Suwon FC concentrated on defense during the 5-minute extra time and maintained a 1-goal victory.

Jeju ranked 8th with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 6 losses (14 points). Pohang seemed to be on the verge of victory, maintaining the upper hand until the 45th minute of the second half thanks to Hong Yun-sang's first goal in the 12th minute of the first half.
