Lee Sung-yong hailed the victory of ace Kim Kwang-hyun

SSG Landers manager Lee Sung-yong hailed the victory of ace Kim Kwang-hyun (36).

“I think (Kim) Kwang-hyun pitched well even in the worst situation,” Lee said in an interview before the game against the Lotte Giants in the 2024 Shinhan Bank SOL Bank KBO League at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on Wednesday. Anyway, he became a winning pitcher.”

Kwang-hyun Kim earned his seventh win of the season in his last start on April 30, allowing five runs (four earned) on eight hits, two walks and one hit batter over five innings with five strikeouts and five walks. He was shaky, giving up a lot of runs, but he pitched five shutout innings to earn his sixth win in as many games.

“I think he’ll get better in the future because he ended up getting the win,” said Lee, who added, ”I was really hesitant to make a change. There were a few times when I thought about making a change, but I thought, ‘Let’s go all the way,’ and Kwang-hyun did a good job. I was thinking about making a substitution from the fourth inning, but after the fourth inning, I decided to go for the fifth inning. Coach Song Shin-young guided me well and gave me a lot of advice in the data part, so I think yesterday’s win will give Kwang Hyun a lot of confidence, and I think he won in the worst possible situation.”

Won-seok Oh has been hit hard in the second half of the season with a headshot ejection and a rainout, resulting in a 3-1 record with a 4.91 ERA in 7⅓ innings.

“The most unfortunate thing was the headshot ejection against KIA. I think it would have been okay if it wasn’t for that. In the end, 파워볼실시간 starting pitchers are important whether they are good or bad, but winning or not winning seems to have a big impact on their psychological stability. Still, (Oh) Won-seok continues to pitch well, so I think we can get a win sooner rather than later,” said Lee, who is looking forward to Oh’s performance.

“There is only one key left,” Lee said of foreign pitcher Roenis Elias, adding, ”He’s been preparing hard and he has good stuff. But I wish he would pay more attention to his pitching patterns. He’s a left-hander who throws 150 kilometers per hour, and I wish he would think more about how to maximize that good fastball. Won-seok, Kwang-hyun and (Song) Young-jin are feeling the effect of the pattern a lot now. It’s not enough to have a fastball anymore. It’s different now. The best changeup for ABS (automatic ball judgment system) is a curveball. I think the probability is higher if you throw that type of pitch,” he said of Elias’ pattern change.

The Hanwha Eagles are set for their 14th game of the season

For the second straight day, the Hanwha Eagles will try to upset the No. 1 team in the second half of the KBO.

The Hanwha Eagles are set for their 14th game of the season against the KT Wiz of the 2024 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the last day of July.

Hanwha lined up with the following starting lineup against KT starter Ko Young-pyo: Jonathan Peraza (designated hitter), Kim In-hwan (left fielder), Kim Tae-yeon (right fielder), Noh Si-hwan (third baseman), Chae Eun-sung (first baseman), Ahn Chi-hong (second baseman), Ha Ju-seok (shortstop), Choi Jae-hoon (catcher), and Jang Jin-hyeok (center field).

Compared to the previous day’s lineup, only the catcher was changed from Lee Jae-won to Choi Jae-hoon.

The trio will form a battery with starter Ryu Hyun-jin.

The returning Ryu is 5-6 with a 3.68 ERA in 19 games, including a no-decision against the Samsung Lions in Daejeon on June 24 despite allowing two runs in seven innings. 사설 토토사이트 He hasn’t won a game since June 18 against the Cheongju Kiwoom Heroes.

Ryu has made four starts against KT this season. He has a 1-2 record with a 3.38 ERA, allowing two runs in six innings in Daejeon on March 29 (no-decision), five runs and seven hits in five innings in Suwon on April 24 (loss), six scoreless innings in Suwon on June 6 (win), and two runs in seven innings in Daejeon on July 3 (loss).

A win would give Hanwha its first five-game winning streak in 62 days since May 30 against the Lotte Giants in Daejeon. It will be interesting to see if they can continue their momentum against KT, who are in first place in the second half.

The NC Dinos have joined forces with Eric Yokishi

The NC Dinos of the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) have joined forces with former KBO All-Star Eric Yokishi.

NC announced on the 31st, “We have signed left-handed pitcher Yokishi as a replacement foreign player. The terms of the contract are 100,000 dollars (140 million won) per year.”

Yokishi is an experienced KBO pitcher. From 2019 to 2023, he served as an ace for the Kiwoom Heroes, compiling a record of 56 wins, 36 losses, and a 2.85 ERA in 130 games. In the 2021 season, he won 16 games, tying for the most wins with David Buchanan (formerly of the Samsung Lions).

