Jeonbuk Hyundai's new foreign striker Andrea Compagno (29) made a strong impression from his debut. In the first leg of the round of 16 of the 2024-2025 Asian Champions League 2 (ACL2) against Port FC (Thailand), he scored multiple goals only with a header, contributing to Jeonbuk's 4-0 victory.
The first goal was scored in the 24th minute of the first half. With Jeonbuk leading 1-0, Park Jin-seop's cross from the right side was connected with a sensational header in front of the goal to break the net. In the 15th minute of the second half, Kim Tae-hwan neatly handled the cross from the right side with a solo header at the gate and scored once again.
The record is two goals, but it actually contributed to all four goals that Jeonbuk gained. Park Jin-seop's first goal in the 11th minute of the first half was the starting point of Compagno's header in a competition for the gate. The ball went through Lee Seung-woo's head and connected to Park Jin-seop, who was rushing to the gate. In the fourth minute of the second half, with Lee Young-jae catching the ball at the right end line, Compagno competed with the opposing defender to create an empty space, and Song Min-gyu, who was rushing to the gate, scored with a header. Compagno was replaced by Park Jae-yong in the 24th minute of the second half to complete his debut.
Jeonbuk coach Gus Foye deployed Compagno to the one-top spot and actively utilized it. The build-up and ball possession shone through the bold forward path. Compagno was able to create synergy while taking full control of the right to provide on the front line.

Compagno, who made his debut successfully, will once again be on the verification stage. The first round of the 2025 K League 1 against Gimcheon Sangmu, which will be held at Jeonju World Cup Stadium on the 16th, will be the stage. Unlike Port FC, which was inferior in height, players in the Gimcheon defense have faced several foreign strikers of the same type as Compagno. Whether Compagno, who had a high effect in the match against Port FC, can break down the Gimcheon defense with his feet is expected to be the key to his future performance. Compagno "Now we have to think about the Gimcheon war. I will concentrate on the next game."
