Yongin beat Kimhoe 0:3 in the K-League 2 Regular Season on 30 August 2026, extending their away confidence while Kimhoe's poor run continued. The visitors took control early and never looked back after a disciplinary setback for the hosts. Vitinho opened the scoring at seven minutes and added another a minute later, putting Yongin ahead before the quarter-hour mark.
Kimhoe's troubles deepened when Sung Ho-Yeung collected a second yellow at 21 minutes and was sent off. By then Yongin had already doubled their advantage through Suk Hyun-Jun, who scored at 23 and 24 minutes. Kim Han-Seo followed with two quick goals at 25 and 26 minutes, leaving the hosts chasing shadows.
And here's the thing — Yongin could have added more. Choi Chi-Ung's goal at 65 minutes was cancelled by VAR, but he found the net again at 66 minutes to make it four in the second half. The visitors were in control of the tie and managed the game with composure.
The statistics tell a story of efficiency over volume. Kimhoe had 51 per cent possession and 88 attacks, but only four shots on target from 13 attempts. Yongin converted 67 per cent of their shots on target, with eight on target from 11 attempts. To be fair, Kimhoe's red card changed the shape of the match entirely.
Kimhoe sit 17th with 12 points from 22 games, while Yongin are 11th on 25 points. The hosts have lost 14 of their 22 matches and picked up one point from their last five games. Yongin's away form has been steadier, though they lost 1:2 to Asan Mu-Geunghwa last time out.
The result leaves Kimhoe five points from safety with eight games remaining. Yongin move closer to mid-table comfort and away from the relegation battle altogether. By then, the gap should feel meaningful rather than mathematical.