After suffering a thigh injury midway through last season, Yokishi has been training privately without a club since recovering from the injury.

Earlier this month, he tried out for the Doosan Bears in a bid to return to the KBO, but was unable to sign a contract.

However, Yokishi signed with NC, who released Daniel Castano on Aug. 28, to play in Korea again.

“We considered several candidates, and Yokishi was the best player who could come to Korea the fastest in the current foreign market,” said NC head coach Lim Sun-nam. 메이저사이트 ‘We checked various aspects of Yokishi’s physical condition and decided to sign him,’ he said.

“Yokishi is a proven resource in the KBO and has a lot of experience, and his game management is based on his steady delivery. He also has good ground ball induction and strikeout ability, and we expect him to be a great addition to the team.”

Yokishi concluded, “I am grateful to the NC for this great opportunity. I can’t wait to see the wonderful stadium and passionate fans in Changwon,” said Yokishi. ”I know the role the team wants me to play and I want to fulfill it well, and I will try to help the team win every game.”

Yokishi will arrive in the country in early August and will finalize administrative procedures, including visa issuance, before adjusting his pitching schedule.

Park Sung-han led his team to victory

SSG Landers Park Sung-han led his team to victory in the Incheon Lotte Giants game on the 30th, hitting 3 hits and 3 RBIs including a home run.

Second half batting average .358, OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) .978.

He also raised his season batting average to .340. He once again proved the title of ‘.300 shortstop’ that followed him after his slump last year.

Park was the main player who led the batting line that day along with Lee Ji-young, who hit a timely hit in the bottom of the 1st inning, a final home run in the bottom of the 6th inning, and a tying home run in the bottom of the 2nd inning. He is particularly strong against Lotte among the 10 teams. His batting average is .600 (21 hits in 35 at-bats). He is the ‘Lotte Killer’ itself. He has struggled in the second half every year due to physical problems.

Park Sung-han looked back and said, “The coach told me to ‘focus on the game.’ So I focused on the game while resting rather than training.” He said that he reduced the amount of training and focused on improving his senses.

Now, the team seems to have faith in the skills of ‘national shortstop’ Park Sung-han.

He smiled and said, “I was very anxious at first, but the results are coming out well.” He is in his prime.

He is also increasingly being placed in the cleanup trio. Park Sung-han looked back and said, “I don’t really care about the batting order. However, 바카라사이트 being number one puts a lot of pressure on me. I feel like I have to see a lot of balls, and it’s also physically burdensome.”

Coach Lee Soong-yong emphasized to Park Sung-han several times, “Take a rest whenever you feel tired.” However, Park Sung-han has no intention of using the ‘vacation’ card yet. Rather, he is enjoying this moment of playing as a starting player in every game.

Park Sung-han wants to be a ‘clutch hitter’ rather than a batting average of .300 or a double-digit home run. He emphasized, “I was glad that I had a scoring opportunity from my first at-bat. I want to be a hitter who hits in a situation where I can score.” Regarding the home run, he was embarrassed, saying, “The timing was late, but I think it was because it was a changeup, so it went far.”

In the second half of the season, pitch comps were distributed to 10 teams. Park Sung-han said, “Thanks to this, it helps me defend and is convenient. Usually, there were many times when I couldn’t see the signs, but since I can hear them clearly with the call, it’s good for preparation.”

Tottenham is on the hunt for a teenage ‘wonderkid’

Tottenham is on the hunt for a teenage ‘wonderkid’.

Tottenham are interested in signing teenage wonderkid Michael Kayode (Fiorentina) for £33.8 million, according to British media outlet The Boot.

The 2004-born defender is a highly sought-after defensive talent around the world. Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Man City, FC Barcelona, and others are reportedly interested. He made 26 appearances in the Italian Serie A in the 2023-2024 season.

Tottenham are also in the race to sign Kayode. Spurs, 안전놀이터 추천 led by manager Enze Postecoglou, finished fifth in the English Premier League (EPL) in 2023-2024 with 20 wins, 6 draws, and 12 losses (66 points). They punched their ticket to European competition next season.

The club is now looking to strengthen its squad to reach even higher heights.

‘Spurs need the full support of chairman Daniel Levy if they want to go to the next level,’ says The Bootroom. Spurs have made contact to sign the talented defender. Kayode has been described as a wonderkid. He had a productive season in Serie A last season, leading the team. His current transfer fee is reportedly £33.8 million. That’s not cheap. However, Tottenham are the favorites to sign Kayode. Fiorentina said, ‘We expect a bid to come in soon’.

