◇ Q&A with Hwang Hee-chan
-It was a tough game. I won.
▶I knew the results were important even before the final qualifying round. I told you before today's game, but I think we brought results and there were positive scenes, but I'm very happy that we brought results. I think we got three really important points, so I think it was a game that could help us move forward.
-The position was different. What kind of order did you have.
▶First of all, the director ordered a lot of connecting plays with (Son) Heung-min and (Oh) Se-hoon, and me, (Lee) Kang-in, and (Hwang) In-beom all ordered a lot of connecting plays.
You've also mentioned a lot about the back part and the part where you connect while receiving the ball at the pocket position. I think those parts came out well today. Of course, it's the second game, so we need to improve, but I think it was good in the goal scene where the most important result came out and there were a lot of good scenes, so we'll keep those parts alive. Since there are so many good players, I think it's a game that we have to show our fans in the future to continue to create more good scenes like that.
-I haven't done that much on the spot.
▶I haven't run that much just like 10 seats.But during the pre-season this time, I continued to play on the spot in the team,/ And most of the seats above the offense have been running since I was young. I think we talked a lot about that with the director.
The director told us a lot about that in detail. During the game, we talked about the break time and things like that. I think the parts where we can move more organically came out well.
-The extra time was 16 minutes.
▶I think it was actually a little longer than I thought. Anyway, we kept attacking to score more goals, and I think that's the direction we're moving forward. No matter how much additional time we have, we will play to win until the end. Of course, as we showed you today, there are parts that brought the results. Regardless of whether we have a lot of extra time or not, we want to do our best to win until the end. We want to play more games that can be the final qualifying round.
