Hwang Hee-chan added an offensive point in his last home game before joining the South Korean national soccer team, helping the team’s winning streak.
Wolverhampton Wanderers defeated Everton 3-0 at home in the 20th round of the 2023/24 Premier League at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England on the 31st (Korea time).
With Hwang Hee-chan scoring one assist, Wolverhampton maintained its 11th place (8 wins, 4 draws, 8 losses, 28 points, goal difference -1) by winning 3-2 away from Luton Town, which ended 30 minutes before the match, with Chelsea in the 10th place (28 points, goal difference +3) on the rise.
Hwang Hee-chan helped his team score its second goal, which Matheus Cunha scored in the final match, ahead of his team’s 2023 Asian Cup run in Qatar. He showed off his outstanding offense in the offensive zone.
Wolverhampton played the role of 3-4-2-1. Goalkeeper Jose Sa, Craig Dawson, Maximilian Kilman, and Toti Gomes formed the back three. Rayan Ait Nouri, Nelsong Semedo, João Gomes and Tommy Doyle were behind the wingback. Hwang Hee-chan and Pablo Sarabia were in the second line, and Mateus Cunha was in the front line.
Against this backdrop, Everton, the visiting team, faced off in a 5-4-1 format. Goalkeepers Jordan Pickford, Michael Keane, James Tacowski, and Jared Branswaite served as the central defenders, while Nathan Patterson and Vitaly Mykolenko served as wing-backs. Amadou Onana and James Garner were in the midfield, Dwight McNeil and Jack Harrison were in the side midfield, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin was in the forefront to score.
From the beginning of the first half, the attack started with Hwang Hee-chan. He secured a long pass from the back by penetrating into the back space and tried to cross after beating one defender with a unique folding motion. He failed to lead to the shooting, but he embarrassed the opponent from the beginning of the game.
Everton struggled due to Wolverhampton’s high pressure in the forward section. At the 13th minute in the first half, Wolverhampton again kicked the ball in the midfield, but Cunha aimed for the goal with a mid-range shot but missed the side slightly. At the 20th minute in the first half, McNeil also aimed for the goal with a sharp shot from the right, but it was high.
Wolverhampton scored the first goal in a good flow. Dawson overcame defensive interference and attempted to shoot Cunha’s cross after a corner kick in the 24th minute of the first half. Pickford blocked it and saved it in front of the goal line, but Kilman pushed it back to shake the net. 월카지노
When Dawson failed to cut Onana’s penetration pass in the 45th minute of extra time in the first half, Calvert-Lewin had a one-on-one chance, but Josey did not allow a shot as he narrowed the angle. The first half ended like this.
The second half also started with Wolverhampton’s flow. Hwang Hee-chan succeeded in breaking through the right half space in the 8th minute of the second half by Sarabia’s penetrating has. Hwang Hee-chan attempted a low cross and Cunha, who rushed from the other side, pushed it in. It was Hwang Hee-chan’s third help of the season.
Wolverhampton again sought a chance. Hwang Hee-chan launched a counterattack due to a mistake between Everton’s defense at 14 minutes into the second half. Moving forward to the box, he faked his shot to beat Tacowski before attempting to shoot with his left foot, which hit the post, which was regrettable.
