FC Seoul secured their first South Korean football championship in over a decade on Saturday. The match between FC Seoul and Gangwon FC ended in a 1-1 draw at Seoul World Cup Stadium. This victory put FC Seoul at 67 points with five games remaining in the season. Ulsan HD FC stayed in second place with 51 points after drawing 2-2 with Pohang Steelers.
With this result, FC Seoul became the third team to win the K League 1 title with more than half of the season still to play, following 2018 and 2025 Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors. The top six teams will compete in Final A, while the bottom six will compete in Final B. They will each play five additional matches within their respective groups to finalize the season.
FC Seoul ended a goalless first half with a goal from Moon Seon-min in the 58th minute. Despite Gangwon FC equalizing through Kang Jun-hyuk seven minutes later, FC Seoul still claimed the title as Ulsan required a specific set of outcomes to overtake them.
