The ‘European’ Taegeuk Warriors, who defeated Saudi Arabia and gave coach Jurgen Klinsmann his first win, are continuing to perform well after returning to their team. Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton) and Cho Gyu-seong (Midtjylland), who started against Saudi Arabia on the 13th, both scored goals, and Bayern Munich’s Kim Min-jae also played the full time. Hwang Ui-jo (Norwich City) and Hwang In-beom (Zvezda) made their debuts.
Hwang Hee-chan started in the home game against Liverpool in the 5th round of the 2023-24 season English Professional Football Premier League (EPL) held at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England on the 16th (Korean time) and scored the first goal in the 7th minute of the first half. He has already scored three goals in five league games this season.
Pedro Neto succeeded in breaking through the Liverpool defense on the left and calmly finished the pass to Hwang Hee-chan with a right-footed shot.
Afterwards, Wolverhampton failed to score an additional goal and lost 1-3 to Liverpool.
Cho Gyu-seong, who scored with a header against Saudi Arabia, scored the first goal in the 7th minute of the second half in an away game against Viborg in the 8th round of the Danish professional soccer Super Liga on the same day. Cho Gyu-seong ran toward the goal on Paulinho’s cross and headed it into the net. Cho Gyu-seong, who recorded an assist during the 7th round match against Aarhus on the 4th, scored an attack point in two consecutive games.
Cho Gyu-seong scored 4 goals and 1 assist in league games this season. Including UEFA matches, he has stood out since his first season with 5 goals and 1 assist.
Kim Min-jae, the ‘iron pillar’ who played full-time in the Saudi game, also started in the league match against Leverkusen on the 16th and played until the end of the game. According to WhoScored.com, a soccer statistics site, Kim Min-jae touched the ball 118 times and passed the ball 118 times. With 101, it was the highest among both teams. Minjae Kim is expected to play in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) group stage match against Manchester United on the 21st.
Hwang Ui-jo, who replaced Cho Kyu-seong in the 23rd minute of the second half against Saudi Arabia and improved his practical sense, made his debut in the home game against Stoke City in the 6th round of the English Second Division Championship on the 16th (local time). Hwang Ui-jo, who came on in the 15th minute of the second half, failed to create an attack point.
Bae Jun-ho, who transferred to Stoke City, also started this day, but the two players were unable to play together for a long time as Hwang Ui-jo was replaced just one minute after he took the field. Norwich City won 1-0 that day.
Hwang In-beom, who transferred to the prestigious Serbian club Crvena Zvezda, also made his debut as a substitute in the 7th round away game of the Serbian Superliga on the 17th (Korean time).
Hwang In-beom came on as a substitute for Kings Kanwa at the start of the second half and played as a central midfielder until the end of the game. Zvezda, who gave up the first goal in the 24th minute of the first half, equalized in the 3rd minute of the second half, but allowed one more goal in the 30th minute of the second half and lost 1-2.
Tottenham ‘Captain’ Son Heung-min also started as a ‘one-top’ in the 5th round of the EPL against Sheffield United on the 16th. Son Heung-min received a cutback from Solomon in the 21st minute of the first half and fired a right-footed shot from the left side of the penalty arc, but it did not result in a goal. In the 39th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min put his head to Solomon’s cross from the left side, but it missed to the right of the goal. Son Heung-min was replaced by Brennan Johnson in the 35th minute of the second half.
Tottenham almost lost at home to Sheffield by giving up a goal in the 28th minute of the second half, but consecutive goals from Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski in extra time in the second half resulted in a 2-1 comeback drama.
