Wolverhampton has fallen into a swamp of losing consecutive games. Hwang Hee-chan, who returned from injury, played as a substitute for three consecutive games, but failed to prevent his team's complete defeat.

Wolverhampton suffered a 0-4 defeat in the 14th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in 2024-2025 season against Everton at Goodison Park in Liverpool, England on the 5th (Korea time). Wolverhampton, who lost to Bournemouth 2-4 on the 1st, suffered the humiliation of allowing four goals in two consecutive games.

At this rate, it will be demoted. Wolverhampton dropped to 19th place with nine points (2 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses). Everton, who escaped from winless (3 draws and 2 losses) in five consecutive games, succeeded in turning the tables by rising to 15th place (14 points, 3 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses).



It was the other day of self-destruction. Wolverhampton allowed Everton veteran defender Ashley Young a free-kick goal just 10 minutes into the first half. Six minutes later, James Tacowski scored a header from a free kick. Fortunately, as a result of VAR (video reading), it was judged to be offside of defense interference and swept the chest.

But there was no reversal. Wolverhampton was penetrated again in the 33rd minute with a mid-range shot by Orel Mangala. In the second half, Craig Dawson's `Multi Own Goal' collapsed on his own.



Dawson's ball, which was hit in the arm in the fourth minute of the second half, was sucked into the goal. In the 27th minute of the second half, he stretched his legs to block Everton Dwight McNeil's free kick, and even this ball was hit by the sole of his right foot and headed to the corner of the net. Wolverhampton was devastated.

Hwang Hee-chan was called in the 12th minute of the second half when his team was trailing 0-3. He missed four league games after injuring his ankle in an A-match in October. Hwang Hee-chan returned from the 12th round against Fulham, which won a 4-1 victory on the 24th of last month. He was put in during the second half of injury time.



His playing time increased a little against Bournemouth. He was transfused in the 37th minute of the second half. In the match against Everton, he played 33 minutes of regular time. However, there was no point of attack. However, expectations for a return to the starting lineup have been raised.

According to soccer statistics 'Foot Mob', Hwang Hee-chan touched the ball 24 times, recording a 94% pass success rate. Tackle success was recorded twice, but there were no notable attack indicators. The rating was 6.5. The full text of soccer statistics 'HuscoordCom' gave Hwang Hee-chan a 6.17 rating.

Wolverhampton will play West Ham in the 15th round on the road on the 10th.
