“Young-gwon Kim got Ulsan off to a flying start, converting from a corner to put the hosts in front with a composed finish that set the early tone.”
Pivotal“In a devastating moment for Ulsan, Young-gwon Kim turned the ball into his own net, handing Gangwon a 2-1 lead just two minutes before half-time after the visitors had grown into the game through a series of corners.”
Pivotal“Ulsan responded well to their half-time deficit, with Seung-hyun Jung restoring parity nine minutes into the second half to make it 2-2 and set up a tense final third.”
Pivotal“Gangwon's triple substitution on 81 minutes paid immediate dividends as Dong-hyeon Kim, on the pitch for barely sixty seconds, fired home the winner to put Gangwon 3-2 up and ultimately seal the three points.”

Outstanding performance
Ulsan HD•DefenderGangwon came from behind twice to claim a 3-2 victory at Ulsan, with the decisive moment arriving in extraordinary fashion when substitute Dong-hyeon Kim netted within a minute of coming on in the 81st minute. Ulsan had started brightly, Young-gwon Kim heading them in front from a corner in the 15th minute, but Gangwon's Jesse Sekidika levelled before the half-hour mark and the hosts then suffered the cruelest of blows when the same Young-gwon Kim turned the ball into his own net on 43 minutes. Ulsan rallied immediately after the break through Seung-hyun Jung's equaliser on 55 minutes, and both sides pushed for a winner in an evenly contested second half — Ulsan edged possession at 52-48 and both keepers made six on-target saves each, underlining how tight the contest was. Gangwon's triple substitution on 81 minutes proved the decisive masterstroke, with Kim Dong Hyun needing just sixty seconds to convert and send the away side home with a result that keeps pressure on the teams above them while leaving Ulsan to rue a nightmare afternoon from one of their own players.
