Professional football K League 2 team Chungbuk Cheongju achieved its first three-game winning streak of the season.

On the 9th, in a home match against Seongnam FC at the Hana Bank K League 2 2026 Round 28 held at Cheongju Comprehensive Stadium, Chungbuk Cheongju won 3-1.

With this victory, Chungbuk Cheongju secured its third consecutive win after defeating Chungnam Asan 1-0 last month and beating Ansan Greeners (3-2 win) and Seongnam in succession. It is the team's first three-game winning streak of this season.

Chungbuk Cheongju now stands with a record of 6 wins, 14 draws, and 7 losses (32 points). Although they had an unusually high number of draws previously, they have successfully escaped the lower ranks by riding their recent upward momentum. They are now in a position to aim for the upper-middle tier as well. The gap with 7th-place Gimpo FC (35 points) is not large.

Chungbuk Cheongju took the lead with an early goal from Jung Jin-woo in the 29th minute of the first half. Jung calmly finished a low cross delivered by Vandeira from the right flank.

Vandeira, who assisted on the opening goal, recorded his ninth assist of the season, setting a new club record for the most assists in a single season.

Portuguese defender Vandeira has been contributing to the team with not only stable defense but also active offensive involvement since donning the Chungbuk Cheongju jersey this season.

Although Chungbuk Cheongju conceded an equalizer to Seongnam's Lee Jung-bin in the 13th minute of the second half, they quickly regained momentum.

In the 24th minute of the second half, veteran midfielder Baek Seong-dong restored the team's lead. He controlled the ball after it was cleared by the opposing goalkeeper and pushed it into the net from in front of the goal to make it 2-1.

In the 40th minute of the second half, foreign attacker Garcia sealed the victory. He connected with a powerful header at a high point from a cross delivered by Baek Seong-dong from the right flank. Seongnam goalkeeper Lee Gwang-yeon threw his body to make the save but could not stop it.

Colombian attacker Garcia scored his 14th goal of the season, breaking the club's single-season scoring record as well. Simultaneously, he moved into sole possession of the top spot in the K League 2 scoring chart.

It was a pleasant day for Chungbuk Cheongju, which achieved its first three-game winning streak of the season and saw both Vandeira's assists and Garcia's goals set new club records side by side.
