“I will prove it with results at the Asian Games.”
Bucheon FC 1995 Ahn Jae-jun leads his team to the top of the league and participates in Hwang Seon-hong's convocation training for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.
Bucheon, led by coach Lee Young-min, defeated Chungnam Asan 1-0 with Ahn Jae-jun's goal in the last minute of the second half in the Hana One Q K-League 2 (2nd division) 2023 30th round match held at Bucheon Sports Complex at 4 p.m. on the 2nd. With this, Bucheon, who had three consecutive wins, jumped to third place with 48 points (14 wins, 6 draws, 8 losses), beating Gyeongnam FC (12 wins, 9 draws, 6 losses, 45 points). The point difference with 2nd place Busan I-Park (14 wins, 8 draws, 5 losses, 50 points) is 2 points.
The blue bird of victory that day was striker Ahn Jae-jun, born in 2001. Jaejun Ahn scored the key goal that decided the game in the last minute of the second half when the score was 0-0. He finished without missing the ball that was lost due to a defensive error.
After the game, Ahn Jae-jun said, "I feel it every time I play against South Chungcheong Asan, but it was a tough game. I'm glad that I scored a goal and the team was able to win. I thought I would get a chance when I was substituted. I kicked it, but I saw it go into the goal. In fact, Honam is my older brother. “It was a pass that looked like a ball, but I was lucky and it went in. Let’s call it a shot,” he joked, expressing the joy of victory.
Jaejun Ahn leaves for Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do on the 4th. This is Hwang Seon-hong’s convocation training. Jaejun Ahn expressed his thoughts on leaving, saying, "My goal is to win a gold medal in the competition. I have to go and compete again. It would be great if I could play a lot, increase my attack points, and even win the championship."
For Coach Lee, it is unfortunate that Ace left. Ahn Jae-jun himself said, "During important periods, I may miss 3 to 5 games, not just one or two. However, there are many players in Bucheon who can replace me. There are also many good brothers. Ui-hyung is in good shape. I hope Ho-min does well as well. "There are many players who can fill the position. My colleagues joked and told me to just wait a week and not come back. The coach didn't mention anything because he thought it was a burden," he said, expressing expectations rather than concern.
Regarding the concerns about being selected as a second division player, "I wasn't suddenly selected. I came through the national team for each age group. I think I was selected because I showed a good performance there. If I prove myself at the Asian Games without worrying about what others think, it will disappear. Let's focus on that. “I will prepare,” he said, expressing confidence.
Jaejun Ahn, born in 2001, has established himself as the center of Bucheon. However, he expressed his bold thoughts, saying, "I don't really feel any pressure. This is my third year as well. I don't think I'm young. There are a lot of young people on the team and people my age are also playing. I just think I need to do better."
He also mentioned his goal for the season, saying, "I'm aiming for 10 goals this season. The number of attack points is 15. It's a goal I set before the season, so it would be nice if I achieve it."
Lastly, he concluded the press conference by saying, "I don't know yet because the difference in points between 1st and 2nd place is not that much. If we are in a higher position when we come back, I think we can seriously pursue promotion."
