EPL Japanese winger, Son Heung-min-class kick goal… BBC “How beautiful” praise
Japan national team winger Kaoru Mitoma continues to fly.
Brighton drew 2-2 in the 21st round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2022-2023 season against Leicester City held at King Power Stadium in Leicester, England on the 22nd at 12:00 am (Korean time). With this draw, Brighton moved up to 6th place.
Mitoma, who played as a starter, led the Brighton attack. Mitoma, who was in good shape, scored a fantastic opening goal. Receiving a pass from the left in the 27th minute of the first half, Mitoma boldly dug inside with the defender in front. Mitoma maintained his speed and attempted a kick with his right foot. The ball left Mitoma’s feet and hit the corner of the Leicester goal while drawing a perfect trajectory. 슬롯사이트
It was as if Son Heung-min came to mind. After Mitoma received speed, the movement of trying to shoot from a 45 degree angle in the penalty box was very similar to Son Heung-min’s favorite scoring pattern. Originally, Mitoma was a player whose scoring ability was disappointing compared to the impact of the game, but this goal was a goal that could wash away that evaluation.
The British ‘BBC’ also praised him, saying, “He appeared once again. What a beautiful goal. Mitoma, the Japanese national team, gave Brighton a lead with a perfectly beautiful goal. What a shocking goal.”
In the 12th minute of the second half, Mitoma shone once again. Mitoma, who completely penetrated into the back space of Leicester’s defense, calmly folded and created the perfect opportunity for Soli March, who followed. However, Machi fired a shot into the sky.
Mitoma is emerging as a key resource for the team after the departure of Leandro Trosar, the original Brighton ace. He has been completely on the rise, scoring 4 goals and 1 assist in 7 recent league games.
Apart from Mitoma’s performance, Brighton couldn’t choose a game with Leicester. Leicester, who allowed Mark Woolbrighton and Harvey Barnes to score back-to-back goals, were satisfied with one point as Evan Ferguson scored at the end of the second half.
