Professional soccer K-League 1 FC Seoul officially filed an objection to the Korea Football Association regarding the penalty kick decision that decided the winner in last weekend’s home game against Ulsan HD (0-1 loss).

The Seoul club submitted an official inquiry regarding the penalty kick situation that occurred during the Hana Bank 2024 K League 1 11th round match against Ulsan held at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 4th to the KFA Referee Committee on the 7th.

A Seoul club official personally visited the soccer club located in Jongno-gu, Seoul and delivered a document to the association.

The scene in question occurred around 40 minutes into the second half.

Ulsan Hwang Seok-ho’s cross from the right side was headed by Ataru inside the box, hitting Seoul Choi Jun’s body and heading towards the goalkeeper.

One minute later, referee Kim Hee-gon conducted an on-field review of the situation and declared a penalty kick. It was ruled that Seoul Choi Jun’s arm was hit after Ataru’s header.

In the end, Ulsan won 1-0 with Martin Adam completing the scoring with a kicker, and Seoul lost in the game in front of a crowd of 52,600.

The Seoul club claimed that Choi Jun’s actions were not a handball foul.

Seoul claims that Jon Choi’s arms were not unnaturally spread or raised above his shoulders, and that it was a natural movement to maintain balance when landing after a jump. Because it was an unintentional touch, the penalty kick decision was incorrect.

Furthermore, the club said that the distance between Ataru’s heading point and Choi Jun was right next to each other, the speed of the header ball was also impossible for Choi Jun to react, and it was difficult to intentionally touch the ball because the area where the ball touched was the part furthest from Choi Jun’s hand between his shoulder and elbow. position.

In a similar situation, Seoul emphasized that in the 5th round Gimcheon Sangmu match held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 3rd of last month, Palosevic’s shot hit the hand of Gimcheon Kim Bong-su, but a PK was not called.

The Seoul club said, “Fans have concerns and questions as a decision issue arose in a stadium with the largest crowd of spectators in professional sports, 52,600 people,” and added, “This is an opportunity for the association and the club to work closely with each other to resolve the controversy over the decision.” “I want it to be reduced,” he requested.
