Finally, Hwang Hee-chan (28, Wolverhampton) is back.
Wolverhampton had a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest in the '33rd round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (PL) at Nottingham City Ground in England at 11 p.m. on the 13th.
Wolverhampton had no wins (two draws and three losses) in five consecutive games, falling to 11th place in the league. Wolverhampton was also pushed back by just three points from the relegation zone group.
There is good news, at least. It was the return of ace Hwang Hee-chan. Hwang was out of the lineup after injuring his hamstring in a home match against Brighton in the round of 16 teams at the FA Cup on Feb. 29. Hwang was listed for the first time in two months.
Hwang Hee-chan, who had been waiting in the list of players, was replaced by Matt Doherty in the 14th minute of the second half when his team was trailing 1-2. He spent about 40 minutes on the ground until the final whistle blew.
Wolverhampton, which has been in a long slump, has returned to a hopeful mood just with Hwang Hee-chan's return. Wolverhampton's official website released a photo of Hwang Hee-chan's return to the training ground, saying, "Hwang Hee-chan has finally returned."
Fans are excited, too. "The mere fact Hwang Hee-chan is back is fantastic news," the Football Fancast said. "He started off the bench without starting, but Wolverhampton gained a lot of momentum. Hwang has scored 11 goals in 24 games. Not many strikers in the Premier League are as strong as that," he said, welcoming Hwang's return.
Hwang was listed in the top five before getting hurt. "Hwang Hee-chan scored more points than Diogo Jota and Julián Álvarez before getting hurt. Hwang will show the difference once again," the Football Fancast said. 토토사이트
