-“It seems to be the happiest, happiest, and most meaningful day in my football life.” Midfielder Yun Bit Garam (30, photo) won the honor of the Asian Football Federation (AFC) Champions League (ACL) Best Player (MVP) in the first year wearing an Ulsan uniform. Yun Bitgaram became the fifth ACL MVP among Korean players following Jin-cheol Choi (2006, then Jeonbuk), Roh Byeong-jun (2009, then Pohang), Lee Dong-guk (2011, then Jeonbuk), and Lee Geun-ho (2012, then Ulsan). . AFC said, “Bitgaram Yun was the centerpiece of Ulsan’s second winning trophy.”

Yun Bitgaram, who played in Jeju last year and took on a new challenge wearing an Ulsan uniform ahead of this season, scored 4 goals and 3 assists in this ACL. After resuming the tournament that had been stopped due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) in Qatar, coach Choi Kang-hee’s first match led the team’s 3-1 victory by scoring two goals in the second round of the group stage against Shanghai Shenhua (China). In the 5th match of the group stage against FC Tokyo (Japan), he also scored multiple goals and took the lead in a 2-1 reverse win. In the final match against Persepolis, who conquered the Iranian league for four consecutive seasons, Yun Bitgaram gained a penalty kick four minutes after allowing the opening goal and laid the foothold for victory. Bitgaram Yoon said, “I always think that I have to do more than satisfy myself, but the players around me have helped me a lot, and the mindset to have fun has made good results.”
