‘Cataclysmic’ Gangwon overcame Ulsan in 11 years… 15 match winless ‘escape’

Gangwon FC, the professional football K League 1, fell into a swamp of 15 consecutive games without a win (7 draws, 8 losses) after the victory over Jeonbuk Hyundai on April 29th. In mid-June, coach Yoon Jeong-hwan was appointed and the command tower was replaced, but the atmosphere was not successful, and sluggishness continued and fell to the bottom. Gangwon produced a cataclysm by defeating ‘#1’ Ulsan Hyundai, and escaped from the bottom and 15 consecutive games without a win. The joy of victory was doubled by defeating Ulsan in 11 years.먹튀검증

Gangwon defeated Ulsan 2-0 in the 26th round of the 2023 K League 1 held at Gangneung Sports Complex on the 12th. Victory recorded in 105 days.

Gangwon, who gained 3 points (20 points, 3 wins, 11 draws, 12 losses), escaped from the bottom. In the previous game, Suwon Samsung (19 points, 4 wins, 7 draws, 15 losses) drew 1-1 with Jeonbuk Hyundai, and Gangwon rose to 11th place.

Gangwon also won a monumental victory in 11 years against the ‘nemesis’ Ulsan. Since the victory on May 26, 2012, Gangwon has continued its overwhelming inferiority against Ulsan with 4 draws and 21 losses in 25 matches.

Gangwon, which had been raging from the beginning of the game, in the 37th minute of the first half in a counterattack situation, Seo Min-woo, who penetrated the penalty box, finished off Gabriel’s ball, and Cho Hyun-woo shook Ulsan’s net. Gangwon completed a 2-0 victory by succeeding in a penalty kick obtained by an opponent’s foul at the end of the second half.

Ulsan (57 points, 18 wins, 3 draws, 5 losses), which continued its solo system with the ‘1st round’, has stagnated with 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses in the last 5 games. On the 15th of last month, Ulsan, who was caught 1-3 by Suwon in the relegation zone, allowed a blow to the lower-ranking team again this time.

Director Yoon, who tasted the joy of his first victory after taking office, said, “I won my first victory after taking office. He said, “I will work harder to continue this atmosphere. Gangwon has not beaten Ulsan for the past 11 years, but the jinx is meant to be broken.”
