Yang Hyun-jun was substituted in the 20th minute of the second half with the score tied at 2-2. He scored the winning goal just 3 minutes later with a header.

It was a sensational goal created by accurately predicting the timing of his teammate's cross pass and making a swift run.

Yang Hyun-jun's role as a 'game changer' did not end there.

In the 43rd minute of the second half, he assisted Maeda's additional goal with a sharp penetrating pass that caught the opposing defender off guard.

In stoppage time, he completed a multi-goal performance with another header, achieving 2 goals and 1 assist in just 25 minutes.
