Suwon FC has been on the test. The keynote is ‘Prove without Anderson’.
Suwon FC deals with Gwangju FC in the 22nd round of ‘Hana Bank K League 1 2025’ held at the Suwon Sports Complex on July 18 at 7:30 pm. Currently, Suwon FC is ranked 11th with six league games (2 draws and 4 losses), and Gwangju is ranked fifth with undefeated (2 wins and 1 draw) in three league games.
The situation of both teams is polar and pole. Suwon FC has no victory since May. It collapsed with two draws and four losses in the last six games, and the ranking plunged to 11th place, the relegation. The lack of scoring power, which has been mentioned as a problem, has seen a sign of resolving as the game continues, but defense was a problem. He scored six goals and seven runs during the six -game draw. Suwon FC is a winning victory and breaking the championship.
Gwangjujeon is another test for Suwon FC. ‘Core’ Andersson moved to FC Seoul. Andersson’s departure has been a fact that has been realized for a long time, and now it’s a matter of how to fill the gap. Andersson was involved in half of the six goals, one goal and two assists in the six -game draw. The ‘Anderson dependence’ was high.
Fortunately, Suwon FC began to reinforce the storm with Anderson. He reinforced attackers such as Willian, Kim Kyung -min and Ando, and reinforced the defense by recruiting Han Chan -hee and recruiting Ahn Hyun -bum and Lee Si -young. In particular, he focused on reinforcing the attackers to fill the Anderson gap, and is said to have been appropriate. This is why Gwangjujeon, the first test, where six people can take a breath together.
Kim Eun -joong is planning a strategy to catch Gwangju through harmony between existing players and new faces. Fortunately, it is the fact that Luan has survived in the last two games. He scored one goal and one assist in Jeonbuk, and Luan scored one goal in Gangwon. Kim Eun -joong is expected to plan to use Willian, Kim Kyung -min and Androgo, centering on Sakbak and Luan.
The problem is that the opponent is Gwangju of three games. Gwangju also fell into a swamp of four games (2 draws and 2 losses) over the past month, but he had a bad news with a 1-0 victory in Jeju. Then, it was 2-2 with Daejeon, raising the atmosphere, and winning 2-1 in Anyangjeon and completely successful in the reversal of the mood. It is also Gwangju, who defeated the Korea Cup quarterfinals to Ulsan and has four undefeated matches including the Cup.
Suwon FC is urgently needed to fill the gap with Andersson, but it is also necessary to worry about preventing the water from Gwangju. Asani has recently shown two goals and two assists in two games. In addition, Shin Chang -mu’s work has been raised with one goal and one assist in Anyangjeon. This is why Suwon FC should worry about not only attacks but also defense stability.
