In yesterday’s match, Ansan Greeners took the lead through Kwon Young-ho’s flick in the 36th minute.
Unfortunately, Bucheon FC could turn things around in a fast tempo through Han Ji-ho’s two goals in the 60th and 65th minutes.
Ansan Greeners responded by including three foreign players, Robson Duarte, Thiago Henrique and Asnawi.
During the 15 minutes of playing, it was clear that coach Cho Min Kook had different ideas on how to “wear” Asnawi.

Positionally, Asnawi is placed as a right winger, with the task of combing the flanks and sending crosses.
However, in a build-up situation from behind, Asnawi often changes positions to become the front player, aka occupying the striker area.
As for striker Thiago Henrique was asked to come down to the back to pick up and win the first ball.
Cho Min Kook probably saw Asnawi’s weakness in terms of dueling in midfield and aerial duels, so he was asked to “wait” up front.

Asnawi Mangkualam was placed higher than the striker in the match Bucheon FC vs Ansan Greeners (27/2/2022).
In addition, placing the fast Asnawi in the leading position could also be advantageous if Ansan Greeners could throw the ball behind the opponent’s defense line, which unfortunately did not happen.
In the end, Asnawi’s positioning in the penalty box resulted in a golden opportunity, when he got a rebound in the 84th minute.
Unfortunately, Asnawi was not calm in executing the flying ball and beat it soaring far.
