  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Lingard produced a moment of brilliance in the 42nd minute, smashing home a stunning volley from way outside the box after Ulsan failed to clear a cross and his team-mate headed the ball back into his path. That special strike proved to be the only goal of the game, securing three valuable points for FC Seoul. It marked the Englishman's fifth goal of the 2025 season and came during a strong run of form.

  • WHAT LINGARD SAID

    Speaking to the media after the game, Lingard said: “In common terms, it felt like the ball was right on my foot. At that moment, I felt, ‘This is a goal,’ or ‘The goalkeeper will be in trouble.’ I think my confidence just surged.

    "I personally think it will be among the top five goals of my life. My shot was good, but Hwang Do-yoon's pass was excellent. I will continue to train hard to not only help the team but also to show my best performance consistently."

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    With the result against Ulsan, FC Seoul have now climbed into fourth place in the K League 1 table, strengthening their chances of qualifying for the playoffs. Ulsan, now sitting seventh, missed the chance to close the gap and remain just outside the top six. Lingard’s resurgence is proving vital to Seoul’s late-season push.

    WHAT NEXT FOR LINGARD?

    FC Seoul will look to build on this momentum as they continue their playoff push in the final stretch of the regular season. Lingard, under contract until December with an option to extend, is hitting top form at just the right time with four goal contributions in his last four appearances. With his confidence growing, he could yet play a decisive role in the club’s postseason hopes.
