The growing relegation crisis, fans and club conflicts are also peaked … Daegu FC heading to the worst

(Star News | Reporter Kim Myung -seok)

There was no reversal. Professional football K -League 1 lowest Daegu FC has increased to 13 games (4 draws and 9 losses). The gap with the 11th place Suwon FC, which was less than a match, has widened to two digits. The conflict between the fans and the club is intensifying with the 12 -year relegation shadow.

Daegu, led by Kim Byung-soo, lost 0-1 to Pohang Steelers in the 24th round of the Hana Bank K-League 1 2025 held in Daegu IM Bank Park on the 27th. In the second half of the 22nd minute, I couldn’t overcome the penalty kick preemptive runs allowed by Lee Ho -jae. Daegu was equal to 51%-49%of the ball market share, but was inferior at 5-8 in the shooting number.

I missed the game that must be held for reversal. Daegu was looking forward to strength that had never been in Pohang since the opening of the Daegu Football Stadium in 2019 that the opponent was in the last three consecutive losing swamps. However, Daegu bowed in front of the fans after a sleep, with only one shot in the second half of the day. After 13 games, Kim Byung -soo has not been able to break the trend of eight games (3 draws and 5 losses), including three consecutive defeats.

In that other teams in the relegation zone have completely rebounded or have changed their recent atmosphere, the lowest Daegu falls alone. The 11th Suwon FC, which is the top rank in Daegu, has opened a gap with Daegu in the last three consecutive wins. Suwon FC has played a less game, so the gap may be widened. The 10th FC Anyang also began to escape from the lowest level of Daegu. The 12 years of relegation crisis in Daegu is also increasing.

The anger of Daegu fans eventually exploded with the helpless performance and results. According to the soccer and Daegu fans, the fans did not leave the stadium after the Pohang war on the 27th. Instead of the so -called ‘Virtue’, which blocks the club bus, he expressed anger at the club in a different way. The fans called the name of Cho Kwang -rae and demanded the interview. However, Cho Kwang -rae did not show up. Fans were poured out of the club’s clarification, such as bad body or no vehicles. At that time, the situation was delivered through Daegu fan’s YouTube live broadcast.

The confrontation between the fans and the team officials who filled the supporter seats lasted nearly three hours after the game. In the process, some of the fans and the club staff, who had emotions, took place. Despite the frustrating situation, Cho Kwang -rae did not show up. The long confrontation was managed by the club to hold a meeting with the fans. Fans asked the club for public meetings without restrictions on the number of people. The club also decided to make a relevant notice soon after searching for a place to accommodate as many people as possible.

As the goal of the conflict deepens, the meeting scheduled later this month is expected to be held in the atmosphere of the day. It is also unclear whether Cho Kwang -rae, who did not respond to the call of the fans, will attend the meeting. “What does the meeting mean now, but what does the meeting mean now?” The situation in Daegu is heading for the worst, even in the midst of its helpless performance.
