Suwon Samsung’s concern, which drew all the playoff scenarios, is the injury to the team.
Mulich and Kim Ji-ho were ruled out for the season on the offensive side. Veteran midfielder Kim Bo-kyung is also groaning due to injuries.
Suwon, which has garnered as many points as possible at the end of the season by winning dramatic come-from-behind wins in the last two games in a row, is waiting for the result of the final match. The final ranking will be determined by the result of the final regular round match between the Jeonnam Dragons (54 points) and Busan I’Park (53 points), which are chasing Suwon with one more game than Suwon (56 points).
This is because K League 2 has 13 clubs and an odd number of clubs. Suwon completed its regular season schedule before 12 other clubs.
There are three major cases in front of Suwon.
▲If both South Jeolla Province and Busan fail to win the final match, Suwon will advance to the playoffs in fourth place. ▲If only one of the two teams wins, it must play a semi-playoff as fifth place. As Suwon falls behind Busan (52 goals) in the score record (46 goals), it will fall behind Busan even if the team ties the score with Busan (52 goals). ▲In the worst case scenario, both South Jeolla Province and Busan will win, when Suwon falls to sixth, failing to advance to the playoffs.
There is hope. On the contrary, Suwon’s chances of advancing to the playoffs are not so low that it is strange not to prepare for the playoffs. Coach Byun Sung-hwan and the Suwon club have already drawn up the playoff scenario.
After the match against the Ansan Greeners, Byun said, “I will reorganize my team through rest and training before leaving the mini-camp.” Suwon’s first-team squad will take a break, have dinner to boost the mood, and go down to the southern part of the country, where the weather is nice, to have a mini-camp schedule in preparation for the playoffs.
According to the Suwon club, it has been confirmed that Suwon will use Yongin Mir Stadium until the playoff schedule. As long as Suwon makes it to the playoff, it will be able to play at home in Yongin.
However, even if they advance to the playoffs, they have concerns. That is the injury of the main players.
Suwon lost its foreign striker Mulich, who was the main catcher this season, by scoring 10 goals in the league in the game against Ansan, the final match of the league. Mulich suffered a severe ankle injury during the second half due to rough tackle by Ansan defender Jang Yoo-seop. Just looking at the scene, Mulich was expected to suffer a terrible injury.
The bad prediction was not missed. Mulich was banned from playing for four weeks due to partial rupture of both internal and external ligaments in his ankle. He reportedly received a cast immediately. In fact, he is out of the season. Although Kim Hyun has returned, Mulich’s departure is expected to be significant as he is not physically fit enough to play full-time. 메이저놀이터
In addition to Mulich, Kim Ji-ho, who was brought in by Coach Byun Sung-hwan during the additional registration period in the summer, was also out for the season. Kim Ji-ho’s first season as a professional player, who showed a consistent sense of goal after joining Suwon, ended in the same way as Byeon’s new persona.
