The Ansan Greeners (owner Lee Min-geun) are aiming for a win after a honeyed two-week break.
Ansan is preparing to host Chungbuk Cheongju FC in the 31st round of the Hana OneQ K League 2 2023 at Ansan Wah~ Stadium at 4 p.m. on April 16.
The two-week break from A-League play has been invaluable for Ansan, not only to regain lost fitness, but also to complement and color the football of new coach Lim Kwan-sik, who is spending his first month in charge. Ansan is now determined to entertain their fans with better performances and results.온라인카지노
Ansan drew 1-1 away to Cheonan City FC just before the break. Although they failed to win, they overcame an early goal to equalize. The performance was good. Ansan had 56% of the possession, eight shots, and five on target, outperforming Cheonan (seven shots, two on target).
Coach Lim Kwan-sik’s attacking soccer was getting sharper and sharper. It’s encouraging to see the synergy between young players like Kim Bum-soo, Jeong Ji-yong, Lee Hyun-gyu, and Kim Kyung-joon, as well as Cheonan’s equalizer and veteran Yoon Joo-tae, in the new structure.
On the other hand, the team needs to overcome its poor goal-decision and shaky first-half performance. If they solve these issues, they will be able to get results and boost their confidence.
Their opponents, Chungbuk Cheongju, are on a 13-match unbeaten streak (6 wins, 7 draws). They don’t have a flashy squad, but their ace striker Jorge, as well as players with experience in K League 1 such as Jang Hyuk-jin, Moon Sang-yoon, and Kim Won-kyun, have helped drive their rise.
Ansan has lost both meetings with Chungbuk Cheongju this season. Back-to-back defeats against the upstart team could put pressure on them going forward. Ansan plans to break down Chungbuk Cheongju’s defense with stronger mental strength and aggressive attacking football.
