The Incheon–Pohang score reads like one-way traffic, but the match had a fork in the road. Pohang found a chance to level after Incheon’s opener; Incheon then intercepted a pass in Pohang’s half and turned it into the second goal. The third came from a direct pass and a sharp touch, so I wouldn’t put all three down to one repeated move. That shift from a possible equaliser to a much steeper chase is the part I’ll remember.
