The next goal of Ju Min-gyu (35) of the Daejeon Hana Citizen, who has scored 100 goals in the K-League 1, is to win the title. "I will bet everything," he said.
Joo Min-kyu scored the winning goal in the 10th round of Hana Bank K League 1 2025 between Daejeon and Gangwon FC at Daejeon World Cup Stadium on the 27th, leading the team to a 1-0 victory.
Joo Min-gyu, who was deployed to the front line on the day, did not have a significant opportunity throughout the first half, but he hit a corner kick from Kim Hyun-wook in the 29th minute of the second half with his head. He enjoyed the Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) ceremony by jumping with Kim Hyun-wook and stretching his fingers forward. Daejeon, which had one win, one draw and two losses on its home turf earlier, broke the evaluation that it was somewhat sluggish at home.
Joo Min-kyu, who led the valuable victory, smiled, saying, "Every game is important, but I'm happy to win at home for the first time in a long time. There were not many wins at home, but with today's opportunity, I built up the confidence to continue my winning streak."
By scoring goals on the day, Joo has secured 100 goals in the K-League 1. Only Lee Dong-gook (213 goals in 506 matches), Dejan (184 goals in 351 matches), and Kim Shin-wook (116 goals in 327 matches) have scored more than 100 goals in the top league in Korea. Joo Min-gyu, who first took the first stage as a member of Sangju Sangmu (currently Gimcheon Sangmu) in 2017, played 222 K-League games through Ulsan HD, Jeju SK, and Daejeon, scoring 100 goals and 26 assists.
"I am honored to become the fourth player in the K-League with a high-quality and 40-year-old history. I think there is a big difference between scoring my 100th goal or starting the next season after this year's end. I am glad to become the fourth player to score 100 goals. I will prepare to break the record by scoring more goals in the future," he said.
In fact, when asked about his next goal, Joo Min-kyu, who had no "100th goal" in his head, said with strength, "I'm going to try everything to win the Daejeon."
Although the team competed to stay in the league last year, "winning" is not a dream that they cannot achieve. Daejeon (23 points), which has seven wins (two draws and two losses) in the opening 11 games of this season, is five points ahead of second-ranked Jeonbuk Hyundai (18 points). Although it is an awkward lead, it is familiar to Joo Min-gyu, who tasted the top place in the league twice at Ulsan.
Joo Min-kyu said, "I think we have a lot of winning conditions, including Daejeon players and atmosphere. Of course, it hasn't been long since (the season) started, and there are still many games left, so I think there could be a crisis. I think the championship will be decided depending on how you deal with the crisis." 스포츠토토
In order for Daejeon to win the league, Joo Min-gyu's role is important. Although he is in his mid-30s, he has scored eight goals in 11 games to lead the league. "[His physical condition] is the same every season. I feel relaxed. I can feel the trust of my teammates, coaches and others. Thanks to that, I think he has made good results because he can participate in games comfortably."
