Yang Hyun-joon, who was born in 2002, has shown his best performance since joining Celtic (Scotland). Celtic, led by head coach Brandon Rogers, won a 5-0 home match against the Rays at Celtic Park in Glasgow, Scotland, on the 9th (Korea time) in the fifth round of the 2024-2025 season of the Scottish Cup. With the victory, Celtic advanced to the quarterfinals. Celtic, who are defending champions and boast the most wins (42) ever, continued their challenge to win for the third time in a row and 43rd time in their career.
Yang Hyun-jun was at the center of the victory. He started as a left-hander on the day. He played 65 minutes until the 20th minute of the second half, scoring one goal and two assists. Yang Hyun-joon helped Daizen Maeda score in the extra time of the first half when his team was leading 1-0. Yang Hyun-joon, who received a space pass from the midfield, quickly fell with his left foot near the left side of the penalty arc and connected the ball to Maeda, who was rushing to the other side. Maeda tasted the goal with her right foot in front of the goal area. Yang Hyun-joon helped Luke McCawone score a wedge goal in the second minute of the second half. McCawone converted a left-footed cross that Yang Hyun-joon put into the right corner of the penalty area from the front of the net to his right foot to score. It was Yang Hyun-jun's multi-help moment. Yang Hyun-joon, who gained momentum, watched 'Taste of Goal' in the 11th minute of the second half. He dug in Anthony Ralston's cross from the right side to the left of the goal area and connected it with a right non-stop shot to score. Yang Hyun-joon has accumulated two goals and three assists (including one goal and one assist in the regular league) in 21 official games this season.
Yang Hyun-joon will aim for the European Champions League (UCL) playoff (PO) home game against Bayern Munich (Germany) on the 13th. The game is predicted to have a possibility of 'Korean Derby' on this day. Attention is drawn to the match between Yang Hyun-joon and Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich).
