R16: Jeonbuk stay firmly on track

Jeonju: Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors eased into the quarter-finals of the AFC Champions League Two™ 2024/25 on Thursday as the side from Korea Republic handed Thailand’s Port FC a 1-0 defeat at Jeonju World Cup Stadium to complete a 5-0 aggregate victory.

Park Jae-yong headed in the game’s only goal to take the two-times continental champions into the next round, where coach Gustavo Poyet and his team will take on Australia’s Sydney FC over two legs next month.

With Jeonbuk holding a 4-0 lead from the first leg in Thailand last week, the Koreans were always heavy favourites to progress and Park’s goal underlined the gulf between the teams.
