The 2010 season was Daegu F.C.'s 8th season in South Korea's K-League.
Season summary
Defender Bang Dae-jong, who had been with the club since his 2008 draft, was named captain for the 2010 season. Brazilian forward Leo returned for another season, supported by fellow Brazilian striker, Anderson. Young Argentine defender Lucas Basualdo also joined the club but never made a significant impact, disappearing during the midseason break. Anderson left the club around the same time and was replaced by another young Argentine Issac, who saw limited playing time.
On the field, Daegu repeated their disappointing performances from the previous season, finishing 15th in the K-League standings, level on points with Gwangju Sangmu. Their defense was particularly weak, conceding the most goals in the league. Out of 28 games, Daegu lost 19, with only five wins and four draws. Offensively, the team also struggled, with Cho Hyung-Ik leading the club in scoring with eight goals.
Daegu's performance in the FA Cup was similarly disappointing, losing 0:1 to National League side Suwon City in extra time. However, they had better success in the League Cup, advancing out of the group stage to the knockout rounds with victories over Daejeon and Busan. In the first knockout match, Daegu drew FC Seoul. Despite forcing a 2–2 draw in extra time, Daegu ultimately lost in the penalty shootout.
