Seoul E-Land and Yongin FC traded one goal each in extra time and drew after a fierce battle.

Seoul E-Land and Yongin drew 2-2 in the 12th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 2 2026' held at Mokdong Stadium on the 16th.

Both teams shared one point each. Seoul E-Land maintained third place with 20 points (6 wins, 2 draws, 4 losses). Yongin also remained in 14th place with 10 points (2 wins, 4 draws, 5 losses), with no change in ranking.

The home team Seoul E-Land deployed a 3-4-3 formation. The front three consisted of Kim Hyun, Kang Hyun-je, and Euler. The second line featured Son Hyuk-chan, Seo Jin-seok, Park Chang-hwan, and Oh In-pyo. The back three were formed by Park Jae-hwan, Kim Oh-gyu, and Baek Ji-ung. Goalkeeper gloves were worn by Min Seong-jun.

The visiting team Yongin also lined up in a 3-4-3 formation. Leading the front line was Choi Chi-woong, with Lee Seung-jun and Gabriel on the left and right flanks respectively. The midfield was composed of Shin Jin-ho and Choi Young-jun, with Kim Han-gil and Cha Seung-hyun deployed as left and right fullbacks respectively. The back three consisted of Im Chae-min, Kwak Yun-ho, and Kim Hyun-jun. The goal was guarded by Nobo.

Seoul E-Land recorded the first shot of the match in the 5th minute of the first half. Oh In-pyo's misplaced kick from outside the penalty box flowed to Kim Oh-gyu. Kim Oh-gyu then passed the ball backward, and Son Hyuk-chan immediately connected with a long-range shot, but it went far wide of the goal.

Although Seoul E-Land controlled possession and dictated the flow, Yongin's counterattack succeeded. In the 12th minute of the first half, Shin Jin-ho connected with a left-footed volley from a corner kick delivered from the right, and Choi Chi-woong deftly touched the ball in front of the goal to shake the net.

After conceding, Seoul E-Land continued to increase possession and looked for opportunities. In the 19th minute of the first half, Kang Hyun-je shot from the center of the box after a pass from Kim Hyun and Lee Dae-il, but goalkeeper Nobo saved it.

Similar patterns continued until the end of the first half. In the 39th minute, Euler headed a ball delivered by Son Hyuk-chan into the box but missed by a hair. Two minutes later, Euler attempted another header but it went slightly over the crossbar.

Seoul E-Land immediately substituted defender Park Jae-hwan for striker Park Jae-yong at the start of the second half to strengthen their attack. Yongin replaced Lee Seung-jun with Kim Bo-seop.

Seoul E-Land pressed hard from the early stages of the second half. In the 11th minute, Euler's cross into the box was headed by Park Jae-yong, but the ball went too high, and goalkeeper Bono saved it.

Three minutes later, Seoul E-Land built up play perfectly from the back and took a shot, but it did not result in a goal. Through a passing sequence starting from the back involving Euler, Kim Hyun, and Park Chang-hwan, Son Hyuk-chan received the ball on the left side of the box. Son Hyuk-chan then shook off the defense and struck a powerful shot, but goalkeeper Nobo blocked it squarely.

The relentless Seoul E-Land finally equalized. In the 22nd minute, Park Chang-hwan saw Euler penetrating into the box and made a heel pass. Euler then shook off the defense and struck with his left foot; the ball deflected off a Yongin defender and went into the goal. This was Euler's second goal of the season.

Euler's foot continued to threaten the goal after scoring. In the 33rd minute of the second half, during a corner kick situation, he trapped the ball with his chest and shot with his left foot, but it went slightly wide to the right of the goal.

Yongin also introduced 'target man' Seok Hyun-jun in the 33rd minute of the second half to make a decisive move. Seoul E-Land continued to dominate the match until the final stages. Coach Kim Do-gyun made a final substitution in the 39th minute of the second half, bringing on Karius for Ideil.

In the final stages of the match, Seoul E-Land shook the net, but the goal was disallowed due to a handball foul by Park Jae-yong. In the 43rd minute, Park Jae-yong and goalkeeper Nobo contested a ball delivered by Euler into the box. The ball then hit the fallen Park Jae-yong and went into the goal, but after video assistant referee (VAR) review, it was not awarded as a goal.

Yongin scored a go-ahead goal in extra time. Seok Hyun-jun leaped high to head a ball delivered by Kim Bo-seop into the box, shaking the net.

However, Seoul E-Land's equalizer came through. In the 8th minute of extra time, during a corner kick situation, Euler headed the ball down, and Baek Ji-ung headed it into the goal.

The intense match ended in a 2-2 draw.
