Ulsan won 3-1 against Pathum...1st place in group increases chances of advancing to round of 16

Hong Si-hoo scored the first goal

Professional soccer team Incheon United defeated Japan's Yokohama F. Marinos and expressed hope of advancing to the round of 16 of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League (ACL).

Incheon defeated Yokohama Marinos (Japan) 2-1 in the 5th home game of Group G of the 2023-2024 AFC ACL group stage held at Incheon Soccer Stadium on the 28th.

Incheon, who appeared on the ACL stage for the first time in 20 years since its founding, accumulated 9 points with 3 wins and 2 losses and placed 2nd in the group.

In addition, following a 4-2 victory over Yokohama in the first game of Group G, the team added another victory on this day, achieving their second consecutive win against Yokohama.

Although they have the same number of points as coach Choi Kang-hee's first-place Shandong Taishan (China), they have already suffered two losses (0-2 loss, 1-3 loss) against Shandong, so they have been pushed down in the rankings.

Yokohama, who entered the ACL as the J-League champion last season, fell to third place (9 points, 3 wins, 2 losses) after losing to Incheon in their record against Incheon.

In this season's AFC group stage, the first place in the five East Asian groups (Groups F-J) will advance to the round of 16, and among the five second-place teams in each group, the three teams with the best performance will advance to the round of 16.

Kim Dong-heon makes a save

Incheon, with Mugosa, Gerso, and Mpoku all excluded from the roster due to injuries and Hernández on the substitute list, appointed Chun Seong-hoon as a central striker and Kim Bo-seop and Park Seung-ho, born in 2003, as both wing strikers.

Incheon gained momentum from the beginning of the game by threatening the opponent's goal with Kim Bo-seop's cross followed by Park Seung-ho's shot, and Hong Si-hoo took the lead in the 11th minute of the first half when Hong Si-hoo scored the first goal in a counterattack.

Kim Bo-seop's cutback from the left side was followed by Cheon Seong-hoon's left-footed volley, but it was blocked by the goalkeeper, and Hong Si-hoo converted the bounced ball into the right penalty area with a right-footed volley that hit the net.

Incheon firmly defended the goal with Kim Dong-heon showing off Yokohama Iuber's header with his hand in the 7th minute of the first half, and blocking Kota Mizunuma's left-footed shot with his toe in the 36th minute of the first half.

Two minutes later, Yoshio Gaina's sharp left-footed free kick hit the crossbar and hit the chest.

Incheon's calculation to score an additional point by inserting Hernández in the 8th minute of the second half was correct.

In the 22nd minute of the second half, when Kim Bo-seop passed from the right penalty area to the front of the goal, Hernández struck the corner of the goal with his left foot.

Yokohama made up one point with Iuber's header from a corner kick in the 38th minute of the second half, but Incheon did not allow any more goals.

Meanwhile, Yokohama Nam Tae-hee entered the field in the 19th minute of the second half and played until the end of the game. 카지노사이트
