Daegu FC veteran and playing coach Lee Yong-rae made a determined statement.
Daegu was completely defeated 1-3 in the ninth round of the regular league against Jeonbuk Hyundai in the "Hana Bank K League 1 2025" held at 4:30 p.m. on the 20th at Jeonju World Cup Stadium.
Daegu was dragged by Jeon Jin-woo in the first five minutes. Jeonbuk continued to drive Daegu. After Compagno scored an additional goal in the 18th minute of the first half, Jeon Jin-woo scored a multi-goal in the 39th minute of the first half. Jeong Jae-sang scored a comeback goal in the 36th minute of the second half but failed to prevent the defeat.
Lee Yong-rae, who met at the mixed zone after the game, said, "I didn't come out of the stadium what I prepared. Regardless of tactics and things like this, I or the players should play with desperation."
Daegu has seen its mood deteriorate recently. Due to the loss, the team has been mired in seven consecutive losses. After losing 0-1 against Ulsan HD in the previous round, former coach Park Chang-hyun left the team.
"Actually, the coach was responsible for the result, but I'm sorry as a senior as well as the players. I think the players lack a lot as a senior. I think it will be important going forward. In my view, we should stay alert and do it rather than the coach and the coaching staff," he stressed.
Acting coach Seo Dong-won had Lee Yong-rae start against Jeonbuk. "I respect his experience too much. He has maintained quality since he was young. It is a time when he can contribute to his team. He showed positive performance in the last Korea Cup match and is expected to play an important role," Seo said in an interview before the match.
However, Lee suffered a knee injury in the 29th minute of the first half and was replaced by Kim Jung-hyun. "I also wanted to maintain the balance in such a match, but I feel very sorry for the injury. As I said before, players need to come to their senses. Regardless of strategies and tactics, we need to be aware of the situation we are in so that we can change the mood by playing earnestly in the stadium. If it does not change, it will not change," Lee said.
Regarding the injury, he said, "It's not serious. I think I need to get tested first."
Fortunately, Daegu will take rest next week. Gwangju FC played its 10th round match on Tuesday due to its participation in AFC Champions League Elite (ACLE). Lee Yong-rae said, "I think the result changes depending on how you do it in the stadium." 토토사이트
Finally, Lee Yong-rae said, "There were arguments among the players during the meeting, and we talked a lot with the intention of doing well with each other. We need to prepare well for two weeks, but I think the same result will come out if the players play the same game. I think the situation will change depending on how well we are mentally armed for two weeks."
