Jeju moves level

21 March 2010-PA Sport

Jeju United continued its solid start to the new K-League season with a 2-0 victory over Daejeon Citizens pushing Park kyong-hoon's side level on points with leaders Jeonbuk Motors.

New signing Lee Sang-Hyup opened the scoring after 19 minutes with a left-foot shot before the former FC Seoul man set up Park Hyun-beom to seal the win with four minutes remaining.

After picking up a second win of the season unbeaten Jeju improved to eight points and second place in the table level on points with Jeonbuk Motors, while winless Daejeon suffered a third defeat in four games.

"We are playing with confidence at the moment and are feeling good," said Jeju coach Park.

"There is still a long way to go this season. There are 14 other teams in the K-League and none of them are easy opponents but we are not either."

Elsewhere, Ulsan Horang-I moved upto fifth place after a 2-1 win at bottom club Daegu FC.

A late winner from substitute and new Colombian signing Carmelo Valencia handed Ulsan Horang-I a second win of the season.

Finally, a last-minute strike from Lee Hoon secured Gyeongnam FC a 1-1 draw at Chunnam Dragons, while Busan I'Park beat Gwangju Sangmu 2-0 at home.
