Ji So -yeon (34, Seattle Lane) lifted the championship trophy.
Ji So-yeon led the team’s 2-0 victory over Taiwan, the 2025 East Asian Football Federation (East Asian Cup) Taiwan, held at the Suwon World Cup Stadium on the 16th. The national team, which became 5 points with 1 win and 2 draws, won the championship trophy in 20 years after the 2005 first tournament.
The East Asian Cup is ranked in the order of winners, confrontation, and multi -scores, if the victory points are the same. The three teams of Japan, China, and Korea were all over the confrontation. In the opponent’s scores, the national team scored three goals in China (2 goals) and Japan (1 goal).
Ji So -yeon was calmly successful in the penalty kick obtained by Kang Chae -rim in the 25th minute. Ji So -yeon, who first won the championship trophy while playing 169 matches, said, “I have been waiting for this moment. I lifted the championship for 20 years in the national team, and I felt that the time was not in vain.”
Ji So -yeon was not happy after the penalty scoring, and after the end of the first half, she had a great deal of colleagues. Ji So -yeon said, “I was so frustrated in the first half. When I scored, I had a perfect scenario of winning, but I seemed to be in a hurry. I shouted at half time. I couldn’t win.
Ji So -yeon performed a ceremony with another veteran Kim Hye -ri (Wuhan) to lift the championship trophy. Ji So -yeon said, “I have only applauded the opposing team for 20 years. No one could have touched the trophy. I ended up talking with the ‘sisters’ coming with the trophy. Beom2@sportsseoul.com
