As the cause of the recent losing streak was the decline in physical strength, coach Jeon Chang-jin, who arranged his physical strength by employing 11 players in the first half, shone at the last minute, and KCC won a thrilling reversal.

Only two KCC players who played for more than 10 minutes in the first half were Song Gyo-chang (10 minutes 8 seconds) and Tyler Davis (10 minutes 5 seconds).
