Spoils shared in the sun

Seohyeon Celtic remain unbeaten after a dogged second half performance secured a point against old rivals Phoenix.

With club legend Joey grabbing his second goal in as many games since his return, the game turned on two decisions – one refereeing and one playing. A soft penalty given just before half time resulting in a harsh yellow card for Miguel brought Phoenix back into a game they hadn’t threatened in.

The same player was to make an ill-advised challenge just after time to receive his second yellow, leaving Celtic to battle almost the entire second half with 10 players. Phoenix were boosted by the arrival of a few attacking threats, but were held at arms length by a resolute defensive display. Indeed, Obed could have won the game with two late chances, one brilliantly turned onto the bar, and one shot dragged wide after just running out of steam.

Still unbeaten, and a break for Chuseok before we take on the guaranteed goals of Prancesco9.
