Ahead of the Gimcheon and Ulsan games, the league's 'losses' are on alert... A special locker room talk after the game

Kimcheon Sangmu, who is about to face Ulsan HD, is in an "emergency" after losing consecutive league games.

Gimcheon, led by head coach Chung Jung-yong, lost 0-2 in the ninth round of Hana Bank K League 1 2025 against Daejeon Hana Citizen at 4:30 p.m. on the 19th at Gimcheon Sports Complex. Gimcheon lost to Kim Joon-beom in the 31st minute of the first half, and suffered a loss in the 9th minute of the second half, along with the numerical inferiority caused by Yoo Kang-hyun's exit.

Gimcheon was particularly unlucky, and suffered consecutive losses following eight rounds due to disappointing exits. The loss was regrettable as it was ahead of a home showdown with Ulsan, which is competing for second place eight days later.

Now is the time for stronger mental armament. After the game ended, coach Chung placed the team in the locker room and gave a long speech. It was a locker room talk to move on to the next game while looking back on the Daejeon match.

Coach Chung's speech did not stop until the opposing team left the stadium and the inside and outside of the stadium were almost completed.

There was no loud noise in the hallway and locker room leading to the stadium, with a thin door in between. The coach's gentle push sometimes has a more terrifying effect than a shout.

Chung's talk seemed to have ended at 7:40 p.m., an hour and 10 minutes after the game ended. Excluding the players' shower time and Chung's attendance at the press conference, the talk apparently lasted at least 30 minutes. Rumors have it that the talk lasted for another 10 minutes due to comments by his head coach and others. 스포츠토토

At a press conference after the game, Chung vowed to improve the team, saying, "We will have time to reflect on the process." Attention is focusing on whether Gimcheon will be able to welcome Ulsan with a different appearance.
