Why did Lee Han-sam, a defender of Cheongju in North Chungcheong Province, collide with Bucheon FC supporters after the game? All the three parties, including the game supervisor, Bucheon and Cheongju, claim different things.
Bucheon FC 1995 drew 0-0 at home against Chungcheongbuk-do Cheongju FC in the 34th round of Hana Bank K League 2 2024 at Bucheon Stadium in Gyeonggi-do at 7 p.m. on the 5th.
Immediately after the match, away team Cheongju defender Lee Han-sam collided with Bucheon supporters. Lee Han-sam was very excited to hear something from Bucheon supporters, and the team rushed to block him. Nevertheless, Lee Han-sam couldn’t hold back his excitement, and Bucheon supporters also came to the end of the stands and engaged in a war of words with Lee Han-sam.
Then, why did this happen? “It seems that Bucheon supporters cursed at Lee Han-sam when he returned from greeting goalkeeper Kim Hyung-geun in Bucheon after the game ended. Lee Han-sam reportedly couldn’t contain his excitement and turned around to respond together. The Bucheon supporters reportedly threw ice at him,” said Koo Sang-beom, a match supervisor.
When asked if Lee Han-sam would be disciplined, he said, “I went to the scene to find out the ice, but it was already removed.” He declined to say, “I should report it to the professional soccer federation.”
Cheongju explained similarly. “In the process of raising his fallen teammate Jeong Jin-wook up, Bucheon supporters cursed at Lee Han-sam. Lee Han-sam told him to stop, but as he kept cursing, he got into an argument with Bucheon supporters,” he said.
He also said, “The ice thrown by the Bucheon supporters was hit by the Cheongju team and the secretariat staff,” adding, “The K-League was noisy due to Incheon United’s water bottle throwing incident, but there was a scene that should not have come out again on this day. I think we need to take active measures to prevent this from happening again.” 토토사이트
On the other hand, Bucheon took a different stance. “Lee Han-sam first provoked Bucheon supporters by drinking water and staring at them. When the supporters asked him to keep the game clean, just go back, and Lee Han-sam pointed a finger and swore at each other, leading to an argument,” the Bucheon team said. “In the process, Bucheon supporters were so excited that they waved their arms hard that the ice fell and they had no intention of throwing it.”
What is clear is that after the game, the ball was thrown and the supporters came into the stadium, creating a dangerous situation. With all three parties in different positions, it remains to be seen how the professional soccer federation will judge and what will happen if disciplinary action is taken.
