Hwang Hee-chan Apologizes On The First Day Of The Lunar New Year Holiday
South Korea's national soccer team Hwang Hee-chan Wolverhampton apologized to fans who cheered for the Asian Cup. Hwang Hee-chan said on his SNS on the morning of the 9th, the first day of the Lunar New Year holiday, "I sincerely thank the players who played hard during the tournament and the staff who worked really hard for them." The Korean national team, which was coached by Klismann, finished its schedule early without reaching the final at the tournament. It was regrettable that it lost 0-2 in the semifinal match against Jordan on the 7th. Hwang Hee-chan was one of the anticipated strikers in the tournament. In the quarterfinals against Australia, he started and scored a penalty kick in the second half. However, he was reportedly in poor physical condition ahead of the match against Jordan. Hwang Hee-chan bowed his head, saying, "I wanted to show you a good performance as a result of the victory, but I feel sorry and sorry that I didn't help much at the most important moment." He added, "I felt a great responsibility and thought a lot about it myself as I played this tournament." Finally, he stressed, "It was a great honor to play as a national team player with the national flag once again, and that's why I did my best in every moment," adding, "Thank you for your support and love during the Asian Cup."
