Daegu F.C.


When I came to Daegu I was aware that their baseball club, the Samsung Lions, were one of the better teams in the country while the soccer club, Daegu F.C., was something of a joke.  Times have changed though -- while the Lions are now basement dwellers, the soccer team (in blue) now plays in the top tier and is challenging for a championship this year.

This was my first match in the new downtown stadium as opposed to the World Cup stadium pretty far outside of town (the Usain Bolt one, as I like to call it).


Daegu won over Sangju Sangmu 1-0 on a late goal.

Interestingly, this new stadium was built on top of the old Daegu baseball stadium.  Why?  Who knows.
