In their last match, 5th placed Gangwon, recorded a 0-1 loss against Jeonbuk Motors. Ku Ja-Ryoung struck first for Jeonbuk Motors in the 26th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Gangwon was frustrated by Jeonbuk Motors’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Jeonbuk Motors ended the match with the shutout victory. Gangwon is looking for direction having earned 16 points in their last 10 matches, while ulsan sits at 1st place in the tables.
