Kang Sang -yoon and Lee Ho -jae A match debut goal… Hong Myung Protection, Hong Kong defeated 2 consecutive wins
The Korean soccer team led by Hong Myung -bo won the weakness of Hong Kong. However, he struggled with his opponent’s dense defense.
Korea won 2-0 with Kang Sang-yun (Jeonbuk) and Lee Ho-jae (Pohang) in the match against Hong Kong in the second leg of the 2025 East Asian Football Federation (East Asian Cup) in Yongin Mirstadium, Gyeonggi-do. Korea has won two consecutive victories (3-0).
The “test war” declared by Hong Myung -bo continued in the Hong Kong War following the Chinese War.
Hong came out with a starting lineup that was completely different from the first leg. Through a bold experiment to change all 11 people who started in the last game, they set fire to infinite competition in the national team.
The three -back tactics operated in the Chinese War were maintained. Byun Jun -su (Gwangju), signing hall (Ulsan), and Kim Tae -hyun (Kashima) were in charge of the central defense, and Cho Hyun -taek (Ulsan) and Kim Tae -hyun (Jeonbuk) attacked Hong Kong. Na Sang -ho (Machida) and Lee Ho -jae were arranged in the forefront and led the attack, and Lee Seung -won (Kimcheon), Seo Min -woo (Gangwon) and Kang Sang -yun kept Jungwon. The goalkeeper gloves were worn by Lee Chang -geun (Daejeon).
Korea has been strongly pressed from Hong Kong from the beginning, but it was frustrated by the crowded defense. The first half of Korea’s ball market share was 72%, but Hong Kong’s deeply defensive line did not create a certain opportunity. In the midst of a sluggish situation, Korea breathe with Kang Sang -yun’s first goal. Kang Sang -yun scored by connecting Seo Min -woo’s pass from the front of the goal area with a right -footed turning shot. This is a debut goal that I tasted in two matches.
Korea won the victory with Lee Ho -jae’s additional goal in the second half of the 21st minute. Lee Ho -jae finished the ball from the left side of Moon Sun -min (Seoul), who was replaced in the second half, and made his A -match debut goal. South Korea has been unilaterally attacked, but has not been able to add a goal because it is blocked by Hong Kong defense.
Korea will hold the final match against Japan on the 15th, which is in fact the final. Japan won Hong Kong 6-1 on the 8th and played a second leg against China on the 12th.
