Hwang Hee-chan, who played as a frontline striker, had light movements. Although concerns were raised about a decline in physical condition due to a back injury, he led the attack by creating a series of threatening scenes with his unique quick penetration, calm ball control in the penalty box, and shot painting motion.

Unfortunately, Hwang Hee-chan did not score a goal due to a hit on the goal post and an unfortunate offside. In fact, in the 7th minute of the first half, he had a decisive opportunity by beating goalkeeper Jordan Pickford near the left side of the goal, but unfortunately the opportunity was lost as he missed the timing of the shot. In the 14th minute of the second half, he stole possession near the halfway line, quickly entered the penalty box, removed James Tarkowski with a shot feint motion, and hit a shot, but it hit the goal post.

Afterwards, Hwang Hee-chan unfortunately had two decisive chances that were canceled out. In the 26th minute of the second half, a shot struck while rushing in front of the goal was blocked by goalkeeper Pickford. A minute later, he scored with his left foot inside the penalty box, but unfortunately was flagged for offside while penetrating.

However, Hwang Hee-chan provided an assist by assisting attack partner Matheus Cunha’s goal in the previous process. In the 8th minute of the second half, Hwang Hee-chan penetrated the right side of the penalty box and fired a low, quick cross in front of the goal. Cunya, who was rushing in from behind, finished this off easily. Hwang Hee-chan also scored his 13th attack point this season along with his 3rd assist in the EPL. It is also an attack point for two consecutive games.

On this day, Hwang Hee-chan hit 3 shots and made 2 effective shots while playing full time. He made one dribble break and one key pass each, and recorded four ball duel wins and three fouls. ‘Sofa Score’ and ‘WhoScored.com’, media outlets specializing in soccer statistics, gave Hwang Hee-chan a rating of 7.5 and 7.6, respectively. This was the highest ranking for both teams.

Wolverhampton continued their good streak by defeating Everton 3-0, winning three games in a row. They maintained their 11th place on the leaderboard with 28 points (8 wins, 4 draws, 8 losses). Wolverhampton, on the rise, will travel to Brentford on the 6th of next month to play the third round of the English Football Association (FA) Cup.

Hwang Hee-chan will be called up for a month due to the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup, which opens on the 13th of next month. According to the Korea Football Association (KFA), he is scheduled to leave Wolverhampton on the 2nd of next month and join Klinsmann, who will begin training in Abu Dhabi.

Wolverhampton got off to a good start. In the 25th minute of the first half, Matheus Cunha crossed from the right side outside the penalty box, and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford blocked Craig Dawson’s shot with his toe in front of the goal. However, in the second ball situation, Max Kilman quickly rushed in and threw his body to push the ball in.

Wolverhampton, who had been playing the game leisurely after taking the lead, widened the gap with an additional goal. In the 8th minute of the second half, Pablo Sarabia stabbed a pass and Hwang Hee-chan quickly penetrated to the right side of the penalty box. Hwang Hee-chan then sent a low, quick cross in front of the goal, and Cunha, who was rushing in from behind, just tapped his foot and hit the net.

Wolverhampton continued to attack in waves and eventually put a wedge in the game. In the 16th minute of the second half, Cunha crossed from the left side, and in front of the goal, Dawson turned slightly with his toe and hit the net. After a video review (VAR), the goal was finally recognized as a goal. In the end, the game ended with Wolverhampton winning 3-0.
