[엑스포츠뉴스 김희웅 인턴기자] Jung Woo-young (Freiburg) performed his best against Borussia Dortmund.
Jung Woo-young scored one goal in the match against Dortmund in Round 20 of the German Bundesliga in the 2020/21 season held at Schwarzwald-Stadion in Freiburg, Germany on the 6th (Korean time), leading the team’s 2-1 victory.
Freiburg scored 8 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses in the league and reached 8th place with 30 points.
On this day, Jung Woo-young started as the right midfielder in the 4-4-2 formation. In the 25th minute of the second half, until he was replaced by Harvey, he tormented the defense of Dortmund with his active moves. His toe sensations such as passing and shooting were also sharp.
In the 9th minute of the first half, Jung Woo-young received a pass from a teammate from outside the box and hit a powerful right-footed shot through the Dortmund goal. Although it did not lead to a goal, the goalkeeper could not reliably defend even though it was a head-on ball.
Both teams aimed at each other’s goal in the first half. Dortmund’s possession of the ball was long, and Freibruck intermittently launched counterattacks. However, Dortmund struggled to break through the slightly lowered defense of Freiburg, and Freiburg was also disappointed with the final finish in the counterattack situation. In the end, the first half ended without a goal.
In the 4th minute of the second half, which was tense at 0-0, Jung Woo-young came out as a solution. Jung Woo-young, who received a pass from Vincenzo Griffo, shook the Dortmund goal with a thunderous left-footed shot. Although there was a little distance, the impact was excellent and the goalkeeper was difficult to use as the shot was a shot without rotation.
Freiburg, which brought the atmosphere to Jung Woo-young’s first goal, struck the bee corps violently. In the 6th minute of the second half, Jonathan Schmidt’s shot from the outside corner of the box on the right was sucked into the close post.
Afterwards, Freiburg conceded a goal to the leading member Mukoko, who came in as a substitute in the 31st minute of the second half, but gained 3 points by building a solid defensive wall.
More than anyone else, the main character of this day was Jung Woo-young. Football statistics media, Whoscore, acknowledged his performance by giving Jung Woo-young the highest rating of 7.9 points for both teams.
The media also raised their thumb. “Jung Woo-young brought the victory,” said the strong German kicker. The English version of the German Bundesliga official website said, “Wooyeong Jeong was proving the lynchpin in attack for Freiburg.”
