Seoul soon counterattacked. Two minutes later, Choi Jun penetrated to the left side of the penalty box, made a short pass to the center, and Clemla shot after controlling the ball, but it was blocked by the defense.

Both teams used their substitution cards all at once in the early to mid-second half to make decisive moves. In the 14th minute of the second half, Anyang brought on Elkurano, Choi Geon-ju, and Kim Kang simultaneously. Seoul also introduced Moon Seon-min and Anderson.

One minute later, Anyang also missed its chance. Lee Tae-hee delivered a low cross into the penalty area, and Choi Geon-ju rushed in to connect with a non-stop shot, but the ball ignored the goal.

Anyang faced a variable of being sent off late in the second half, turning the match into a 10-vs-10 showdown. In the 35th minute of the second half, 2007-born Kim Kang was sent off after provoking Seoul supporters following a physical challenge with Choi Jun.

Both teams exchanged attacks several times until 9 minutes of added time, but no winning goal was scored, and the match ended 0-0.
