Meanwhile, Chungnam Asan FC celebrated a resounding 3-0 win against Ansan Greeners, further complicating the latter's struggle at the bottom of the league.
The match at the Bucheon Sports Complex on April 26, 2025, saw Incheon take an early lead just 10 seconds into the game, setting a new K-League record for the fastest goal. Park Seung-ho's incredible strike stunned the home crowd and set the tone for the match. Although Bucheon managed to equalize in the 19th minute thanks to Park Chang-jun, Incheon responded quickly. Lee Myung-joo put them back in front in the 29th minute, followed by a goal from Mugosa in the 34th minute, securing the win and maintaining Incheon’s position at the top of the league table with 22 points.
Mugosa's goal marked his eighth of the season, keeping him as the leading scorer in K-League 2. With this victory, Incheon has now won four consecutive matches and appears to be in excellent form as they look to maintain their lead.
In a closely contested match, Seoul E-Land also made headlines by defeating Gyeongnam FC 2-1. The victory lifted E-Land to second place, now sitting on 17 points. Aideil opened the scoring for E-Land in the second minute, but Gyeongnam's Lee Kang-hee equalized just before halftime.

He highlighted the importance of the victory as they prepare for upcoming matches against league leaders Incheon and traditional rivals Busan.
However, the defeat for Ansan Greeners means they remain at the bottom of the league table with just four points. Coach Lee Kwan-woo reflected on the match, saying, "We conceded three goals again despite focusing on our defensive balance this week. We need to improve quickly to avoid these situations in the future."
