who had been worried about his position just a few days ago, shook up the competition for the starting position. Celtic coach Brandon Rogers, who had ignored Oh Hyun-gyu for no clear reason, also unusually praised Oh Hyun-gyu.
Oh Hyun-kyu came on as a substitute in the 29th minute of the second half of the 2023-2024 Scottish Premiership round 11 home game against St. Mirren held at Celtic Park in Glasgow, Scotland on the 2nd (Korean time) when the team was tied 1-1, and scored the winning goal in the 38th minute, giving the team 2nd place. He won with -1.
With Oh Hyun-gyu's goal, Celtic continued their undefeated streak in the opening 11 games (9 wins, 2 draws) and firmly maintained their lead in the league with 29 points.
They scored the first goal in the 7th minute of the first half, but gave up an equalizer in the 18th minute, and a 1-1 draw was expected.
As expected, Oh Hyun-gyu, who was brought in in the second half, was not given much time. Nevertheless, Oh Hyun-gyu zeroed in with a bold header and finally scored his first goal in the opening 11 games of the league. In the 38th minute of the second half, Oh Hyun-gyu received a penetrating pass from Odin Holm and hit the net with an exciting right-footed shot from the center of the box.
This is the goal I have been waiting for and waiting for. Oh Hyun-gyu contributed greatly to winning the league title last season by scoring 6 goals in 16 games, but this season was different. Coach Brandon Rogers took over and lost his position to Japanese attackers.
In a total of 10 games, including the league and the UEFA Champions League (UCL), there was not a single selection, and the total playing time was 141 minutes, and the average playing time was only 14 minutes.
It was Japanese players who found Oh Hyun-gyu’s place. Kyogo *********, the top scorer who scored 27 goals last season, is Celtic's key striker. He appeared as a starter in all 11 league games this season and scored 5 goals.
This season, dependence on Daizen Maeda has also increased. He appeared in 35 games (25 starts) last season and scored eight goals. However, with Oh Hyun-gyu scoring 6 goals in 16 games and only 3 opportunities as a starter, there was a view that things would change a lot this season.
However, it exceeded expectations. It all started when coach Enze Postecoglou, who pushed for Oh Hyun-gyu's recruitment and saw the results, left for Tottenham Hotspur this summer. The newly appointed coach Rogers trusted and used Japanese players. Maeda has only two goals, but has appeared in 11 games (10 as a starter).
With Yang Hyun-jun, who had high expectations that they would create a synergy effect together, they ended up sharing the opportunity.
In the UCL group stage match with Atletico Madrid on the 26th of last month, Celtic drew 2-2. More goals were needed, but Coach Rogers replaced ********* and Luis Enrique Palma and brought in a midfielder and defender instead of Oh Hyun-gyu.
Coach Rogers' choice became an issue locally. Britain's tbrfootball quoted former Celtic defender Mark Wilson's remarks on the 31st and said, "Rodgers' selection of James Forrest over Oh Hyun-gyu as a bench member was a kind of message to Oh Hyun-gyu."
“It shows that Rodgers doesn’t think Oh Hyun-kyu is a player who can exceed expectations in important situations like when Celtic need a goal,” Wilson said. “Oh Hyun-kyu was the only striker on the bench that day who was recognized, but Rodgers was "I didn't look at him. I think that means a lot," he added.
Oh Hyeon-gyu, who usually has a strong competitive spirit, was also fierce. He made his SNS account private, hinting that he would focus more on his training.
After the game that day, Coach Rogers' thoughts seemed to have changed somewhat. Rodgers praised Oh Hyun-kyu, saying, "It's a huge credit to how the substitutes take care of themselves and how they train to influence the game. The second goal was a fantastic play."
“I am very happy with the goal that ‘Big Oh’ scored with a great finish,” he said. “Oh Hyun-gyu made a great choice even though he did not have many opportunities. ‘Big Guy’ caught the excellent pass and finished successfully. “I did,” he said.
The praise didn't end there. Coach Rogers also acknowledged that Oh Hyun-gyu is not getting many opportunities. Therefore, it was an even more satisfying performance.
“I’m very pleased with how he plays so hard and takes care of his body,” Rodgers said. “He puts in the extra effort with his coaches so he can be ready when he gets into the game.”
Oh Hyun-gyu also expressed satisfaction. In an interview with the club after the game, he said in English, "I'm happy I scored a goal. It's unbelievable. It's a very special goal. I want to thank my family, fans, teammates, and coaching staff."
SNS was also reopened. He posted “believe in yourself” and expressed satisfaction with his performance despite difficult circumstances.
Kim Min-jae's fatal mistake 'aftereffects'..

or Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich), the last German Football Association (DFB) Pokal FC Saarbrücken (3rd Division) match remained a nightmare. After receiving the 'lowest' rating in local media ratings, even manager Thomas Tuchel criticized Kim Min-jae's mistake, which was the excuse for conceding the equalizer.
Kim Min-jae received a rating of 6 from German media Bild immediately after the second round of the 2023-24 DFB Pokal against Saarbrücken held at the Ludwigspark Stadion in Saarbrücken, Germany on the 2nd (Korean time). Ratings from German media outlets such as Bild and Kicker are classified from 1 to 6, with lower numbers indicating better performance. Kim Min-jae received the lowest rating the media could give. On this day, Kim Min-jae played full-time as a starter and showed his presence with a 92% pass success rate, 67% aerial duel winning rate, and 3 clearances, but he made fatal mistakes when conceding the equalizer in extra time in the first half. The problem was that he passed from the defensive area to the midfield instead of the side. Kim Min-jae's pass was directed to 2003-born midfielder Frans Kretzig in the midfield, but the pass was aimed at an ambiguous speed and even Kretzig did not move actively, losing possession due to the opponent's pressure.
Afterwards, during the opponent's counterattack, Kim Min-jae attempted a tackle to prevent the previous mistake, but unfortunately even the tackle attempt failed, giving the opponent an even more decisive opportunity. Ultimately, this scene led to Bayern Munich conceding the equalizer, and Bayern Munich even conceded a comeback
It was also a scene where Kim Min-jae, who was exhausted enough to play full-time as a starter in 11 consecutive official games recently, had no choice but to momentarily lose concentration. Due to a series of mistakes that were uncharacteristic of Kim Min-jae, German media outlet Bild eventually responded with the lowest rating. Among the Bayern Munich players on this day, only Kim Min-jae and Alphonso Davis received the worst rating of 6 points. Defender Matthijs Delicht, who was substituted in the 25th minute of the first half when the team was ahead 1-0, actually received the highest rating in the team with a rating of 3.
It wasn't just Built's lowest rating. German media SPOX said, “Kim Min-jae was a decisive factor in Bayern Munich’s elimination from the DFB Pokal. He criticized, “The clumsy pass to Krezig ultimately led to Bayern Munich’s first goal.” Even coach Tuchel expressed regret over Kim Min-jae's choice of pass, saying, "It was definitely not a good decision to pass to Kretzig, who was under pressure (by the opposing player)."
On this day, Bayern Munich scored the first goal with Thomas Müller's mid-range shot in the 16th minute of the first half, but conceded the equalizer in extra time of the first half. Afterwards, they conceded a come-from-behind goal to Marcel Gauss at the end of extra time in the second half, losing 1-2 and being eliminated from the second round of the DFB Pokal. On this day, Bayern Munich allowed only one shot in the second half, and this shot led to the comeback goal being conceded. Bayern Munich's challenge for a treble (triple crown) was also canceled due to elimination from the DFB Pokal. The remaining competitions are the German Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League.
