The Bundesliga has taken center stage this weekend, but although we’re asleep for it, we shouldn’t sleep on the K League. In the early hours of Sunday morning, Ulsan’s three-goal comeback allowed the visiting side to escape Suwon’s Big Bird Stadium with all three points.
Suwon took the lead right before halftime thanks to this sensational strike from midfielder Ko Seung-beom. Ko took possession inside his own half, nutmegged his marker, took off on a 40-yard run and — with the defenders backing off — dialed up an unstoppable drive from 25 yards out.

Suwon doubled its lead shortly after halftime through Bosnian striker Sulejman Krpić, but Ulsan would storm back with goals from Junior Negrão and Kim In-sung, setting the stage for Negrão’s dramatic winner in the 89th minute.
