Foreign player Osmar of FC Seoul in the professional football K League 1 wrote a great record. Osmar played in his 255th career game, breaking the club’s all-time appearance record.
Seoul won 3-1 in the Hana 1 Q K League 1 2023 Round 8 home game against Suwon Samsung held at 2:00 pm on the 22nd at the Seoul World Cup Stadium. National strikers Na Sang-ho, Hwang Eui-jo, and Palosevich succeeded in scoring and led the rivalry to victory. At the end of the game, Suwon Mulich conceded a goal, but it did not affect the game.
Veteran foreign player Osmar started as the center of the three-back. Osmar, who played 254 games in Seoul alone before the game, broke the record for the most appearances by a foreign player in the history of the Seoul club by playing on this day. The previous record was 254 matches held by Osmar and Dejan, considered one of the greatest strikers of all time.
The performance on the day was also great. Osmar played as a central defender, but at times went up to midfield and played an important role in mixing the three-back and four-back. In addition, based on his rich experience and strong physicality, he blocks the Suwon pass well and adds stability to the midfield and rear.
Osmar, who left Buriram United in Thailand in January 2014 and entered FC Seoul, has been playing only in Seoul for 9 years, excluding the 2018 J-League Cerezo Osaka loan period. Ahead of the 2022 season, he re-signed with the club and expressed his wish to stay for 10 years. 메이저사이트
The record that Osmar is writing in the K-League is currently in progress. Osmar, who has already made the first claim as a foreign player and set a record for full-time appearances in one season, set a record of 255 appearances that day and is emerging as the best foreign player ever in the K-League beyond Seoul.
Meanwhile, Dejan holds the record for the most appearances by a foreign player in K-League history. He played in 380 games through Incheon United, Seoul, Suwon, and Daegu FC. He ranks 26th among domestic and international players.
