In the upcoming episode of SBS's 'Kick a Goal,' airing on the 19th, the fifth match of the G League A Group will take place. This match features the momentum-driven FC Actionista, who won their opening game, against the victory-hungry FC Firefly.
There is a lot of excitement surrounding this rematch of the original powerhouses of 'Kick a Goal,' as it has been about a year and a month since they last faced each other. Currently, FC Firefly holds a record of 1 win and 1 loss in the G League, making a victory essential for them to gain an edge in the rankings. Notably, FC Firefly has never defeated FC Actionista, which adds to the determination of the Firefly players as they prepare for this crucial match.
Currently leading the G League in scoring, Kang Bo-ram stated, "We have lost to Actionista three times in a row, but I believe we will look very different from a year ago. I will definitely score to help us secure the win." This raises curiosity about whether FC Firefly can overcome their historical disadvantage and achieve redemption.
Veteran coach Choi Jin-cheol has prepared an offensive strategy centered around the key trio of FC Firefly: Kang Bo-ram, Han Cho-im, and Lee Seung-yeon. With Lee Seung-yeon as the defensive anchor, Kang Bo-ram, known for her hat-tricks, and Han Cho-im, nicknamed "Choimar," will lead a fast-paced attack. Commentator Bae Sung-jae praised Lee Seung-yeon during the live broadcast, saying, "Today, Lee Seung-yeon is like Kim Min-jae. She has an incredibly wide range of activity as a defender and is handling everything well." Fans are eager to see if FC Firefly can secure a victory and move closer to a top-four finish.
In preparation for the match, FC Firefly had a special session to boost their stamina. Coach Choi Jin-cheol, affectionately known as "Fire Daddy," organized a special meal of octopus soup for team members who had been suffering from leg cramps. He expressed, "We need to focus on recovery right now, and it seems like the players don't eat well normally. So, I thought about what foods could help with their stamina and arranged this." The players reportedly enjoyed the surprise meal in a cheerful atmosphere, energized by their coach's thoughtful gesture. Fans are now looking forward to the performance of FC Firefly, who have replenished their energy with this special meal.
The results of FC Firefly's redemption match, recharged by Coach Choi Jin-cheol's special meal, will be revealed in the episode of 'Kick a Goal' airing at 9 PM on the 19th.