There are question marks. ‘Tottenham should prioritize the signing of a striker,’ says Dubutrum. They should focus on securing a replacement for Harry Kane (Bayern Munich). There’s a possibility that the Frenchman could leave. The club should sign a striker who can take the team to the next level. At the moment, they are relying too much on Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min scored 17 goals and provided 10 assists in 35 league games last season. 카지노사이트 추천 He also played as a frontline striker depending on the team’s situation.

This is a ‘sweet red bean bread’.

This is a ‘sweet red bean bread’.

“Kylian Mbappe (26) will not participate in Real Madrid’s U.S. tour,” the British ‘Tribuna’ reported on the 24th (Korea time).

Real Madrid announced through official channels on the 4th that “Kylian Mbappe has agreed to sign a contract with Real Madrid. Kylian Mbappe will be a Real Madrid player for the next five years,” the club announced on its official website.

“We strengthen our offense with the signing of Mbappe, a six-time top scorer at PSG last season, where he set a new single-season record for goals (44),” Real added.

Mbappe is a breakout star for the French national team. 스포츠토토 He can play as a wing-forward or up front, and has all the necessary attributes to do so, including great pace, quickness, and a powerful shot.

With Mbappe, Real Madrid is preparing for an extravagant signing ceremony.

Real Madrid is known for its ‘signing ceremonies’. When Cristiano Ronaldo joined Real from Manchester United in July 2009, more than 80,000 fans packed the Santiago Bernabeu stadium for his inauguration, while the arrivals of Gareth Bale and Eden Hazard were also celebrated in front of record crowds.

After a history of big-name signings, it seems that Real have really gone for it this time. “According to multiple sources in Spain, Real Madrid is planning a history-making induction ceremony at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu,” the media outlet reported earlier.

“The club is expected to announce Mbappe’s arrival with a brief official announcement on its website, social media and other official channels. His induction ceremony is expected to take place only after France has completed its UEFA Euro 2024 schedule,” the report added.

The problem is a broken nose. Mbappe, who entered the tournament as France’s first-choice striker, suffered a fractured nose in the first leg against Austria. He then missed the second game against the Netherlands.

Mbappe is not completely out of the Euro picture.

Like Son Heung-min at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, he will play with a face mask. In fact, he’s reportedly been training with one as well.

He”ll be fine for Europe, but will miss the tour of the United States. The injury to his nose was literally painful. “Thanks to the protective mask, he will be able to play, but he will need medical attention,” Tribuna reported.

On the same day, Spain’s As reported that “Mbappe is scheduled to undergo nose surgery in mid-July, with recovery usually taking two to three weeks. As a result, 토토사이트 순위 he will not be able to participate in the US tour. He is expected to return in time for the UEFA Super Cup before the start of the season.”

The Hungarian national team scored a stoppage-time winner

“Dominic Soboszlai (24, Liverpool) showed real leadership,” said the British publication Tribuna on Thursday.

He may be the youngest captain, but he’s certainly earned the title.

The Hungarian national team scored a stoppage-time winner to secure a 1-0 victory over Scotland in their final Euro2024 Group A match at the Stuttgart Arena in Stuttgart, Germany, at 4 a.m. on Thursday.

Hungary, who finished third in the group behind fellow group members Germany (2 wins, 1 draw, 7 points) and Switzerland (1 win, 2 draws, 5 points), will now depend on the results of the other group matches to determine their place in the round of 16. The first and second place finishers in each group, as well as the best four of the six third-placed nations, will also qualify.

Scotland failed to make it out of the group stage, 안전놀이터 finishing in last place (D1, L2, P1) without a single point in the tournament.

Hungary lined up in a 3-4-2-1 formation on the day.

Varanavas Varga was up front, with Dominic Soboslai-Roland Salai in the attacking second line. Milos Kerkez-Undrash Schaefer-Callum Stiles-Bendeguz-Bowler filled out the midfield. Marton Dardewey-Bili Orban-Endre Boatker formed the back four, with Peter Gulacci starting in goal.

The first half was dominated by Hungary, but goals were hard to come by. Despite five shots on goal, none were on target. Scotland didn’t have a single shot on target. In the 41st minute, Orbán had a header off a free kick that hit the post.

Hungary continued to attack in the second half.

In the 23rd minute of the second half, there was a mishap on a free kick opportunity. Frontline striker Varga collided with opposing goalkeeper Gunn and was knocked unconscious. The situation was urgent.

The medical team’s slow movement was frustrating. Varga, lying on the ground, was given first aid by team captain Soboszlai before being loaded into an ambulance and taken to the hospital. In the 29th minute of the second half, Hungary substituted Ulsan HD forward Martin Adam for Varga.

