Hwang Hee-chan (27, Wolverhampton) contributed to the team’s victory by inducing the opponent’s own goal, but collapsed again with a back thigh (hamstring) injury. It is unfortunate that he could miss up to two months in a situation where he had solidified his position as a starter.
Hwang Hee-chan was involved in the opening goal in the first half of the 2022-23 season English Premier League (EPL) round 22 Liverpool home game held at Molyneux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England on the 5th (Korean time) and helped the team win 3-0. Earlier, on the 8th of last month, he saved the team from defeat with a 2-2 equalizer against Liverpool in the round of 64 of the FA Cup, and his first goal of the season. He showed a strong side to Liverpool and helped the team win the home game against Liverpool for the first time in 12 years in the league.
Hwang Hee-chan shook his opponent with his unique reckless breakthrough. In the 5th minute of the first half, the ball received from the right side was dragged into the penalty box, and the ball passed to the central teammate hit the leg of Liverpool defender Joel Matip and became a goal. At this time, Hwang Hee-chan’s onside action of penetrating between defenders and breaking the line was impressive. Although it was recorded as Matip’s own goal, it was a goal made by Hwang Hee-chan’s fantastic movement.
Hwang Hee-chan continued to break through quickly after Craig Dawson’s additional goal 7 minutes later. Then bad luck struck. In the 39th minute of the first half, while trying to break through on the right side in a counterattack situation, he grabbed his right thigh and sat down. He sent a replacement sign to the bench and hit the ground with his fist as if he was sorry for his injury. In the end, he was replaced by Adama Traore, and local fans comforted him with a standing ovation.
Hwang Hee-chan’s injury is inevitable. He was consistently on the starting list with the trust of newly appointed coach Hulen Lopetegui in November last year. While consolidating his position, he was injured again and was unable to play for a while. 온라인카지노
He has been absent for nearly two months since moving to Wolverhampton in the 2021-22 season. In December 2021, he missed six games due to a hamstring injury. During the 2017-18 season in Salzburg, Austria, he also suffered a hamstring injury and missed a total of 13 games for two months.
This is his second hamstring injury this season. He suffered a left hamstring injury just before the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and joined the national team. At the time, he did not play in the World Cup group stage against Uruguay and Ghana. He came on as a substitute before Portugal, the last game of the group stage, and soothed the disappointment with a come-from-behind goal.
Hwang Hee-chan’s injury is expected to act as a variable for the team. After the game, Lopetegui said, “Hwang Hee-chan suffered a hamstring injury, which is unfortunate for the team. We don’t know how long his injury will last.” I have to choose,” he said sadly.
