Cho Kyu-sung scored an emotional score.

Mitwillan won 3-0 in the third round of the Denmark Cup in the 2025-2026 season against AaB at Olvogr Portland Park in Olvog, Denmark on the 18th (Korea time). With this win, Mitwillan advanced to the fourth round.

South Korean national duo Lee Han-bum and Cho Kyu-sung, who play for Mitwillan, were listed side by side. Lee Han-beom started with three hundred in charge, and Cho Kyu-sung waited on the bench.




Mitwillan, who did not score in the first half, led with Junior Brumado's first goal in the fifth minute of the second half. Meat Willan, who needed an additional goal, put in Cho Kyu-sung in the 13th minute of the second half. After Cho Kyu-sung was put in, Mitwillan took the lead with Valdemar Andreasen's additional goal in the 18th minute of the second half.

In the 34th minute of the second half, Cho Kyu-sung finally shook the net. Cho Kyu-sung, who was taking active movements, calmly finished the pass that Edward Chilupya put up over the defense on the right side. It was a really meaningful comeback goal for Cho Kyu-sung.

After the end of last season, Cho decided to have knee surgery immediately for the next season. However, complications were confirmed during rehabilitation after knee surgery. Cho Kyu-sung had a painful day, losing 14 kilograms.

Rehabilitation was really long. Cho Kyu-sung, who showed good performance in the Danish league and was expected to advance to the big league, only rehabilitated throughout the 2024-2025 season. The long absence seemed like a crisis in a player's life. Over a year of rehabilitation, there was no end in sight, and many feared for his future. However, Cho did not back down. About a month after his return match last month, he was listed as a scorer again, signaling that Cho Kyu-sung is back.




Cho Kyu-sung, who scored his last goal on May 13, 2024, as a member of Mitwillan, scored for the first time in a year and four months. It has been 494 days since he scored at home. After the game, Cho Kyu-sung burst into tears in front of Meat Willan fans. They screamed and performed a fierce ceremony. It seemed to throw up the anger that had been accumulating.

If Cho Kyu-sung is revived properly, it will be a great help to the Korean national team. Before the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar, Cho Kyu-sung led South Korea's front line. Cho Kyu-sung made his name known by scoring two goals at the World Cup.

After Cho Kyu-sung was injured, the main striker for the South Korean national team has not been confirmed. Oh Hyun-kyu seems to be leading, but there is no man to trust yet. If Cho Kyu-sung improves his scoring ability again within this season, it is not difficult to get on the national team again.