Hungary managed to pull a goal back.

On a counterattack just before the end of the game, “substitute” Kevin Choszos got his foot on a cross from the right and fired the ball home. The game ended the same way. A 1-0 win for Hungary.

Tribuna said: “There was a terrible moment in the Hungary-Scotland game. Varga collapsed unconscious. Varga’s teammates called for help from the medical staff and the captain, Soboszlai, took the stretcher himself and helped the medics get to his teammate.”

After the game, the Hungarian Football Association announced that Varga was stabilized. However, the broken bone will require surgery and he is expected to miss the rest of the Euros.

Meanwhile, Soboszlai, born in 2000, is the youngest captain in Euro history at 23 years old. Ahead of the tournament, Sly said: “We have nothing to lose. 슬롯사이트 순위 But we can achieve great things in Germany,” he said, adding that despite being the underdogs, he was confident they could pull off a miracle.

“A few days ago I found out that I am the youngest captain in the history of this tournament. I want to thank coach Marco Rossi for believing in me and giving me the opportunity,” he said, adding: “It’s a great honor for me. It’s a great honor for me.”

The Hungarian players, rallying around Soboszlyi, raised Varga’s jersey after the match and wished him a speedy recovery.

The reigning champions are looking to strengthen their squad

After winning the English Premier League (EPL) title for the last four seasons in a row, the reigning champions are looking to strengthen their squad in the summer transfer window. They’re spending a whopping £100 million to bring in a quality midfielder. Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, who is entering the final season of his contract, is one of Pep Guardiola’s top targets.

‘Man City are ready to make a move for the £100 million midfielder, who has been earmarked by Guardiola,’ according to British publication Cut Offside on April 24 (KST).

City are arguably the ‘best team of the moment’. They have won the EPL title in four consecutive seasons, starting with the 2020-2021 campaign. 카지노사이트 In the 2022-2023 season, they won the triple (EPL, FA Cup, and Champions League). The likes of Liverpool and Arsenal have tried to stop City from winning the title, but have always fallen short. The competition has been fierce, but City has always come out on top.

That’s why City is looking to “upgrade” this summer in the transfer market.

If all goes according to plan, they will be unstoppable in the EPL. They’re not just the best in the EPL, they’re the best in the universe. They already have one of the best midfielders in the world in Kevin De Bruyne, and with the addition of Guimaraes, they’ll have a formidable midfield.

The outlet cited a report from GiveMeSports that said: ‘Man City are preparing to sign Guimarães. It is expected to further strengthen the squad. Guimarães, a Brazilian specialist midfielder, signed a new five-year contract with Newcastle last year. His contract runs until 2028 and was thought to be off-limits.

However, Guimarães had a £100 million buyout clause. It was to be activated in June. City wanted to activate this clause and integrate him into the squad immediately. More importantly, Guardiola wants him badly.

If City make a move, Newcastle will have a hard time stopping it. Newcastle are aware of this. Of course, Guimarães wants to stay at Newcastle. However, if City meet his release clause of £100 million, he’ll have no choice but to move on. Also, 실시간 바카라사이트 the prospect of playing for a team that competes for the EPL title every season and plays in the Champions League could be enough to change his mind. It will be interesting to see if City can complete their dream midfield pairing of ‘The Browner-Guimarães’.

Bruno Fernandes is facing problems with teammate

Bruno Fernandes (29, Man United) is allegedly not getting along with the Portuguese attacking lineup.

“Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes is facing problems with teammate Cristiano Ronaldo at the Euros,” reported ‘Strictly News’ on July 23 (KST).

The Portuguese national team defeated the Turkiye 3-0 in their UEFA Euro 2024 Group F second leg at BVB Stadion Dortmund in Dortmund, Germany, at 1:00 a.m. on June 23.

Portugal lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Cristiano Ronaldo lined up up front, with Japhael Leroy-Bruno Fernandes-Bernardo Silva in the attacking second line. 바카라사이트 João Palinha-Vitinha filled out the midfield, while Nuno Mendes-Pepe-Hubeng Dias-Juan Cancellu formed the back four. Diogo Costa was in goal.

Portugal’s first goal came in the 22nd minute, when a low, quick cross from the left flank was not cleared by the defense and fell to Silva in the box, who found the back of the net with a precise left-footed shot.

Luck was on Portugal’s side.

In the 28th minute, Thurquié seemed to have escaped the danger after a crucial mistake by Portugal. Center back Samet Akaydin collected the ball and played it to goalkeeper Bayindre. However, Bayindre was far away from the goal and Akaydin’s attempted pass to the goalkeeper went straight into the net.

