Choo Hyo-joo (22) perfectly digested the special order.
The Korean women’s soccer team, led by head coach Colin Bell, won 5-2 in a match against the Zambia women’s soccer team in an A-match hosted by Shinsegae E-Mart at the Suwon World Cup Stadium on the 7th. Both teams will have a return match at Yongin Mir Stadium on the 11th.
Choo Hyo-joo, a side resource, is a player who can play both wing forward and wing back. His unique dribbling and footing skills are a nightmare for opposing defenders. It reminds me of the play of Eden Azar in its heyday, not the current Eden Azar.
On this day, Hyo-Joo Choo played as a left wingback in the 3-5-1-1 formation. Choo Hyo-joo collapsed Zambia’s side in a free one-on-one until the formation change due to Lim Seon-joo’s injury. It is a tactic reminiscent of basketball’s isolation tactic, and Hyo-joo Choo was at the center of it. After that, he played the role of right fullback and showed perfect performance.
After the match, Hyo-joo Choo talked about her confident 1-on-1, saying, “(The coach) wants to go forward unconditionally. He wants to do 1-on-1. He told me to use the inside (by digging) if I opened it wide. I actively tried it.” 안전놀이터
Choo Hyo-joo is one of the young resources that Bell is exploding his potential. Regarding this, Hyo-joo Choo said, “I am grateful that the coach picked me (on the list) from a young age and allowed me to play anywhere, and I think I will work harder.”
Lastly, Hyo-joo Choo said, “My goal for this year is the World Cup season. Even if I go to the World Cup, I want to aim for the round of 16 with the team like last year’s men’s national team and challenge for greater achievements. I will personally take care of my body well.” he added.
