Osmar shared his feelings about wearing the captain’s armband again.
On the 9th at 7:30 pm 토스카지노at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, Seoul, which had round 12 of the ‘Hana 1 Q K League 1 2023’, defeated Gwangju 3-1. Seoul, which added 3 points, remained in second place alone.
Before the match, Seoul changed its captain from Ilyuchenko to Osmar. Coach Ahn Ik-soo explained that he changed the captaincy at the request of Ilyuchenko. It has been seven years since Osmar wore the captain’s armband.
After the game, Osmar said, “I know the Gwangju style well, so I thought this game would not be easy. So the key point is that the movement in both situations, with and without the ball, seems to have been more important.”
When asked to explain the background of the sudden wearing of the captain’s armband, he said, “I don’t think it was a big change. Even if you weren’t captain, you still have to lead the team. It wasn’t such a big change.” It was Ilyuchenko’s job. Ilyu was a little uncomfortable with the current situation and there was a situation where he was losing his confidence. I talked to the coach about that part, and then after a coaching staff meeting, I decided that I would be suitable as the next captain. I think I gave up. I hope it’s a suitable claim myself. I received a lot of congratulations and it seems that my colleagues like it. I will try to make a good claim.”
“I was surprised when I first heard about it from the coach. It was something I hadn’t thought of at all. I talked about this with Ilyuchenko, of course. I asked why you made that decision in the first place, and Ilyu said that this was the best decision for the team. He replied that he thought. In the current situation, he said that he wanted to focus on recovering his condition rather than contributing to the team. I also agreed and became the captain.”
Osmar said that there was not much change during the game, but he said that he was very proud. “At this age, armbands don’t really mean that much. It’s just talking with the referees and taking pictures. There are not just one or two leaders in our team. (The late) Yohan hyung and Ki Sungyong hyung. I am one of them. “Of course, I’m very proud. When I enter the game, I feel proud to be the first player to represent the team. Especially, I feel very good and proud to be the captain in a situation where many fans are coming in these days. “he explained.
With the victory, Seoul opened up a 3-point gap with Pohang in 3rd place. It is a situation where you can compete with Ulsan for the championship. Regarding this, “I want to focus on winning the next game against Ulsan right away rather than winning. The bad thing in the past few years is because we went too far ahead in that way,” he said. The players have been talking a lot lately. I’m thinking of not getting ahead of myself and playing one game at a time, such as the next game and the next game after that. Maybe that’s the difference from this season. That’s why this team has become a little stronger.” He expressed his intention to focus on the Ulsan game.
Seoul surpassed 30,000 average spectators in the last game. Coach Ahn also said that he made the players aware of this. Osmar also said, “I definitely feel it at the stadium. As the largest city and the most populous city, there are parts that I feel proud of and proud of. I also want to express my gratitude,” he said.
Osmar said, “If there’s one thing that’s for sure, a large crowd definitely helps us. When you have 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 players, from the moment they go on the field, it’s not a 50/50 game, it’s 70/30.” I think it is. I go out feeling that the game is already tilted. I think it is a very important part for fans to come to the stadium.”
