Pohang laughs on penalties in 2013 Jeonbuk has won a record six times 3 wins and 1 draw over Pohang in the head-to-head this season

For the first time in a decade, Pohang and Jeonbuk will battle for the Football Association (FA) Cup championship trophy.

The FA Cup final between the two teams will take place on April 4 at 2:15 p.m. at Pohang Steel Yard. A single-leg match will determine the winner. The two teams were FA Cup finalists in 2013, when Pohang defeated Jeonbuk on penalties to win the title.

Defending champions Jeonbuk will be looking to win their second straight title and sixth overall. With five FA Cup titles, Jeonbuk is tied with Suwon for the most wins. A win over Pohang would give them sole possession of first place. Jeonbuk hopes to secure a spot in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League next season by winning the FA Cup. The first through third-place teams in the K League 1 and the winner of the FA Cup qualify for the Champions League next season, and Jeonbuk is currently fourth in the K League 1. With three games to go, they are four points behind third-place Gwangju, and if they miss out on the FA Cup, they will not qualify for next year's Champions League. Jeonbuk's Baek Seung-ho, who scored the winning goal in the quarterfinal against Incheon, said, "We have been aiming to win the FA Cup since the beginning of the season. Our players have a lot of experience playing in the FA Cup final. We will prepare well and make new history," he said.

Pohang will be looking to win their first title in 10 years and their fifth overall. Pohang is desperate to win the FA Cup championship trophy after losing the title to Ulsan in the K League 1 this season. The four-time FA Cup champions can tie Jeonbuk for the most wins in the competition if they defeat them in the final. Pohang has dominated their four meetings with the K League One side this season, winning three and drawing one. "We haven't lost to Jeonbuk this year. We are confident." 토토사이트
