Preview: Ansan Greeners vs Jeonnam Dragons

Last Time Out
The Greeners came away from Bucheon with another impressive come-from-behind victory, as Park Iin-seob struck twice, earning himself player of the round in the process. It mirrors the result earlier in the season when Ansan similarly grabbed two goals to take all three points, a replica result worthy of a place in Aiin’s World. Marlon de Jesus struck for Bucheon after just ten minutes, but Park equalised before the break. It looked to be heading for a disappointing draw for the Greeners, before Park struck again two minutes from time to keep Ansan just a point behind fourth placed Asan.Highlights available here.
Jeonnam’s struggles since relegation have had a recent turnaround and this continued with a solid 2-0 victory against fellow strugglers Daejeon. First half goals from Han Chan-hee and Choi Jae-hyeon sewed up the victory early for the Dragons, putting them nine points clear of Citizen and just five points behind the Green Wolves in 6th.
