Seoul E-Land FC will play its second-ever "Seoul Derby" against FC Seoul in the third round of the 2024 Hana Bank Korea Cup at Mokdong Stadium at 7:30 p.m. on the 17th (Wednesday).

This year's Seoul Derby carries even more special significance. This is because it is also the Osmar Derby for Osmar, a K-League legend who moved to E-Land FC in Seoul this season after playing for FC Seoul for the past nine years.

Ahead of the match, Osmar said, "I feel very strange. I don't know how I will feel when I meet and greet my former teammates before the match. It will be a really special match because the emotions I feel right now will be amplified 10 to 100 times."

This is not the first "Seoul derby" for Osmar. In the first Seoul derby held in the third round of the FA Cup in 2021, Osmar played full-time for FC Seoul. Back then, Seoul E-Land FC defeated FC Seoul 1-0 in an away match.

Regarding the match at the time, Osmar said, "Honestly, I thought it would be an easy match, but it wasn't really the case. I hope the opponent team will come with the same mind this time as well. I want to show that we are not an easy team. This is our home. I want to win."

FC Seoul is a big club, but there is a strong possibility if we compete as a team." Osmar said, "We have to recognize our strengths as a team. Our strength is to defend and attack together. As we are getting better, I hope we can display good performances in the Seoul Derby."

He also said that although he feels unfamiliar dealing with his former teammates, it will be a new challenge. "I trained and played with FC Seoul players, but I have never faced them in an official match, so it will be a new challenge for myself. I want to meet them at the stadium by preparing well to show good games, memories and new stories to my fans," he said, hinting at competition in good faith.
