K리그 유나이티드? 여기서 쓴 글인듯

여기서도 홍명보 사태는 예상 못한듯

How did they get this far?

Ulsan came close to an embarrassing early exit in June when they allowed struggling Geongnam FC to take them all the way to penalty kicks in June. Gyeongnam opened the scoring but were then reduced to 10 men before halftime. Lee Chang-yong's penalty kick doubled the punishment. Astonishingly, Gyeongnam scored twice in the second half to take the game to extra time, and then re-took the lead. Ulsan found an equalizer as the game ended 4-4. Sadly, Gyeongnam missed all three penalty kicks and went home.

A familiar theme in the last round, Incheon United needed penalty kicks after 120 minutes with Gimcheon Sangmu ended 0-0. It is easy to make fun of the low-scoring matches (apart from Ulsan vs. Gyeongnam) but the playing conditions were atrocious in June. It was at the height of a heatwave and as Nathan Oduwa told K League United, the players struggled to breathe after 20 minutes. Shin Jae-won, a substitute for Seongnam, admitted he didn't want to play. In the previous round, Incheon stumbled past K4's Gimhae 1-0 in Sungui.

Form guide:

Remarkably, both clubs come into this tie having parted ways with their respective managers in the space of a few days. Jo Sung-hwan, Incheon's coach, went immediately after his team's 1-1 draw with Gimcheon on July 5th. The same night, Hong Myeong-bo watched his team draw with Suwon FC. Hong was announced as Korea's national team manager 48 hours later, and intended to stay on for the remainder of the year. But he, too, walked away after the midweek loss to Gwangju FC.

Fortunately for Ulsan, they got their season back on track with a late win over Seoul on Saturday, courtesy of Joo Min-kyu. That win, their first in four games, coupled with Pohang's collapse in Jeju, nudged the champions top. Incheon were also victorious, this time at Gwangju FC. The 2-0 win was their first on the road since May 18th, and takes them out of the religion spots.
