Ulsan coach Hong Myung-bo “K-League debut 5-0 win, unexpected result”

‘Passion Map’ while getting wet in the spring rain… “The fans are also raining, so of course it is.”

(Ulsan = Yonhap News) Reporter Choi Song-ah = Ulsan Hyundai’s coach Hong Myung-bo, who won the K-League game for the first time as the command tower, evaluated the result as exceeding expectations.

Coach Hong said, “This is an unexpected result. I didn’t know I would win with so many goals,” he said at a press conference after finishing the home game of the 2021 K League 1 round 1 against Gangwon FC held at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium on the 1st. “The players played smart.” I was satisfied.

In the 27th minute of the first half of the day, Ulsan, led by coach Hong, scored a whopping 5 goals including Yoon Bitgaram’s free kick goal and Kim In-sung’s multi-goal, winning 5-0.

Earlier this year, he took over in Ulsan and made his debut at the FIFA Club World Cup last month, but coach Hong, who first played in the K-League on this day, reported a pleasant first win.

Ulsan, which had to be satisfied with the K League 1 runner-up after being pushed by Jeonbuk Hyundai for the past two years in a row, reinforced the hinter control of Lee Dong-jun, Kim Ji-hyun, and Austrian strikers in the already owned’national squad’, and recruited coach Hong as well. I took on the challenge.

First off, the atmosphere is good.

Coach Hong gave the meaning of the first victory, saying, “There were difficulties with me and the players because of the lack of preparation, but it seems that the players have some room through the victory.”

Regarding the content of the game, “We passed the risk of conceding in the first half and the players started to find the rhythm. After scoring with Bitgaram Yoon, Bitgaram had a strong willingness to score additional goals, and it fits well.” What came out influenced the victory,” he said.

He reaffirmed his position that he will not leave the team despite the recent rumors of a transfer to China, and expressed his gratitude especially to Yun Bitgaram, who scored the final goal this day.

Director Hong said, “We confirmed that there was no official offer for Yun Bitgaram. If there was an offer, we would have spoken more actively about the realistic part, but it was not so, so we talked a lot about the future with the player.” “A player can do well. It seems to be important what kind of environment Ulsan will create so that it is possible.”

On the K-League Ground, 19 years after he was a player, coach Sun Hong continued to appear in the technical area without wearing a hat, and continued his instructions, while heavy rain continued throughout the game.

Coach Hong said, “Because it was our first game, we were standing to teach because there were some parts that did not match each other or were awkward,” he said. “Fans who came to support the players on a rainy day also played in the rain, but we also thought it was natural to do it in the rain.” Explained.

He said, “It wasn’t unfamiliar when I stood in the pitch. The uniform and color I wore were different, but it wasn’t awkward,” he said. “I was standing on the K-League so I could feel the warm atmosphere,” he said.

This year too, as both Jeonbuk and Ulsan, both of whom are nominees for the championship, won the first round, the competition to win the K-League 1 was on fire from the beginning.

Director Hong said, “To attract the public’s attention, a competition system is necessary rather than a single team solo. It is better for several teams to compete for the development of the league.”

He added, “We watched our next opponent, Gwangju FC’s first game of the season (Suwon Samseongjeon on February 28). We will learn what is wrong in our game today and prepare for the next game,” he added.
