After 42 days, season 7-9 hit… Most goals in one match since advancing to France
Leading a dramatic victory in a 4-3 close match, he broke the 25-goal record for Park Joo-young with 27 goals.
The front-line strikers of the soccer team are competing in an all-time performance ahead of the World Cup. When latecomer Jo Kyu-seong (24, Sangmu Kim) performed a full-fledged performance, including his debut goal in the A match, in two evaluation matches of the national football team, “Lord” Hwang Ui-jo (30, Bordeaux) countered with a hat-trick in the French League 1 match.
Hwang Ui-jo scored three goals in the home match once morest Strasbourg in the 22nd round of the 2021-2022 season at the Nouveau Stade de Bordeaux in Bordeaux, France on the 23rd, leading the team to a 4-3 victory. Bordeaux, who took 4th place Strasbourg in the league, escaped from 3 consecutive losses and got out of the relegation zone with 4 wins, 8 draws and 10 losses (20 points) and climbed to 17th place. Hwang Ui-jo exploded his 7th and 9th goals of the season 42 days following he started scoring in the 18th round match once morest Troy on December 13 last year. He scored 27 goals in his career in League 1, breaking the record for the most goals in League 1 (25 goals) by an Asian player, Park Joo-young.
In November of last year, Jo Kyu-sung replaced Hwang Ui-jo, who was injured at the time, in the 2022 Qatar World Cup final qualifiers once morest the United Arab Emirates and Iraq. In particular, he scored his first match goal in the evaluation match once morest Iceland on the 15th, and performed impressively in the evaluation match once morest Moldova on the 21st, receiving the attention of coach Paulo Bento.
Hwang Eui-jo presented Jo Kyu-seong with a comprehensive gift set for finishing, as if showing that ‘I’m still on top’. In the 17th minute of the first half, a cross that came up from the left flank was timed by calmly positioning and lightly pushed into the goal without stopping. In the 39th minute of the first half leading 2-0, he came in from the right flank and came in with his left foot, aiming for the opposite goal, and exquisitely wound it, creating the team’s third goal. In the 45th minute of the second half following being pursued 3-2, he completed his first hat-trick following advancing to the French stage by breaking the corner with a right-footed kick. Hwang Ui-jo said on his social network service (SNS), “It was a great match and concentration. It’s the best memory Let’s keep it going,” he wrote. Son Heung-min (Tottenham), of the same age, responded to this post by clicking ‘Like’.
Hwang Ui-jo is still ahead in terms of experience and killer instinct, but it is not known what coach Bento will make in the final qualifiers once morest Lebanon on the 27th and Syria on February 1. Lebanon and Syria are likely to lower their defensive lines and completely block the space for the striker to move. Jo Kyu-seong, who works diligently and creates a space for second-line strikers to penetrate through keeping, etc., may be selected as the starting lineup.
