The head coach, who was in the middle of the opening five games, left an unusual rebuke.

Yongin FC lost 0-1 at home against Suwon Samsung in the fifth round of Hana Bank's K League 2 2026 at Mir Stadium in Yongin on the 28th.

It is a long swamp of victory. The new team Yongin has postponed its first win for the fifth game (two draws and three losses) since the opening.

Yongin, who allowed Suwon Samsung Peshin to score the first goal in the fourth minute of the first half, finally collapsed without scoring a single goal. It has been scoreless for two consecutive games since the match against Hwaseong FC (0-0 draw) in the last round.

Coach Choi Yoon-kyum said at a press conference after the game, "As I said before the game, I worked hard on tactics and physical training throughout the winter training, but after the match against Suwon, I didn't prepare much. I blamed myself and felt lacking."

On this day, Yongin replaced three players, including Lopez, at the same time in the 16th minute of the second half as the attack did not go away. However, in the 28th minute of the second half, Yoo Dong-kyu's decisive shot was blocked by the goalkeeper's defense, and it was silent. Coach Choi Yoon-kyum said, "I had a lot of defenders, but I lost a point. "Whether the goalkeeper covers or the defense should have competed to keep it," he said. "It seems that the difficult game continued as the tactics prepared for this loss became urgent."

"I prepared for the opponent's pressure, but the frustrating trend continued. With the team being dragged 0-0 in the second half, he changed to a four-back and ordered a challenging game management, he said. "I've had several chances to score, but I think I still lack the number of finishes and attacks."

He also mentioned the mistakes of veteran players. Manager Choi Yoon-kyum said, "Yongin was not prepared for Suwon's color of challenging play, and Suwon was prepared for the match against Yongin," adding, "He is blaming himself for his tactical responses." I'm trying to inject and criticize and fix it," he said.

When asked what was needed to break through the blood of his first victory, head coach Choi Yoon-kyum said, "Well," after a long thought, "We have to train harder and defend harder." I often say that I'm sorry that I'm too passive with the players. In the match against Suwon, there was a difference in personal ability and it was exhausting as I tried to press. We have to be more challenging and active to win," he stressed.

"I think they're on a similar level except for a few teams. If we prepare well, I think we can achieve our goal as soon as possible," he added.

He also said he felt sorry for his fans. Yongin is receiving great support, with 10,000 spectators flocking to two home games. Coach Choi Yoon-kyum said, "I think the fans are still holding it in. If it is winless in five consecutive games, it can be reprimanded or booed, but it seems that they are still considering it as a new team. "I'm sorry," he said. "I'm disappointed in both myself and the team. It has to rebound. I don't want this kind of result. You have to prepare strongly mentally and physically and show strong mental strength. The players should also feel it for themselves, he said with strength.

Lopez, who made his debut on the day, gave a cold evaluation. Coach Choi Yoon-kyum said, "He said he was ready for 20-30 minutes, but I don't think he's ready yet. "I don't think you should go on the field when you're not ready," he said. "The attack is also an attack, but we couldn't cover the opponent's wingback's turn when defending."
