Busan vs Bucheon Match Analysis
July 6, K League 2: Busan IPark vs Bucheon FC 1995 - Match, Asia Football and Sports Analysis
● Busan (9th in South Korea 2nd division / LLDLD)
Overall, it seems Busan struggles at home. The problem is apparent when the opponent locks down and counterattacks, which exposes a weakness. Coach Park Jin-seop's concern regarding strikers has deepened. Eventually, Lopez, who was amidst a scoreless streak, had his contract terminated. Especially, Busan often concedes on the flanks during counterattacks, so if their offense doesn't improve, they are easily outplayed.
Absentees
Kim Chan (FW / Grade A)
● Bucheon (8th in South Korea 2nd division / DLDWL)
Bucheon generally fares better on the road. They, too, heavily rely on the skills of foreign players and aren't regarded as a team with strong offensive power or ball possession. However, as shown in the Korea Cup against Gwangju, who explicitly declared counterattacks, Bucheon can adopt a pragmatic approach when necessary. They might adopt a more cautious strategy during away games against Busan, unlike their aggressive approach during home matches where they were caught off-guard.
Absentees
Seo Myeong-gwan (CB / Grade A), Choi Jae-young (MF / Grade A), Jung Hee-woong (MF / Grade A), Ahn Jae-jun (FW / Grade A), Lee Young-min (Coach)
