FC Seoul is faster.
Coach Kim Ki-dong took the helm of Seoul last season, and led the team to a place in Final A in five years. Seoul ranked fourth in this season, raising expectations for Seoul to secure tickets to play in the AFC Champions League (ALC) next season.
In the transfer window this winter, Kang has filled the spot where Kang Sang-woo (Ulsan HD) left his position with Kim Jin-su, a flanker, and Chung resolved the chronic anxiety of his team's third term by recruiting Seung-won. He also brought in Moon Seon-min to speed up his offense. He even recruited center defender Lee Han-do to support Yazan and Kim Joo-sung, and strengthened his squad across all positions.
Seoul is also looking for a foreign striker to replace Yiruchenko (Suwon Samsung). Although recruitment is taking longer than expected, the team plans to complete recruitment before the start of the season as much as possible.
Thanks to its fruitful recruitment, Seoul is already considered the favorite. Jeju SK manager Kim Hak-beom, who conducted a training camp with Seoul in Kagoshima, Japan, also said, "Seoul did a good job recruiting the team," and Seoul's name appeared frequently in K-League media days held in Korea. Expectations are growing for the upcoming season.
Seoul conducted its first off-season training in Hanoi, Vietnam, and focused on strengthening its physical stamina through intensive training. Since the 27th, it has been boosting its organizational power through an exhibition match in Kagoshima, Japan.
Seoul had a practice game with Honda FC on Wednesday. Originally, the team was scheduled to play an exhibition game with Tegebajaro Miyazaki (J3 League) on Thursday, but the game was canceled due to snowstorms, and Seoul has decided to play Honda anew.
Despite some changes in the schedule of games, Honda had a better opponent. Honda is the strongest team in the Japanese Football League (JFL), and has won the title just 10 times. Although the team is a citizen's team, it is a strong team that is unique in that it is not promoted on purpose. Although Honda Motor Co. has no outstanding players, the team has maximized its teamwork by working together for a long time because the team guarantees retirement age.
Seoul showed an upgrade from last season by taking a fast tempo against Honda. Both teams engaged in intense pressure and physical struggle that resembled a real game, leading to some nerve conduction.
There was also a territorial judgment unique to the Japanese off-season training. With the judgment somewhat in Honda's favor, Seoul scored but was declared offside. The bench including the Seoul players strongly protested, and later the drone video that Seoul posted for analysis confirmed that the scene was onside. 안전놀이터
On the ground, people often said, "Let's not be swayed by the referee's judgment," and Seoul players focused on their play.
The result of the game was 0-1, but the performance itself was such a passing point that head coach Kim smiled and told reporters in the middle of the game, "It's faster than last season, right?"
