Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors defeated Ulsan with a 1-0 victory thanks to Motta's header goal, ending a three-game losing streak and rising to third place in the league. This match is significant as Jeonbuk recorded its third consecutive win against 'rival' Ulsan this year and extended its seven-game unbeaten streak at Jeonju World Cup Stadium. Motta scored his first goal in five months and was active, while Ulsan's goalkeeper Jo Hyun-woo's good defense was not enough to stop Jeonbuk's attack. Meanwhile, league leader FC Seoul solidified its top spot with a 7-0 victory over Anyang, reaching 50 points. Bucheon recorded its fifth consecutive unbeaten streak by defeating Pohang 3-0, while Jeju and Gimcheon Sangmu ended in a scoreless draw.
