Shin Sung midfielder Lee Hyun-joo (21, Hanover), who made his national team debut through A Match Day in November, scored his second goal of the season as soon as he returned to his team.

In a corner kick situation, the opposing goalkeeper hit the ball headed by Hanover Phil Norman in front of the gate, but Lee Hyun-joo calmly pushed it in front of the goal. Lee Hyun-joo made a smart and quick rush toward the goal, as if he had predicted the next situation in advance.
Lee Hyun-joo, who came on loan from Bayern Munich to Hanover for a season this season, scored his debut goal against Kaiserslautern in September and then scored his second goal of the season in more than two months.

Lee Hyun-joo, who established a solid position to start 10 of the 13 games his team played, started as a left midfielder in the 4-4-2 formation on the same day and actively played on the ground for 77 minutes until he was replaced by Lars Gindorf in the 32nd minute of the second half.
Lee Hyun-joo's replacement came after the team dedicated the winning goal to Fabian Nuremberg in the 27th minute of the second half.
Hanover, which had maintained a good pace enough to run second in the league, failed to regain the lead after losing 1-3 away to Elvesberg before the A-match day and losing two consecutive games.
Lee Hyun-joo was selected for the first time as a soccer A team led by head coach Hong Myung-bo based on his consistent performance at Hanover this season and made an emotional debut on the 14th by replacing the fifth game (3-1 wins) of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup against Kuwait.
Coach Hong highly values the versatile Lee Hyun-joo's ability to make a difference by flashing plays in a narrow space.
