very different, I think we prepared well to some extent. However, the difference is whether we score when we have a chance or not. I think that difference is what determined the win or loss today. However, there are also things I am proud of about our players. As a coach and as a senior, I am grateful to see them work hard and dedicate themselves to every game during difficult times.”
Finally, coach Kim said about Seung-woo Lee, who played brilliantly against his former team, “There’s nothing we can do about it. It’s true that good players get sold. I also congratulate Seung-woo Lee on scoring a goal after his transfer. I hope he helps the team a lot,” and cheered on his former disciple.
