[인터풋볼=박지원 기자(인천)] Mugosa played a big role.
Incheon United defeated Daegu FC 3-1 in the 26th round of the ‘Hana One Q K League 1 2023’ held at the Incheon Soccer Stadium at 7:30 pm on the 13th. With this, Incheon jumped to 7th place with 9 wins, 9 draws and 8 losses (36 points), and achieved 3 home wins in a row following Gangwon FC (1-0 win) and Daejeon Hana Citizen (2-0 win). It is only 2 points away from 4th place FC Seoul (38 points).
Mugosa started for two consecutive games following the Jeonbuk Hyundai Expedition. And he went wild in his ‘homeroom’ Incheon Soccer Stadium. Mugosa built a two-top line with Jerso, and led the development of the attack through possession and linkage from the front. Although he had just joined the team, it was noticeable that he was breathing very smoothly.
Then, after 417 days, he reported a return goal in the K-League. In the 23rd minute of the first half, Delbridge’s header from the Daegu camp was put into the penalty box. After overcoming the competition with the defender, Jerso gave it up with his left foot. Mugosa immediately responded with an exquisite right-footed shot, and the ball hit the goalkeeper’s hand and was sucked into the goal. As he shook his net, Mugosa roared loudly and performed his signature celebration, ‘Strong Man’.
Earned an assist. In the 1st minute of extra time in the first half, Incheon started counterattacking with Moon Ji-hwan’s additional goal, leading 2-0. After Jerso penetrated the dribble, he gave it to Mugosa and quickly penetrated. In line with this, Mugosa put in a through pass and split the net with a calm finish toward the corner of the opposite goal in the penalty box.
Mugosa’s role lasted until the 23rd minute of the second half. He was replaced by Chun Seong-hoon, and the match against Daegu ended with applause from the home fans. It was by far the best performance of the day.
After the game, Mugosa was selected as the Distinguished Player. Mugosa said, “We prepared more specially for this home game. Many people have already said that Incheon has become a good team and has made a lot of progress, so we prepared a lot to keep that word.”
He added, “We are now a team that can score, and we can win because we have a defense that can support it.”

It was a day that made me feel again that I love this place.”
Q. After the Jeonbuk match, you prepared for the game for a week. How did you feel after scoring?

Q. As the quality of the Incheon team improved, did the check on yourself disperse?
