(By Top News Editorial Team) Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), who recently faced racial discrimination, scored a goal in a practice match to ease the pain.
Hwang scored a goal against Bristol City (England) in a closed-door practice match at the Compton Park Training Ground in Wolverhampton, England, on Tuesday (Nov. 20), helping Wolverhampton to a 3-0 victory.
Earlier, Hwang was called a racist “Jackie Chan” by an opposing player during a scrimmage against Como 1907 (Italy) in Marbella, Spain, on April 16.
The incident escalated to the point where teammate Daniel Podense was sent off for punching the opponent, and Hwang finished the match.
The players returned to Wolverhampton’s training ground after the Spain tour, and later in the day, they took part in a practice match against Bristol City of the English Championship (Second Division), which consisted of four 30-minute quarters.
Wolverhampton opened the scoring when Mateusz Cunha scored with a right-footed strike from just outside the penalty area.
Hwang Hee-chan added the second goal.
After waiting on the bench in the first and second quarters, Hwang came on in the third quarter and tapped home a Pablo Sarabia cross seven minutes into the game after the goalkeeper failed to get a good grip on it.
Wolverhampton completed the 3-0 win 10 minutes later with an own goal from an opposing defender. 파워볼사이트
