[Asian Games] Lee Kang-in, Who Has No Attack Points Yet, Will he do ‘One Thing’ at the End?

 

 

 

The explosion of firepower played an absolute role in "Hwang Seon-hongho", who participated in the men"s soccer match at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, running unstoppably to the finals.

During the six games played, only two goals were conceded, while 11 players scored 25 goals together, making them worthy of being considered the "best team" in soccer in this tournament so far.

Led by Jeong Woo-young (Stuttgart), the tournament"s leading scorer with seven goals, Baek Seung-ho (Jeonbuk), Hong Hyun-seok (Gent), and Jo Young-wook (Gimcheon) added three goals each, while Ahn Jae-jun (Bucheon)

Eom Won-sang (Ulsan) added two goals each. It is also encouraging that the players scored goals evenly.

This is a record that was accumulated while the national team"s best star, Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain), has not yet scored a single attack point.

In the finals, which will be held as a "fateful Korea-Japan match" at the Huanglong Sports Center Stadium in Hangzhou, China, starting at 9 PM (Korean time) on the 7th, Hwang Seon-hong is looking forward to Lee Kang-in"s "fiery climax".

Lee Kang-in, a leading star of Korean soccer who has already experienced the World Cup stage as a member of the adult national team, has been mentioned as if he had already reserved a spot even before his Asian Games entry was confirmed, and was on board as expected, but there were twists and turns before he actually stepped on this stage.

He joined France"s prestigious Paris Saint-Germain and spent the early part of the season receiving great attention, but suddenly suffered a left quadriceps injury.

He recovered quickly and entered China on the 21st of last month, when the national team played the second group match against Thailand (4-0 win).

He returned to the third match against Bahrain on the 24th of last month, after already being confirmed to advance to the round of 16 by finishing first in the group.

3-0 win.

He was used as a starter for the first time in this competition.

Lee Kang-in, who checked his actual condition for 36 minutes in the first half, started as a starter for the first time in the round of 16 against Kyrgyzstan (5-1 win) on the 27th of last month and played until 15 minutes in the second half, and played until the 15th minute of the second half in the quarterfinals against China (2-0 win) on the 1st.

N started on the bench again and entered the field as a substitute midway through the second half.

In the semifinal against Uzbekistan on the 4th (2-1 win), he returned as a starter and played until the 14th minute of the second half.

Usually placed in the center of the second line, he showed flashes of his individual skills, including his unique exquisite pressure in the game against Uzbekistan, but has not yet led to an offensive point.

Still, the fact that he has shown his true value as an offensive point player in tournaments makes it impossible to let go of expectations until the final game.

A representative example is that at the 2019 U-20 World Cup, he scored 2 goals and 4 assists, led Korea to the final and runner-up for the first time in the history of a men"s competition organized by the Federation of International Football Associations (FIFA), and won the Golden Ball, the best player.

At that time, he scored 1 goal and 2 assists in the quarterfinals against Senegal, and shined in important times, such as assisting Choi Jun (Busan)"s winning goal with a quick ground ball pass during a free kick situation in the semifinals against Ecuador.

Although it is not possible to simply compare the U-20 World Cup and the Asian Games, it is clear that Lee Kang-in is a player who can do "one thing" when the team needs it in a big game.

In addition, the fact that this final is a game with great significance for continuing his career in Europe will further increase Lee Kang-in"s motivation.

After the semifinal victory against Uzbekistan, Lee Kang-in expressed his will to win, saying, "I hope there will be a good result in the final.

I will work hard," and "I will do my best to help the team win no matter how many minutes I play."

[Asian Games] North Korea’s ‘Artistic Gymnastics Goddess’ is Born... Ahn Chang-ok Drew Gasps From the Crowd

 

 

 

 

Artistic gymnastics vault and double parallel bars gold medal... After shooting, followed by gold veins

 

North Korea, which participated in the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, continued its reputation as a "gymnastics powerhouse" by adding two gold medals in artistic gymnastics.

 

Ahn Chang-ok (20) won gold medals in both the artistic gymnastics women"s vault and double parallel bars finals held at the Huanglong Sports Center Gymnasium in Hangzhou, China on the 28th.

 

The vault received an average of 14.049 points in the first and second periods, and the double parallel bars scored 14.266, easily beating the competitors.

