Hwang Eui-jo (31), the forward striker of FC Seoul, has set a goal to lead the team to the top of the K-League 1 by the coming summer.
Hwang Ui-jo scored the winning goal in the 7th minute of the second half in the home match between Suwon Samsung and Hana 1 Q K League 1 2023 Round 8 held at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 22nd, leading the team to a 3-1 victory.
In the 7th minute of the second half with a 1-0 lead, Seoul connected Ki Sung-yong’s left corner kick with Kim Joo-sung’s header. Suwon Jeong Seung-won failed to clear it properly, and Hwang Ui-jo, who was in front of the goal, pushed the ball in.
It was his second goal this season and his first field goal. The last time Hwang Eui-jo scored a field goal in the K-League was against Gyeongnam FC on June 24, 2017, during the K-League 2 (second division) Seongnam FC. Hwang Eui-jo, who scored his first field goal in about six years, was delighted with his hands up.
After the match, Hwang Eui-jo, who experienced his first super match and his first super match this season, said, “I am more than happy that I helped a win situation.” He added, “It is rare for so many spectators to come in the K-League.”
Regarding his goal for the rest of the year, Hwang Ui-jo stressed, “My goal is to be number one on the team.” He continued, “Ulsan is winning a lot now, but we are following up enough,” he said. “I hope that the team called Seoul can really stay in first place for the remaining two months.”
Earlier this year, Hwang Eui-jo briefly made a U-turn from the European stage to the K-League. In the summer, he signed a short-term contract with Seoul to re-enter the European stage. His junior and teammate Na Sang-ho is trying to convince Hwang Eui-jo to join him in Seoul half-jokingly and half-seriously.메이저사이트
Regarding his future move, Hwang Eui-jo smiled and said, “The future is unknown.” Even so, he said, “My goal is to come to Seoul and improve my condition as much as possible and once again challenge a good stage,” and “I am heading towards that goal now.”
Seoul, which has jumped to second place in the league, will challenge 2 consecutive wins in the 11th place Gangwon FC away on the 26th.
