The K League United Podcast

In this episode of the K League United podcast, Andrew Farrell talks to Claire Evans about the Korean national team's double-header with Colombia, following the WK League, and Pohang Steelers' up-turn in form. With Paul Neat and Matthew Binns still away on international duty, Andrew refused to let go of the microphone, and was joined by Claire Evans for a special on women's football in Korea. Claire was in Namdong and Yongin to see the national team take on Colombia either side of the weekend. Claire also introduced the WK League, where the teams are located, and some of the issues associated with the division. Lastly, Claire briefly discussed Pohang Steelers' rise up the table and whether a Pohang fan could possibly support Ulsan HD in the FIFA World Club Cup.

In this episode of the K League United podcast, Andrew Farrell is joined by Luke Evans and Mike Brandon to look back over the first phase of K League 2 fixtures. With Paul Neat and Matthew Binns unavailable due to international call ups, Andrew took over the podcast this week, and naturally turned it in a K League 2 special. But with good reason. The first round robin fixtures are done, and now that the dust has settled, Luke joins the show to discuss Incheon United's near-perfect start to the season. The leaders have opened up a big gap at the summit having dropped just five points thus far. Andrew looks back on a typically roller-coaster start to the season for the third-placed Suwon Samsung, who missed a huge opportunity last weekend to close the gap on their Gyeonggi-do rivals and jump Seoul E-Land in the table. Before all that, Mike opens up about the life of an Ansan Greeners fan, normally derided in Korean football, but this season showing signs of a welcome improvement.
