Gwangju beat Vissel Kobe (Japan) 3-0 in the second round of the AFC Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) round of 16 at 7 p.m. on the 12th at Gwangju World Cup Stadium.

After losing 0-2 in the first match, Gwangju ended up upsetting the result after extra time in the second match held at its home ground. Park Jung-in (25) scored the first goal and Asani (25) scored multiple goals, creating a miracle.

Ju Se-jong was substituted in the 33rd minute of the second half when he desperately needed one goal. Gwangju won a great victory by scoring two goals in a row after Ju Se-jong stepped on the ground.

After the game, Joo Se-jong met with reporters at the mixed zone and said, "The coach wanted me to lead the team as a senior," adding, "I felt that I could bring results from the first half. If I had gone to the penalty shootout, I would have tried to play as the No. 1 kicker. Looking at the atmosphere, I think I can finish in overtime."

Ju Se-jong, who ended his contract with Daejeon Hana Citizen, will wear the Gwangju uniform on the 28th. Although he did not have enough time to melt into the team, he is quickly adapting to the Gwangju midfield like a veteran player. Ju Se-jong, who played in the two matches against Kobe, said, "Gwangju lost the first round of the round of 16 with Kobe and last year's face-off. Coach Lee Jung-hyo (50) said he really wanted to win. In fact, the team atmosphere was heavy before the game," adding, "The results came out so well as we prepared. I think the players were able to grow with today's victory."
He is a man of miracles. Ju Se-jong helped Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur) score a dramatic additional goal with a long kick in the final group match against Germany at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. "Actually, I thought a lot about whether to talk about the Russia World Cup to the players even before the match," Ju Se-jong said after making the dramatic advance to the quarterfinals right after his transfer to Gwangju. "The situation was different. The gap between Korea and Germany was wide, but Gwangju and Kobe were not. I just believed that if the players overcome it, they will have a great experience that cannot be exchanged for money." 토토사이트

Having advanced to the quarterfinals, Gwangju now has an opportunity to play against strong Western Asian players. Al-Nasr of Cristiano Ronaldo (40), Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli of Saudi Arabia, and Al-Sad of Qatar survived the match. "It is an opportunity to meet world-class players. It is also an opportunity to promote Gwangju to Asia," Ju Se-jong said. "Whatever team I meet, I will do as I usually prepare. I want to go higher."
