The Korean Professional Football League announced on the 5th, “Ilyuchenko, who led Seoul to a 5-1 victory with 2 goals and 2 assists in the 5th round match against Gimcheon Sangmu held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 3rd, was selected as the 5th round MVP.”
Ilyuchenko assisted Cho Young-wook’s first goal in the 16th minute of the first half. In the 16th minute of the first half, Ilyuchenko delivered a low cross from the left side to Cho Young-wook with his back to the defender. Cho Young-wook, who had a chance to shoot, hit the net with a strong ground ball.
He then scored a goal in the 34th minute of the first half. Palosevic stole the ball from Kim Bong-su on the right side of the opponent’s half and passed it on to Im Sang-hyeop. Im Sang-hyeop stabbed a pass from the left side of the box into the goal, and Ilyuchenko pushed in with his right foot.
Soon after, Ilyuchenko exploded with multiple goals. At 38 minutes of the first half, Ki Sung-yueng dribbled from the left side into the penalty box and stabbed a pass towards the goal. Ilyuchenko pushed it into the net with his left foot.
Ilyuchenko, who had scored only one penalty and no field goal in four games from the opening game until the previous game, washed away all his poor performance with his excellent performance on this day.

It is not an exaggeration to say that we did everything we had prepared for, especially in the first half. We scored 4 goals in early and the game was taken easily. However, we were in control for the first 15 minutes of the second half.” “But after conceding a goal, we went ahead again and it was a game that was enough to get us three points,” he said of the win. When asked if he thought this was his best game ‘ since moving to Seoul in 2022, he answered “yes.”
Ilyuchenko’s assistant, who played very well, was coach Kim Ki-dong. Coach Kim Ki-dong admitted in a pre-match press conference, “I showed Ilyuchenko an edited video from our peak days together with the Pohang Steelers.” The impact of the video was truly amazing. Ilyuchenko said, “Seeing good performances in the past boosts my positive thinking and confidence. I think today’s performance clearly had the effect of the video and the meeting.” He then expressed his deep trust in Kim Ki-dong’s football, saying, “The football that the coach follows and the football that I can excel at are 99% consistent.
Coach Kim Ki-dong mentioned that in the previous game against Gangwon FC, captain Ki Sung-yong recommended Ilyuchenko to take the penalty kick and said, “Seoul will only survive when Ilyuchenko survives.” Ilyuchenko, who heard this from reporters, said, “I finally found out that the players think so, and it makes me feel good.” He also said, “When I do well, everyone on my team always does well. Today’s game is a perfect example.”
Along with Ilyuchenko, Mugosa (Incheon), Lee Sang-heon (Gangwon), and Kim In-gyun (Daejeon) were included in the top 11 K-League 1 strikers.
The midfielders were Kim In-gyun (Daejeon), Hayes (Jeju), Ki Sung-yueng, and Cho Young-wook (Seoul). The chosen defenders were Yoon Seok-young, Ki-hyuk Lee (Gangwon), and Song Joo-hoon (Jeju). The goalkeeper is Lee Chang-geun (Daejeon).
