K League 2 | May 10, 2026

Yongin FC snatched a dramatic 2–1 away victory against Ansan Greeners FC at Ansan Wa~ Stadium, climbing into the playoff spots in K League 2. The win was Yongin’s third in four matches, while Ansan slipped to their fourth defeat in five outings, deepening their relegation fears.

Match Story

Ansan started brightly and took a deserved lead in the 22nd minute. A quick free-kick caught the Yongin defense off guard, and Lee Seung-woo curled a beautiful shot into the top corner from the edge of the box. The home side seemed in control until just before halftime, when a rash challenge in the box gave Yongin a penalty. Kim Dae-won stepped up and calmly sent the goalkeeper the wrong way to level the scores at 1–1.

Second Half Drama

The second half was a scrappy affair, with both teams committing fouls and struggling to create clear chances. The turning point came in the 78th minute when Ansan’s midfielder, Park Jun-hee, received a second yellow card for a late tackle, reducing the hosts to ten men.

Yongin immediately pressed their numerical advantage. In the 85th minute, substitute Jo Gwang-min collected a pass on the edge of the area, shifted the ball onto his right foot, and unleashed a low drive that beat the goalkeeper at his near post. Ansan desperately pushed for an equalizer but could not find a way through, as Yongin held on for a vital three points.

You cannot win matches like that.”
