Gwangju defeated Seoul 1-0 in the Hana One Q K League 1 2023 30th round away game held at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 17th by protecting Heo Yul's winning goal scored early in the game until the end.

Gwangju recently went undefeated in 10 games (5 wins, 5 draws), including 3 consecutive wins.

In addition, Gwangju, who had not won in 9 games (2 draws, 7 losses) against Seoul, added 3 valuable points in the 10th game.

In addition, Gwangju had only 1 draw and 9 losses in the 10 games played at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, but experienced the double victory of breaking the 'Seoul World Cup Stadium jinx' by winning in the 11th game.

Gwangju, which defeated Seoul, also achieved the record of winning points against all teams this season.

Gwangju coach Lee Jeong-hyo said after the game, "I think the players persevered well in a difficult situation until the end.

We won thanks to the support of our fans on the road."

Coach Lee Jeong-hyo, who said, "I think Seoul will be unfair," said, "Seoul's performance was a little better, but I think the Gwangju players spoke for their results."

He then praised the players, saying, “Even though they were all injured, they fulfilled their responsibilities in difficult situations.”

Coach Lee Jeong-hyo, who said, “I usually sleep well the day before a game,” said, “Honestly, I couldn’t sleep today.

“I thought I wouldn’t be able to sleep if I lost that day, so I stayed up all day, and I think that made me feel better,” he said, explaining the reason he roared after the victory was confirmed.

Regarding the fact that he kept no runs during the three-game winning streak, “Goalkeeper Kim Kyung-min played well.

“I think it is the result of the offense and defense teamwork,” he said, and pledged, “I think we gave Seoul a lot of chances today, and we will improve through analysis.”

Coach Lee Jeong-hyo said after worrying, “My head hurts thinking about the next game,” and added, “There is still a lot to go.” It's a long road.

“There is still a lot missing, and we will work harder to fill this gap,” he said.

Seoul's acting manager Kim Jin-gyu, who unfortunately bowed out to Gwangju that day, said, "I tried to take the game to the game after 20 minutes in the second half when the opponent's stamina was low," but blamed himself, saying, "I think I'm still not good enough."

Regarding the failure to score despite having 18 shots and 9 effective shots on this day, he said, "We increased the midfield battle by setting up the defense with 3 players, but in the end, it did not result in a score.

The players did their best, but the opponent's defense and goalkeeper were unable to score.

“Well done,” he said.

Acting coach Kim Jin-gyu said, "I want to lead the way aggressively.

Instead of changing tactics, I want to continue the basic strategy while replacing players.

If they are not fit for 90 minutes, I tell them to give it their all in 60 minutes, and I think the players are aware of this." He said.

Regarding Ki Sung-yong, who played in his 200th game in Seoul on this day, he said, "I hope he will leave many achievements in Seoul in the future."
