"I WILL NEVER FORGET THE SOUND THAT CAME FROM THE STANDS"
Speaking after the match, Oh described the goal moment, saying, "First of all, it's an indescribable feeling. Actually, I wasn't feeling well before the match today. My fever went up to 38 degrees, and I thought a lot about whether I could play. But all our staff here took very close care of me. Thanks to them, I was able to take the field today and score a goal. I sensed the goal at that moment. I will never forget the sound that came from the stands after the goal."

South Korea's head coach Myung-bo Hong said, "Hyeon-gyu Oh was one of the moves we prepared, but he wasn't at 100% fitness from the start. He made a great effort to quickly recover his condition, and I think he showed a very good performance today."
