Chunnam Dragons' bad start to the K-League season continued on Sunday after they lost 1-0 at Incheon United just four days after their 2-0 defeat at the hands of Melbourne Victory in the Asian Champions League.
With three days before Gamba Osaka head to South Korea for their second match in the continental competition, Chunnam find themselves without a point after the first two games of the season.
After a long trip home from Australia, Chunnam were caught napping at Incheon as they fell behind after just 41 seconds.
Dzenan Radoncic pounced upon a loose ball in the area after Chunnam had failed to clear their lines to fire home.
Chunnam went close to equalising on the half-hour mark but Kim Tae-soo's header bounced off the bar and while Park Hang-seo's team continued to create chances, they were unable to find the equaliser.
The trend continued in the second half as Song Jung-hyun missed an open goal and Kim Myung-yoon hit the post.
In the day's other big game, Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma and Suwon Samsung Bluewings drew 2-2.
Han Dong-won opened the scoring for Seongnam after 24 minutes only for Suwon midfielder Lee Kwan-woo to fire home a spectacular strike from long distance four minutes later.
Dudu restored Seongnam's lead in the 35th minute but six minutes into the second half, Lee equalised once more for Suwon to earn his team a point.
Elsehwere, Gwangju Sangmu defeated Gyeongnam FC 2-0 and Daegu FC came from behind to down Busan I'Park 3-2.
