Seongnam FC 3:2 Cheonan City FC: K League 2 Match Result

Match report

Sonam beat Cheonan City 3-2 in the K-League 2 regular season on Saturday, a result that kept the hosts in tenth place while the visitors slipped further down the table. The match ended with a late goal that felt like relief rather than triumph.

And here's the thing about Sonam's opening goal — A. Toungara struck at the sixth minute, a clean finish that set the tone. Cheonan City responded through a penalty conversion by Lee Jeong-Bin at the twelfth, but then came the own goal from Choi Jun-Hyeok just before half-time. The visitors had led at the break, but Sonam's second-half goal from Kwon Yong-seung at the fifty-eighth minute shifted the balance. By then Cheonan City were chasing.

The finish came at the ninety-third minute when Yang Tae-yang scored, a goal that put the game to bed early enough for Sonam to catch their breath. The match saw plenty of substitutions — seven in total — suggesting both managers were looking for edges, though the late goal was all that mattered.

Sonam dominated the statistics: 215 attacks to Cheonan City's 148, possession at 57 per cent to 43. They registered ten shots on target with a fifty per cent accuracy rate, while the visitors managed five shots on target at thirty-one per cent. The disconnect between volume and outcome was clear — many chances went begging for both sides.

The result leaves Sonam on thirty points from twenty-three games, seven wins and nine draws. Cheonan City sit fourteenth with twenty-two points from twenty-four matches, ten defeats weighing on them. The gap between them remains eight points, and neither side has much room for error now.
