National striker Oh Hyun-kyu (24, KRC Genk) shook the net twice in three minutes.
KRC Genk defeated Hent 4-0 in the first round of the Belgian main pillar professional league championship group of the 2024-2025 season at Chegeka Arena in Genk, Belgium on the 31st (Korea time).
With 37 points, Genk is one step closer to winning the championship. He is now four points shorter than runner-up Kluff Brugher (33 points). In the main pillar league, Genk will advance to the championship round with half of the points each of the top six teams earned up to the 30th round. If Genk remains in the lead, he will become the first player to win the title for the first time since the 2018-2019 season.
Genk started off somewhat nervously on the day. He missed penalty kicks in the 15th minute and the 23rd minute in the first half, failing to take advantage of his chances. If things turn out badly, the mood could be passed to the opponent team.
Fortunately, Konstantinos Carrejas scored the first goal at the 38th minute to take a 1-0 lead. It was literally the third period of two matches. On top of that, striker Tolu Arcodare scored an additional goal at the fifth minute of the second half, driving the team to a 2-0 lead.
It was Oh who finished the game. Pink Genk coach Thorsten Sink deployed Oh in place of Arcodare at the 25th minute of the second half. This became a "God's move" to destroy Hent, who fought back.
In the 43rd minute of the second half, Oh Hyun-kyu connected the ball handed over by Patrick Hrosovski with a non-stop shot to break the net. Oh's strong shooting power, which is his strength, was a brilliant score.
This was not the end of the game. Oh shook the net once again in three minutes to seal the match. One minute in extra time in the second half, he made strides by himself from behind the center line and started counterattack. He also precisely finished off Krosovskiy's grounder cross and scored multiple goals.
The match ended with Genk's 4-0 victory. Fink, who recently renewed his contract indefinitely with the team, said, "After missing two penalty kicks, I felt it became a bit difficult. It was a bit of a blow, but I didn't bow down due to his high mentality that he has shown throughout this season," adding, "We have two away matches left. We will give everything again."
He is Oh Hyun-kyu, who has become a "super Joker" under Pink this season. Wearing a Genk uniform last summer, Oh has scored 12 goals and one assist in 33 official matches, 온라인바카라 contributing to his team's bid to win the title.
What's especially amazing is that Oh only plays for 691 minutes in all competitions. He played 27 games in the league but made only two starts. Despite this, he has only two goals left before his career high (14 goals) that he recorded at Suwon Samsung in the 2022 season.
