On the 8th, a banner was placed on the cheering seat (N seats) of the home team at the Jeonju World Cup Stadium, the home of Jeonbuk Hyundai’s professional soccer team. It was an attempt by Jeonbuk fans to spur Ulsan Hyundai on. Jeonbuk beat Ulsan in K-League 1 regular season, which ended on Day 1 and won the other way around. Ulsan is the most runner-up team in the K-League 1 career (9 times).

Ulsan also won second place. It is in the Football Association (FA) Cup tournament, which consists of selecting the strongest players in Korean soccer, both professional and amateur. Jeonbuk defeated Ulsan 2-1 in the home match of the second leg of the 2020 FA Cup final held on this day. Jeonbuk attacking midfielder Lee Seung-gi (32) scored in a row during the 8th and 26th minutes of the second half. Jeonbuk, who drew 1-1 in the first leg of their fourth away game, won with 1 win and 1 draw. This is the second crown (regular season + FA Cup) in 7 years since the Pohang Steelers in 2013. This is the first time since its founding in Jeonbuk. The FA Cup has been won in 15 years and is the fourth in his career (2000, 03, 05, 20 years).
Jeonbuk faced Ulsan five times in K-League 1 and the FA Cup this season. The note is 4 wins and 1 draw. On the other hand, his opponent, Ulsan coach Do-hoon Kim, failed to beat Jeollabuk-do this season and finished second again.
Jeonbuk got over several bad news. Barau was removed from the entrance for personal reasons. Lee Yong and Han Kyowon were also unable to leave due to injuries. Three people fell from Jujeon. In the 13th minute of the first half, Kunimoto was substituted due to injury. In the first three minutes, Ulsan’s ‘Goalkeeper’ (nickname earned by scoring goals as a public servant) lost the lead to June (34, Brazil).
Should it be called ‘Woojeon’ (Jeonbuk won the championship anyway)? Winning K-League team (8th) Jeonbuk had ‘winning DNA’. In the 8th minute of the second half, Ulsan played with the ball from his field. After catching, Jeonbuk Lee Seung-gi dribbled and scored the tie. In the 26th minute of the second half, Lee Seung-gi received a pass from Jo Gyu-sung and shook the net with a left-foot mid-range shot near the goal.
Lee Seung-gi went from Gwangju FC to Jeonbuk in 2013. He was not the ace of the team, but increased the point of attack once when necessary. He scored 29 goals and 30 assists (7 seasons) for Jeonbuk.
In the 43rd minute of the second half, Jeonbuk Lee Dong-guk played as a substitute. Lee Dong-guk, who had a retirement ceremony on day 1, is undergoing training as a Class A leader from the Asian Football Federation (AFC) in Namwon, Jeollabuk-do. That day he participated in surprise and lifted the FA Cup for the first time in his life.
Lee Seung-gi, who was voted the best player of the tournament (MVP), said: “The team members said, ‘Let’s have Dongguk lift the trophy on the way to his brother. I haven’t always played the main character, but Dongguk hyung told me, ‘Today you’re the main character’ after the game. ”
Jeonbuk will contest three crowns in the Asian Champions League, which will resume in Doha, Qatar on the 18th. Jeonbuk coach José Morais said: “Lee Dong-guk does not accompany the Champions League, and today is the last match”. He assisted coach José Mourinho (now Tottenham) as Inter Milan coach in 2010 to help with the three crowns.