 

Another North Korean athlete, Kim Seon-hyang, scored 13.600 points in the vault, giving North Korea gold and silver medals in this event.

 

Ahn Chang-ok previously won a bronze medal with her colleagues in the women"s artistic gymnastics team finals held on the 25th.

 

On this day, North Korea broke from its gold medal drought by winning a gold medal in the "10m Running Target Women"s Team Event" in shooting, as well as two gold medals in artistic gymnastics.

 

The North Korean artistic gymnasts competed in a much brighter atmosphere than the athletes in other sports ahead of them, with confidence in their abilities and the news of their first gold medal in women"s shooting that had just been announced.

 

Kim Seon-hyang, who went first in her vault event, gave the camera a thumbs up with a smiling expression after finishing her performance and held hands with the other athletes next to her.

 

When Ahn Chang-ok received a high score, he smiled brightly as if he knew he would win the gold medal, and his coach hugged him and encouraged him.

 

When her gold medal was confirmed in the double parallel bars competition, she smiled brightly and seemed to share her joy with her colleagues.

 

Six to seven North Korean players arrived early in the tournament bleachers, waving small North Korean flags and cheering on the players in loud voices.

 

However, the North Korean players we met in the joint coverage area (mixed zone) almost ran around to avoid questions.

 

Ahn Chang-ok, born in 2003, who competed in the Asian Games for the first time, is expected to play a role as the "future" of North Korean women"s artistic gymnastics in the future.

 

She ranked 10th to 20th on the international stage for the first time in 2019, and this competition proved her top-level skills in Asia.

 

On this day, the audience unanimously burst into exclamations of admiration as they repeatedly demonstrated difficult techniques in the two sports.

 

North Korea has traditionally been strong in artistic gymnastics, and its gymnastics hero Ri Se-gwang, known as the "god of vault", is especially famous.

 

Ri Se-gwang"s contributions were recognized in North Korea and he was awarded the titles of "People"s Athlete" and "Effort Hero".

 

Ri Se-gwang, who has been a member of the North Korean national team since 2003, won the gold medal in vault at the 2006 Doha Asian Games, and then won the vault twice in a row at the 2014 Nanning, China, and 2015 World Gymnastics World Championships in Glasgow, England, making his name as a champion.

 

At the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, Ri Se-kwang showed off her overwhelming skills in the vault finals and became the third North Korean gymnast to win an Olympic gold medal.

 

Ri Se-gwang"s high-level technique of lifting the vault to the side, spinning two times, then twisting one round before landing is also listed in the International Gymnastics Federation"s vault scoring rules.

 

Here, Hong Eun-jeong, known as North Korea"s "gymnastics fairy", cannot be left out.

 

He won the gold medal in the vault event at the 2008 Beijing Olympics ahead of Ri Se-gwang, and also won the same event at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games.

Daejeon KT-Hanwha DH 2nd Game Resumes After 3 Hours and 24 Minutes, The Longest in History

Due to the cancellation of 85 games, the most ever this season, it was forced to go ahead after a long period of maintenance.

In the second game of the double header between Hanwha Eagles and KT Wiz held at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon on the 17th, the longest game in history was suspended and then resumed. casinositeone

In this game, with KT leading 3-1, the game was stopped in the bottom of the 5th inning due to heavy rain pouring down at first base with no hits from Hanwha"s attack.

The referees, who expressed their intention to resume the game if possible, came out to the ground several times and checked the rain conditions under the rain.

Eventually, as the rain gradually subsided, the referee requested ground maintenance to resume the game.

However, it took much more time than expected to renovate the extremely wet ground.

Some fans who were tired of waiting in the stands were also seen leaving.

After lengthy ground maintenance, the game was declared to resume at 9:57 p.m.

It took a whopping 204 minutes after the game was stopped at 6:33 p.m.

Since the launch of the KBO League, there has been no case where a game was suspended for more than 3 hours and then resumed.

The previous longest game suspension occurred for 116 minutes during the Samsung-Binggrae game at Daejeon Stadium on August 15, 1987.

The reason the referees waited for more than three hours on this day to push ahead with the game was because so many games this season were canceled due to rain.

The number of games canceled until the day before was as many as 85, the most ever.

The KBO announced a rescheduled schedule of canceled games on August 29, but since that day, as many as 19 games have been canceled again, causing a major disruption to the entire schedule.
