"Lee Seung-woo's advice was great for the goal ceremony."
In a showdown with Daegu FC in the ninth round of Hana Bank's K League 1 2025, held at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on Sunday, the team won 3-1 by adding multiple goals by Jeon Jin-woo and Kompanyo. Jeonbuk, which scored three goals in the first half alone, ranked third with 15 points (four wins, three draws and two losses) from nine matches. On the other hand, Daegu allowed three goals in the first half alone, falling into a swamp of seven consecutive seasons.
Including this match, Jeonbuk has made steady progress since the A-match in March, proving that it has changed this season. It won 1-0 against FC Anyang, 2-0 against the leading opponent, and then 1-1 draw against Jeju at home. In the third round of the FA Cup with Ansan Greeners, who operated the rotation, it won 3-0 after extra time, and also garnered an overwhelming victory against Daegu.
There were several reasons behind Foye Jeonbuk's rise this season. First of all, there was a solid defense. Kim Tae-hyun, Kim Young-bin, Hong Jung-ho and Kim Tae-hwan have succeeded in making clean sheets in three games in the last four games, with the four-back stable composition. On top of that, Park Jin-seop, who played 100 games in Jeonbuk's uniform against Daegu, stabilized the back as a defensive midfielder.
In addition, Jeonbuk has strong troubleshooters. Prior to the match, foreign striker Andrea Kompagno scored four goals and Jeon Jin-woo scored three, making seven of the 10 goals he scored in the league. Jeonbuk has gradually revived its performance as the two players showed off their presence as clear foreign troubleshooter that Jeonbuk had been agonizing over and crack-type winger that can solve by looking for.
On the same day, Jeonbuk scored three goals in the first half against Daegu. Starting with Jeon Jin-woo's first goal in the fifth minute of the first half, Compagno's additional goal in the 17th minute of the first half and Jeon Jin-woo's net goal in the 38th minute of the first half, leading the team 3-0 in the first half alone. Daegu left a regret as Jeong Jae-sang, who was substituted at the beginning of the second half, only scored a comeback goal in the 35th minute of the second half.
Notably, Jeon has displayed overwhelming performance. As he scored five goals in nine matches in the league, he and his teammate Andrea Kompagno (five goals) jointly ranked second in the league. He is not far behind top-ranked Ju Min-gyu (seven goals, Daejeon FC). Until before the season, few people would have expected that Jeon would become the ace of the team.
Jeon Jin-woo, who became a surprise big hit for Jeonbuk, said, "If I win, I was desperate to win because the ranking could rise to third place. I think that's why all the players are united. It's a very happy weekend to win and finish in such a good mood."
With multiple goals, Jeon Jin-woo scored 12 goals and had two assists in 29 matches in Jeonbuk. This is a very fast time to break the record set by Suwon Samsung (11 goals and seven assists in 115 matches). When asked about this, Jeon said with an awkward smile, "I did my best at Suwon and I am doing my best at Jeonbuk. Jeonbuk players are very supportive. It is not because of me but because of Jeonbuk players."
At the match press conference, Foye praised Jeon Jin-woo, saying, "He is showing very good performance. He is the most ideal part of a flanker." Jeon Jin-woo responded, "I didn't tell you directly, but the coach told me what he needed to be a flanker. And I think he thinks it's a good evaluation as I try to live up to that."
Jeon Jin-woo is showing such good form, but he is not in good condition. He is playing with injuries in many ways including a cast on his finger. Despite this, Jeon Jin-woo showed a mature attitude by saying, "It is an excuse to talk about an injury. No excuses work at the stadium. Other players are the same, so I have to overcome it." 스포츠토토
Another topic of conversation for Jeon, who has been showing good performance recently, is goal ceremony. He is attracting tremendous attention due to his splendid ceremonies that have changed from before. "Actually, (Lee) Seung-woo advised me to think in various ways that the ceremony is too flat. After hearing that, I honestly think there are many players who score goals in the K-League, but none of them have good ceremonies," he said.
"So I'm thinking about the ceremony so that fans can enjoy it even a little bit. If fans want to, I'll show various ceremonies," he said. "Seung-woo helps me a lot. I'll continue to try to show good performances."
