On Friday, Hwang scored a brilliant opener in South Korea’s friendly with Costa Rica, which eventually finished 2-2 thanks to a late equaliser courtesy of Tottenham Hotspur’s Heung-min Son.
A tidy finish from Hwang!

The following day, Ruben Neves played the full 90 of Portugal’s thumping 4-0 win over Czech Republic, which also saw Matheus Nunes feature for the final 13 minutes off the bench.
Fellow Wolves men Jose Sa and Pedro Neto were unused substitutes for Portugal, who are back in action against Spain tomorrow evening.
Elsewhere, Nathan Collins was representing the Republic of Ireland in Scotland. His lay off was smashed home by John Egan after 18 minutes, giving the defender an assist, but the Irish went on to lose 2-1.
The captain fires the Republic of Ireland in front against Scotland! 🇮🇪
