“I’m disappointed with our passion, persistence, and attitude when we needed to win.”
FC Seoul, led by Ahn Ik-soo, lost 0-1 away to Daegu FC in the 16th round of the Hana OneQ K League 2023 at DGB Daegu Bank Park on Thursday.
The team struggled after conceding a goal to Sejingya in the 15th minute of the first half, but were unable to find a way back. After failing to secure a point, Seoul remained in third place (27 points).
Ahn said, “We are disappointed with the result. We should have given our fans a good result after traveling so far. I think I’m the biggest problem. I’m disappointed with our persistence, passion, and attitude when we have to fight through it when Seoul can take another leap forward. We should be able to improve further,” he concluded.
“Preparation doesn’t always translate into results. We need to reward our fans with good content for 90 minutes and show the energy of Seoul to make them look forward to tomorrow. We did our best, but we could see our shortcomings.” 안전놀이터
They were caught on the counterattack by Daegu. Ahn said, “Going ahead is a matter of defensive organization, not counterattack. Against Daegu, who have defense and counterattack as their team characteristics, we had no choice but to score a goal to make up for it.”
The next opponent is Incheon United on the 7th. Ahn concluded, “We have to think about it now. If we show good results and content, we will be excited, but if not, we are worried about the next game.”
