Outstanding performance
Anyang•GoalkeeperAnyang rode two clinical moments to snatch a home win despite being comprehensively outplayed on the ball, with Ulsan racking up 85 dangerous attacks and 17 shots to Anyang's 43 and 11 respectively. Matheus Oliveira opened the scoring against the run of play in the 27th minute, finishing off a Branislav Knezevic assist, before Lee Dong-Gyeong leveled things early in the second half with Yago Cariello turning provider. The game swung decisively when Breno Almeida converted from the penalty spot in the 61st minute, and Anyang's defense - aided by five saves - held firm through a frantic final half hour that saw ten substitutions and six yellow cards. Cariello, so influential in the build-up for Ulsan's goal, endured a night of mixed fortunes, ultimately seeing his stoppage-time penalty saved to seal Anyang's win and deny Ulsan a share of the points that their dominance arguably deserved.
