“I came here thinking, ‘I can play 19 games,’ but there are already two games left.”
FC Seoul played Incheon United on the 7th at the Incheon Soccer Stadium in the 17th round of Hana One Q K League 1 2023. In the ‘Gyeongin Derby’ confrontation, Zerso allowed the opening goal, but Hwang Ui-jo’s equalizer in the early stages of the second half resulted in a 1-1 draw.
Seoul (8 wins, 4 draws, 5 losses, 28 points) shares 1 point with Incheon (4 wins, 7 draws, 6 losses, 19 points), surpassing Jeju (28 points) in the goal difference to rise to third place.
After the game, Hwang Eui-jo, who participated in the press conference as a player of the game, said, “It is a positive thing that we did not lose in a row. I hope to prepare well for the next game and win at home.”
In the 8th minute of the second half of the day, when Seoul was trailing 0-1, Hwang Ui-jo scored his third goal in the league by stabbing the corner of Incheon’s goal with a sharp mid-range shot in front of the penalty box.
This goal by Hwang Eui-jo was the first goal scored in 8 games since he scored against Suwon Samsung in the 8th round.
Regarding the lack of scoring, Hwang Eui-jo said, “It is true that it was frustrating. However, I was more focused on the team winning. Of course, this is the part where I am greedy. I hope to show a better performance in the next game, “he said, revealing his regret for the score that had not been scored so far and his determination for the next game.
Confidence was emphasized in the scoring scene. Hwang Ui-jo said, “I entered like this today, but I think I need to hit more with more confidence in the future. Strikers have to shoot to score goals, so I’ll try to challenge and shoot a lot.”
After the game, coach Ahn Ik-soo praised Hwang Ui-jo for scoring and mentoring, but Hwang Ui-jo said, “I don’t say much,” and “I think they talk a lot about being greedy. The players are really greedy and have their own I hope to be able to challenge on a higher stage while showing my skills well,” he said, expressing his thoughts on the development of his juniors.
Hwang Eui-jo also paid a lot of attention to his future whereabouts and the part where he did not have much left in his life in Seoul.
Hwang Eui-jo, who chose to join Seoul on a short-term loan for six months ahead of the training camp in Japan this winter, returned to the K-League stage after six years. He belonged to Nottingham Forest (England) and was loaned to Olympiacos (Greece) last summer and looked for an opportunity, but he failed to play an active part in Olympiacos and made an unprecedented decision to lease Seoul.
Regarding his future move, he said, “I’m not sure, but I’m communicating with my agent right now, and when it’s over on the 30th, I think we’ll have to talk and decide sooner or later. I’m not sure yet,” he said, and nothing has been decided.메이저놀이터
Hwang Eui-jo, who answered the question about the number of games remaining, said, “As far as I know, there are two games.” I want to. Personally, I will prepare well, but I want to win so that Seoul can stay in a good ranking.”
Hwang Eui-jo, who expressed his affection for the team and his determination to win, plans to do his best until the end of his journey with Seoul by sortie against Pohang Steelers on the 11th and Suwon on the 24th.
