With this victory, Hwang Seon-hong advanced to the finals with all six wins. In particular, they boasted an overwhelming firepower show, scoring as many as 25 goals in the process. In the finals to be held on the 7th, they will clash with ‘eternal rivals’ Japan, who came first after completely defeating Hong Kong in the semifinals, for the championship.
Coach Hwang always used the 4-2-3-1 formation. Cho Young-wook (Gimcheon Sangmu) played as a frontline striker. Led by Jung Woo-young, Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) and Eom Won-sang (Ulsan Hyundai) were in the second line and led the attack. Baek Seung-ho (Jeonbuk Hyundai) and Hong Hyun-seok (KAA Gent) protected their backs.
From the left, Seol Young-woo (Ulsan), Park Jin-seop (Jeonbuk), Lee Han-beom (FC Seoul), and Hwang Jae-won (Daegu FC) formed the defensive line. The goal was guarded by Lee Gwang-yeon (Gangwon FC). Ko Young-jun (Pohang Steelers), Kim Tae-hyun (Vegalta Sendai), Park Jae-yong, Song Min-gyu (Jeonbuk), Ahn Jae-jun (Bucheon FC), and Jeong Ho-yeon (Gwangju FC) started on the bench.
Coach Hwang said, “We need to prepare well tactically, and I think the ‘best enemy’ is within us. “We need to stay alert and confident, but take a step back and think,” he said, and pledged to win, adding, “I will approach cautiously and win the semifinals to advance to the finals.”
It was easy for Hwang Seon-Hong to score the first goal early on. In a free kick situation in the 4th minute of the first half, Hong Hyun-seok made a clever lob pass to the right side of the penalty box, and when Eom Won-sang, who came into the back space, fired a low, quick cross in front of the goal, Jung Woo-young pushed in from behind the rush.
However, Hwang Seon-Hong gradually gave up the initiative and was pushed back, allowing the equalizer. In the 25th minute of the first half, in a free kick opportunity in front of the penalty arc circle, Yasurbek Yaloridinov (FC Olympic) took the kicker and hit a direct shot that hit Baek Seung-ho, who was standing at the defensive wall, on the head and was sucked into the goal.
After reorganizing his line, Hwang Seon-hong slowly regained possession and took the lead again. In the 38th minute of the first half, Lee Han-beom continued to press forward inside the penalty box, causing Saidajamat Mirsaydov (Olympic) to make a mistake, and when the ball flowed in front of the goal, Jung Woo-young caught it and hit the net.
Hwang Seon-hong, who had an uneasy lead by one goal, made a change to change the flow. In the 14th minute of the second half, he removed Lee Kang-in and Jeong Woo-young and brought in Song Min-gyu and Jeong Ho-yeon at the same time. Seven minutes later, Eom Won-sang, who was complaining of pain after collapsing from a rough tackle, left and Ahn Jae-jun came in.
Hwang Seon-hong-ho sighed as he gained numerical superiority in a tight balance. In the 28th minute of the second half, as Cho Young-wook penetrated the front of the penalty arc and received a pass, Abdu-Rauf Buriev (Olympic) made a rough tackle, received a yellow card, and was sent off due to accumulated warnings.
Hwang Seon-hong-ho missed an unfortunate opportunity. In the 40th minute of the second half, Cho Young-wook stabbed a forward pass, and Ahn Jae-jun, who was rushing, hit a shot from the right side of the goal that hit the side net. Three minutes later, Jae-Jun Ahn gave up a pass inside the penalty box, and Min-Gyu Song non-stop shot, but missed. Afterwards, they maintained a one-goal lead in the remaining minutes and won 2-1.
