"We held out well in the first half. If only the results follow..."
said Kim Eun-jung, the head coach of Suwon FC.
Suwon FC played to a 1-1 draw against FC Seoul in the 15th round of the Hana Bank K League 1 2025 at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 24th. With 3 wins, 6 draws, and 6 losses, they remained in 10th place with 15 points.
Kim Eun-jung said after the match, "I thank the home fans who supported the players from Suwon to Sangam. Thanks to your support, we secured a valuable point on the road. I want to express my gratitude to the players for working hard without giving up. We will prepare well to win the next home game."
He added, "I thought our players would hold out well until the first half. There were parts that didn't go as well as we prepared. Therefore, I substituted Anderson at the end of the first half earlier than planned."
Suwon FC avoided defeat this time after a 3-0 victory against Daejeon Hana Citizen in their previous match. Kim Eun-jung said, "Even though we showed good performance in previous matches, there were times when the results did not follow. However, the reason I remained positive about our players was that we were improving in terms of our performance. If we can get good results moving forward, I believe we can gain strength and move forward."
As the summer transfer window approaches, stories of Anderson's departure have emerged.
Kim Eun-jung explained, "It is true that such a time is approaching. I cannot deny it. It is also true that it is not easy to find his replacement. We do not have the financial flexibility either. If he leaves, we will find a suitable player for that position. However, it will be impossible for any player to replace him completely."
Finally, he added, "We need to score in decisive chances to climb higher in the standings."
