Gyeongnam players are disappointed that they were not promoted in the Hana One Q K League 2 2020 Promotion Playoff match between Suwon FC and Gyeongnam FC held at Suwon Stadium in Jangan-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do on the afternoon of the 29th.
The K-League Promotion Playoffs (PO) are literally a life-or-death game that determines the fate of the club next season. Therefore, the pressure is high, and fatal variables such as sending offs and penalty kicks often occur. The team that controls these variables well can achieve what they want.
Gangwon FC, ranked 10th in K League 1, will play Gimpo FC, winner of K League 2 PO, at Gimpo Salter Soccer Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 6th, and Suwon FC, ranked 11th in K League 1, will play Busan I'Park, ranked 2nd in K League 2, at Busan Asiad Main Stadium on the same day. The first round of promotion PO will be held. The second game will be moved to the home stadium of Gangwon and Suwon FC at 2 p.m. on the 9th.
K League 1 teams must overcome each other to remain in the first division, and second division teams must overcome each other to achieve their dream promotion.
Jinyoung Kwon of Busan is sent off during the KEB Hana Bank K League 2 2018 playoff match between Busan I'Park and FC Seoul held at Gudeok Stadium in Busan on the afternoon of the 6th.
As it is a cliff-hanger, the game becomes more intense and heated. During this process, there are many variables that are no different from mistakes. This is true even if you just look at the promotion POs that have been held so far.
In the match between FC Seoul and Busan I'Park held in 2018, a sending off changed the fate of both teams.
K-League 2 Busan defeated Seoul with Homulo's first goal in the 22nd minute of the first half. However, the atmosphere changed drastically in the 43rd minute of the first half when Kwon Jin-young was sent off for an unnecessary rough tackle.
Busan, who seemed to have promotion in their hands, lost this game 1-4 and never recovered in the second game (1-1).
Chungbuk Cheongju coach Choi Yun-gyeom, who led Busan at the time, recalled, “In such a big game, when variables such as sending off occur, the game changes uncontrollably,” and added, “(Kwon) Jin-young suffered for a long time because of that one tackle.” I also did it.
Even in 2020, a moment of wrong judgment changed the positions of the two teams. This year, Sangju Sangmu (at the time), where the hometown agreement ended, was automatically relegated along with 12th place in K League 1, so no promotion PO was held, and instead, two teams, including Jeju United, 1st place in K League 2 and the winner of K League 2 PO, were promoted. I was able to.
Suwon FC, who finished second in the league at the time, was losing 0-1 until the end of the second half against third-place Gyeongnam FC. If this continues, Gyeongnam was promoted. Gyeongnam brought in defender Kim Hyeong-won in extra time in the second half to solidify the victory.
But after that, the situation changed drastically. A penalty kick was awarded to Kim Hyeong-won for pulling a Suwon FC player inside the penalty box after entering the game. It was a somewhat disappointing foul because it had nothing to do with the ball.
K League 2 PO match between Gimpo and Gyeongnam.
In the end, Suwon FC Ahn Byeong-jun (at the time) succeeded in the 9th minute of added time in the second half, and the game ended in a 1-1 draw. Suwon FC was miraculously promoted according to the rule that a team with a higher regular league ranking is promoted even if it draws. .
There are other examples without going too far. In the K League 2 PO Gimpo-Gyeongnam match, which was the final gateway to determine which team will advance to the promotion PO this season, Gyeongnam's sending off had a significant impact.
Gyeongnam, with cold water poured on the good atmosphere, lost the momentum to chase, and in the end, Gimpo won relatively easily and was promoted to the promotion PO.
The lesson from the ‘elevation cruelty’ is clear. The pressure of never losing creates variables, and those variables change the game significantly. In a thrilling match, not making mistakes is as important as demonstrating your skills. 카지노사이트
