It was a valuable win for Suwon FC. It snapped an eight-match winless streak (two draws and six losses) against their rivals and boosted their momentum. The gap between them and 11th-ranked Suwon Samseong, which had narrowed to two points, was extended to five points.

Speaking at the post-match press conference, Lee said, “I’m glad we won the ‘Suwon Derby’ at a crucial time. It was an important game and the players prepared well. I’m happy that our hard work paid off,” he said.

When asked about his goal, he once again emphasized the team’s effort. “I was more concerned about the team’s poor performance than the goal. I’m happy that the hard work of all the players and coaching staff, not just me, paid off. We will prepare well for the remaining matches.”

Lee Seung-woo dropped to a lower position than usual on the day, receiving passes and participating in the defense. When asked about his role, he said, “It’s an unfamiliar position. It’s a position I’ve never played before, so it’s hard. But the team’s performance is not at a point where I can do what I want to do. There are certain things that the coach asks me to do. He asks me to receive passes from up and down the field and to coordinate with Ras, Kim, and the flankers. I tried to fulfill his instructions. I think it came out well, so I feel good.”

When asked about how the team came together during a difficult time, Lee mentioned the absence of Park Joo-ho, who retired in June. “He was the center of the team and played a big role off the field, not to mention on the field. There was a lot of concern within the squad about whether and how we could fill the void of Joo-ho’s brother, and we tried to work hard together around (Lee) Yong-yong and coach Lee Jung-soo, who came back. I think today’s win will help us get through it. I think we can do even better now.”
