SEOUL, Dec 6 (Reuters) - FC Seoul won their first Korean
league title in a decade after beating Jeju United 2-1 at
Seoul World Cup Stadium.
After battling to a 2-2 draw in Jeju in the first leg on
Wednesday, Seoul rallied from a goal down on Sunday to claim
the title with a 4-3 aggregate victory in front of more than
55,000 fans.
After having a goal disallowed for offside in the 10th
minute, Seoul fell behind to Brazilian Santos's goal 15
minutes later.
However, Seoul striker Jung Jo-gook equalised with a
penalty three minutes later before Adilson Dos Santos headed
the winner from a corner in the 72nd minute.
The team last won the K-League title in 2000 when they
were based in Anyang.