Ten minutes into the second half, Portugal scored their third goal, effectively sealing the victory. A one-timed ball in from behind was collected by Ronaldo, who broke the offside trap, and played a pass to Bruno Fernandes, who rushed in from the other side and made no mistake.

The game ended 3-0 in favor of Portugal.

Ronaldo played the full time and had 30 touches of the ball. He also added one assist, three chances created, eight touches in the opponent’s box, and two successful dribbles, proving that he is still a force to be reckoned with up front.

At 39 years old, 바카라사이트 추천 Ronaldo also seems to have lost some of the ‘greed’ he has been known for, as he neatly added an assist in the closing stages of the game, passing to Bruno who was in a better position to shoot when he had plenty of options.

“Ronaldo’s seventh assist of the tournament made him the most prolific Euro player of all time,” said The Athletic. Instead of shooting, he opted for a perfect pass.”

Ronaldo’s assist, Portugal’s big win, and Bruno’s goal.

Reports began to surface that something was wrong with the seemingly perfect Portuguese team.

According to Strait News, it was Portuguese daily newspaper Observador that first reported the news. “Bruno and Ronaldo are facing one problem at the tournament: the attacking midfielder is having problems with Ronaldo’s lack of pace,” the publication said.

Portugal coach Roberto Martinez has been playing Ronaldo up front and Bruno as an attacking midfielder in the tournament, with Bruno’s role being to play passes up front. But at 39 years old, Ronaldo’s feet have slowed down and this is causing problems.

“This problem, which often occurred when they were playing together at Manchester United, is now happening in the national team,” the outlet said. “Bernardo Silva is not as explosive and Ronaldo no longer has the pace he once had. Raphael Varane likes to drive the ball forward himself,” he said.

“All of this creates problems for Bruno. He likes to rush forward quickly,” 파워볼실시간 explaining that Bruno and the Portuguese offense are not a good match.

“Nevertheless, Ronaldo provided Bruno with an assist and Portugal took the two games without any problems. They will advance to the next round.”

The Spanish team is facing a “dilemma of epic proportions”

The Spanish national team is facing a “dilemma of epic proportions,” and some say it doesn’t matter.

“Spanish national team could be breaking strict German laws in their match against Albania, which could lead to unprecedentedly large penalties,” the UK’s Sports Bible reported on Thursday.

The Spanish national team will be looking to win the European Football Association (UEFA) Euro 2024. They thrashed powerhouse Croatia 3-0 in the first round of group play, and followed that up with a 1-0 win over defending champions Italy in the second round on June 21.

All that remains is a third-round match against Albania. 토토사이트 There were reports that there could be trouble in this match. One of the issues was the age of Ramin Yamal.

Yamal is a young player, born in 2007, who plays as a flanker for FC Barcelona. With solid fundamentals and mature individual skills, he torments opposing defenses with his fluid dribbling down the flanks. He also has a powerful shot and plays a big role in the team for his age.

According to reports,

Germany has a law that prohibits anyone under the age of 18 from working after 8 p.m., regardless of nationality. The law is meant to protect young workers, and soccer players are no exception.

“There is an exception that allows athletes to play until 11 p.m., but that exception must include time to shower and complete media obligations,” the media outlet reported, citing Germany’s Bild. If Yamal started and played the full time against Albania, showered, and gave an interview, it would be past 11 p.m. local time, which would be illegal.

As Sports Bible notes, “Yamal started both Euro games. In both games, he was subbed off early. Spain’s qualifying game goes to overtime and Yamal is playing in the wings, 안전놀이터 he’s in a difficult position to comply with the law. If that happens, he could be sanctioned.”

“If the German authorities take action, Spain would have to pay a fine of 30,000 euros ($44.7 million),” it added.

“However, some believe that this is just a ‘threat’ and is unlikely to be carried out. It would be surprising if the German authorities took action against the Spanish national team, as it is not as if Yamal is being victimized without receiving proper welfare.”

Meanwhile, Yamal is reportedly working on his schoolwork during his stay in Germany.

“I don’t know how many hours I study, I have a lot of free time, so I don’t have a set time, like ‘at least two hours today!'” he said.

“If I don’t have anything to do in my room, I’ll do some homework on my tablet, and if Fermin calls me to play games, I’ll go downstairs with them,” he said.

“Do I take tests? No. I just look at the material I get on the tablet, print it out and do the problems. They’ll probably send me my transcript online. I don’t know how far I’ll go in the Euros, but I hope I go far. I don’t want to go back and take classes again.”

“If we make it to the finals, 사설 토토사이트 I’m going to go straight on vacation without going back to school,” adds Yamal.
