Professional football Ulsan advanced to the final with a thrilling back-to-back victory in the Asian Champions League quarter-finals against Vissel Kobe (Japan).
Ulsan scored a 2-1 reverse victory with Junio’s penalty kick final goal after an extended struggle in the 2020 Asian Football Federation (AFC) Champions League semifinal match against Vissel Kobe at Jasim Bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar on the 13th.
Ulsan gave the opening goal to Kobe’s Yamaguchi Hotaru in the 7th minute.
However, in the 36th minute of the second half, Beyon Johnson’s tied goal led the game to overtime, and Junio directly scored a penalty kick from the opposing goalkeeper’s foul in the 14th minute of overtime.
With this, Ulsan reached the finals eight years after the first championship of the tournament in 2012.
The K-League team’s finals in the Asian Champions League have been 4 years since Jeonbuk won 2016.
Ulsan has a chance to make up for the regret of being runner-up in the league and FA Cup this season in the finals to be held on the 19th.
Ulsan’s final opponent is Iran’s Persepolis.
