Gwangju's golden left foot Asani

Gwangju FC's golden left foot Asani is trying to make his dream stage Euro 2024 a reality.

Gwangju will play a home game against Jeonbuk Hyundai in the 31st round of Hana One-Q K League 1 2023 at Gwangju Football Stadium at 2 p.m. on the 24th.

The game is important to Gwangju. If the team wins the match against Jeonbuk and seventh-ranked Incheon United loses to Gangwon FC on the same day, it will confirm its advance to Split A, which will be given up to sixth place. Gwangju and Incheon are five points apart. This is the first achievement in three years since 2020.

The game is highly anticipated for Asani. Asani is leading Gwangju's attack with a sharp left-footed kick from the side and a quick breakthrough. Although he failed to score in the last 30 rounds of away matches against FC Seoul, his sharp left foot threatened Seoul.

In an interview ahead of the match, Asani said, "I'm in good condition. Of course, I want to score a goal. The team wins first. "I was in good condition against Seoul, but I tried to play well even though I was tired after going to the national team," he said in anticipation of the match against Jeonbuk. 스포츠토토

He is even aiming for the stage of his dreams. It will be held in Germany in June 2024.

Asani is also active in the Albania national team. He contributed to the 2-0 win over Poland in Game 5 with the first goal. Naturally, expectations for participation in Euro 2024 are high.

"The Czech Republic is important, but we have to play as hard as in the finals in the rest of the games. "I think it would be good to commit to the team and play Euro 2024 for the Albanian people," he said.

He credited Gwangju and the K League for his strong performance. "My performance in the K League helped me. I learned a lot because it's a different style of league. I played completely different soccer in Gwangju, and it was hard because the culture was different. I've adapted now," he said, thanking Gwangju for making his dream come true.
