[스포츠서울 박준범기자] Korean leaguers started running again in the new year.
Korean leaguers ended the start of 2021 smoothly. First of all, Son Heung-min (29, Tottenham) smiled wide. Son Heung-min broke the silence of scoring in three games and led the team’s 3-0 victory with one goal and one help in the 17th round match against Leeds United in the English Premier League in the 2020-2021 season, held on the 2nd (hereinafter Korean time). With his 12th goal in the season, he climbed to second place alone in the scoring category. In addition, Son Heung-min was on the top of his career at 100 goals after joining Tottenham in 2015. In the midst of Son Heung-min’s performance, Tottenham also broke the chain of winning 4 games (2 draws, 2 losses).
Kwon Chang-hoon (27, Freiburg) and Hwang Hee-chan (25, Leipzig), who were diagnosed with a novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) after going on an A-match expedition to Austria in November last year, started a full-fledged return. Kwon Chang-hoon started as a midfielder on the right in the 2020-2021 season against Hoffenheim in the 14th round of Bundesliga in Germany held at the Jinsheim Free Zero Arena in Baden-Württemberg, Germany on the 3rd, and played 66 minutes. It was the first league starter this season. Kwon Chang-hoon diligently walked the ground, but he could not record the attack point. Teammate Jung Woo-young (22) was included in the replacement list, but his appearance was lost.
Hwang Hee-chan, who suffered from severe symptoms that manager Julian Nagelsmann said, “I almost died for the first 7 days,” was also included in the list of appearances in the 2020-2021 season’s Bundesliga round 14 Stuttgart away. Hwang Hee-chan was included in the list in about two months after the fight against Freiburg on November 8 last year. Although I couldn’t participate, it is meaningful just to overcome Corona 19 and accompany the team. Hwang Hee-chan is likely to play a comeback match in the Bundesliga’traditional powerhouse’ Dortmund on the 10th. In addition, Baek Seung-ho (24, Darmstadt), who is playing in the German Bundesliga second division, also took 83 minutes to get a start in the first game of the new year. Although he failed to achieve the attack points for 4 consecutive games, he is receiving a steady opportunity by starting for 7 consecutive games.
