Pohang Steelers accepted another "defeat."

Pohang lost to Johor Darlle Takjim of Malaysia 2-5 in the eighth game of the 2024-2025 Asian Champions League (ACLE) league stage at Johor Sultan Ibrahim Stadium in Malaysia on the 18th (Korea time). Pohang, which finished the league stage with three wins and five losses (9 points), failed to advance to the round of 16.

Pohang led with Lee Ho-jae's first goal in the 27th minute of the first half, but conceded the equalizer in 10 minutes. In the second half, a series of mistakes came out and four goals were conceded. Kang Hyun-je's additional goal was scored in the 35th minute of the second half, but it was not enough to reverse the game.

After the game, Park was the first to speak about the fireworks he had stayed at the hotel the night before. "Many players had difficulty taking a rest because fireworks exploded all night near our team's lodging. Of course, this cannot be an excuse for the outcome of the game," he stressed.

"We are playing three consecutive games every three to four days as we move to Malaysia with difficulty. In the midst of this, I don't think anything that hasn't been fair outside the field should happen. I tried to bring good results, but I was disappointed in the physical aspect that I was worried about. I lost the game because I missed decisive opportunities to score more."

Pohang has made several mistakes by its defenders and goalkeepers. Eventually, it led to a loss and the atmosphere was down. Coach Park said, "I expected the opponent to put strong pressure on me at home. I think there is a loss in the part where we could not continue the flow of the game due to various mistakes. The players did their best until the end." 메이저놀이터

Pohang has allowed a total of 12 goals in the three games it played this season. "The defense should be prepared by all players in the field. I had a good chance when I was leading 1-0, but I think I lost focus after I missed it. One of the defenders did not play for a long time due to injury, which may have caused some systematic problems. I think it will be supplemented in the future," Park said.
