It’s already been 10 years. Seoul E-Land, which is seeking promotion for the first time in 10 years since its foundation in 2014, has had the best chance.
The K-League 2 ranking has been decided. E-Land posted 17 wins, seven draws and 12 losses (58 points) this year to rank third, the highest in the club’s history. Its 17 wins are tied for the most wins by a team in a single season, which was recorded in 2016. E-Land has also made it to the playoffs for the first time in nine years since 2015.
Only the playoffs are left. E-Land will play the semi-playoff winners of the Jeonnam Dragons and the Busan I-Park Championship at home on Monday. E-Land, the top team in the regular league, is advancing to the playoffs just by garnering a draw. This year, South Jeolla Province ranked fourth in the K-League 2 and Busan fifth. The match will be decided in a single round.
If E-Land wins the match, it will play against the 10th-ranked team in the K League. It will face Jeonbuk Hyundai or Daegu FC.
E-Land has some variables ahead of its important schedule. E-Land fans are rooting for E-Land. E-Land has attracted 72,093 spectators this year, surpassing 70,000 for the first time in a single season. The average attendance is 4005, which is the first time this season that the average attendance has exceeded 4,000 for a single season.
A total of 7,913 spectators entered on the 9th, the last home game. It was the third-highest attendance record this season. The E-Land team also thanked its fans after the game. 메이저사이트
Now that the playoffs are more important, the cheering heat of E-Land fans will heat the ground even more.
This year, E-Land made a storm of recruitment. Veteran Osmar, Kim Oh-kyu, Kim Young-wook, Jung Jae-yong, and Bruno Silva were all brought in. In its 10th year, E-Land also appointed Kim Do-kyun, a coach with experience in promotion. The recruitment effect has been successful. E-Land has scored 62 goals this year to rank No. 1 in the K-League 2 in total. The team also ranked first in the league with a gain-loss margin of +17.
Now, the goal of “promotion” is just around the corner. “We ranked third this year, but I think the entire team needs to study and learn a lot,” coach Kim Do-kyun said through the club. “I thought I should continue to develop myself, and I will prepare well for the playoffs with a stronger mentality.”
