Lingard helps FC Seoul set crowd record for derby

Former Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard helped FC Seoul set an attendance record today.

In the derby against Incheon United, which finished 0-0, a record 51,670 fans attended with Lingard the headliner.

The former England international came on after half an hour.

He later said: "Probably should have won in the end. I had a couple of half-chances.

"Not enough clear chances, but I think we can build on this. I think it's all about mindset and confidence coming into these games.

"In front of a big crowd, first home game - amazing support throughout.

"We maybe should have finished off our chances."
