Jeong Han-min is regrettable even with a draw… “Three options in my head…”

Jeong Han-min was disappointed about the result of the game even though he scored one point with his equalizer.

Seongnam FC drew 2-2 with Kim Cheon in the 12th round of the ‘Hana 1 Q K League 2 2023’ held at Tancheon Sports Complex at 6:30 pm on the 7th. With one point, Seongnam maintained 7th place in the league.

The first half was tough.메이저놀이터 Seongnam allowed Kim Min-joon to score the first goal in the early hours, and faced halftime with a 0-1 trail behind in terms of performance. At the start of the second half, coach Lee Gi-hyung made a big change to the tactics by using three replacement cards. Jeong Han-min was put in at this time.

Director Lee Ki-hyung’s choice was right. Seongnam tied the score early in the second half with Patrick heading the ball from substitute Park Sang-hyeok from a corner kick. However, Kim Cheon was not an easy opponent. In the 14th minute of the second half, Seongnam allowed Kim Dong-hyun to lead again.

Soon, Seongnam struck the balance. The player who gave the valuable equalizer was Jeong Han-min, who was put in as a substitute. In the 19th minute of the second half, a chaotic situation occurred in the Gimcheon box, and the ball that the Gimcheon defense could not properly clear was passed to Jeong Han-min. Jeong Han-min shook the net with a calm finish.

After Jeong Han-min’s equalizer, Seongnam’s momentum rose. Against Kimcheon, we created several good counterattack opportunities. An opportunity also came to Jeong Han-min. At the end of the game, Jeong Han-min had a chance to score an extra goal, but in the end he could not take advantage of this opportunity. The match ended in a 2-2 draw.

After the match, I met Jeong Han-min, the protagonist of the equalizer, in the mixed zone. Jeong Han-min, who trudged along in a disappointing manner, said, “It was physically difficult due to the midweek game, but I think it’s fortunate that I got 1 point.” Especially in the last scene, I should have just shot, but I think I had a lot of thoughts.”

I asked what thoughts passed by in that situation. Jeong Han-min confessed that in that short moment, as many as three thoughts came to his mind. Jeong Han-min said, “There were three things. The first was to shoot, and the second was to dribble sideways. At the end, I thought the opponent would come in, so I decided on the third option. It’s quite unfortunate.”

There was a reason why Jung Han-min was sorry. It was because if Seongnam had won this game, they could have prepared a foothold to rise to the top. Jeong Han-min said, “In the meantime, we had many opportunities to rise to the top, but we couldn’t take advantage of those chances. So while preparing for this game, I thought a lot that if we won today, we could rise to the top. It’s a pity that it stopped.”

He continued, “Still, I think it was positive that we were able to follow such a strong team to the end and draw because Kimcheon is a team that is at the top and is a team that is superior in many ways, including technical aspects, than us.”When asked which player was the most difficult, Jeong Han-min replied, “All of them were difficult.” When asked to pick a specific player, Jeong Han-min mentioned Ji-hyun Kim, saying, “I saw Ji-hyun Kim on the bench today, and Ji-hyun Kim played the role of a link, so I thought it would be good for me to learn as well.” Kim Ji-hyeon showed a good performance throughout the game, including sending a decisive pass in the scene of Kim Min-joon’s opening goal that day and earning help.
