FC Seoul won a big victory in its home opener thanks to the performance of Son Jeong-beom (22), a former "Star Grand Prize."

Seoul won 5-0 in the fifth round of the "Hana Bank K League 1 2026" home game against Gwangju FC at 2 p.m. on the 22nd at Seoul World Cup Stadium.

Seoul, which has won four consecutive league games (12 points) since the opening of the league, has overtaken Ulsan HD to take the lead. It is the first four-game winning streak since its foundation in 1983. Gwangju, which suffered its first loss in the league, ranked fifth with six points (1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss).

The home team Seoul went 4-4-2. Song Min-gyu, Babets, Son Jung-beom, and Jung Seung-won were in the second line, starting with Andersson and Cho Young-wook as the front-line two-top. Kim Jin-soo, Ross, Yazan, and Choi Jun were in the four backs. Goo Sung-yoon wore goalkeeper gloves.

The away team Gwangju also faced 4-4-2. Fried Jonson and Ahn Hyuk-joo were in charge of the front line, while Park Jung-in and Shin Chang-moo stood on the left and right wings, respectively. The Jungwon was formed by Moon Min-seo and Yoo Je-ho. Four backs were formed by Ha Seung-woon, Gong Bae-hyun, Kim Yong-hyuk, and Kim Jin-hoo. Kim Kyung-min defended the goal.

Seoul recorded the highest number of K-League spectators this season with 24,122 spectators.

Seoul scored the first goal in the 9th minute of the first half with the home team's enthusiastic support. It is Son Jung-beom's K-League debut goal from the "Star Awards" hosted by this newspaper. Babets dropped the cross to the gate with his forehead, and Son Jung-beom shook the net with a header. Son Jung-beom, who assisted Cho Young-wook's winning goal in the previous match against the Pohang Steelers, scored an offensive point for two consecutive games.

Son Jung-beom, who gained momentum, almost raised his help, but it was unfortunately canceled. In the 16th minute of the first half, Song Min-gyu grabbed a cross that Son Jung-beom folded up the defender from the left side and shot it to shake the net. However, as a result of VAR, the goal was canceled because Song Min-gyu judged that he had a pushing foul on the defender while controlling the ball.

Gwangju also fought back for the first time in a long time and hit its first shot. In the 35th minute of the first half, Yoo Je-ho hit the ball that Ahn Hyuk-joon gave after shaking the right side hard with his left foot from the arc circle, but it went over the goal.

He drove in at the end of the first half. After 42 minutes in the first half, Shin Chang-moo's shot hit Son Jung-beom's back and was out. Three minutes later, goalkeeper Koo Sung-yoon hit Fried Jonsson's sharp header with his fingertips. The first half ended with Seoul leading 1-0.

In the first minute of the second half, Seoul shook the net. Klimala, who replaced Jung Seung-won's elaborate cross from the right side, pushed it with his left foot. This is Klimala's first goal in the league this season.

Seoul's offensive continued. In the 14th minute of the second half, Ross' third goal was scored on his back. Ross tried to header a free kick from Kim Jin-soo's left side by competing with the defender. The ball hit Ross in the back and went into the goal.

Seoul scored the fourth goal. Klimala's multi-goal was scored. In the 27th minute of the second half, Klimala, who dug into the box from the left side, scored through the crotch of the goalkeeper by laying it low in the absence of an angle.

Seoul sealed the victory. In the 37th minute of the second half, Lee Seung-mo jumped and pushed the ball from the right side of Moon Sun-min with his left foot. The game ended with a 5-0 complete victory for Seoul.
