Lee Hye-jung Faces Emotional Showdown in 'Goal-Scoring Girls' Rivalry Match

Lee Hye-jung, who married actor Lee Hee-jun in 2016, shares her complex emotions ahead of a significant match.

The third match of Group B in the second season of SBS's 'Goal-Scoring Girls' (hereafter referred to as 'Goal Girls') will be revealed. This episode features a fierce showdown between 'FC Tall and Fabulous,' who are riding high after their first win of the season, and 'FC Actionista,' who are eager for victory after a loss.

This match, happening after approximately 2 years and 7 months, is a classic rivalry in 'Goal Girls,' known as 'El Clasico,' and has consistently drawn intense viewer interest. With a tight contest expected, the head-to-head record stands at 3 wins and 2 losses in favor of 'Actionista.' However, as both teams face off for the first time after team restructuring, predicting the outcome is challenging. The question remains: which of these long-time rivals will claim victory?

The highlight of this match is undoubtedly the 'Lee Hye-jung Derby.' Formerly a versatile player for FC Actionista, 'Hyerauchi' Lee Hye-jung will face her former team for the first time since transferring to FC Tall and Fabulous. Before the match, Lee Hye-jung expressed her mixed feelings, saying, “I feel very unsettled about this game. I was hoping this day wouldn't come.” Fans are eager to see how Lee Hye-jung, who once led Actionista's 'Orange Renaissance,' will perform as the new ace of the 'Ultimate Model Squad' against her former team.

FC Tall and Fabulous coach Kim Young-kwang has devised a tailored strategy targeting the traditional powerhouse FC Actionista. He plans to use a 'White Crack' strategy, leveraging the 'model physique' for high pressing to disrupt the opponent's build-up and launch quick counterattacks. With the debut victory boosting the game sense of 'hot rookies' Jung Da-eun and Jung Yi-young, they aim to thwart Actionista's offense. Can FC Tall and Fabulous continue their winning streak with another victory?

Meanwhile, familiar faces came to support FC Tall and Fabulous. Former members Kim Jin-kyung and Jin Jung-sun, who led the team to victory in the first G League, visited the stadium, celebrating their pregnancies and marriages. The team prepared a surprise event and special gifts for them before the match. Will the encouragement from these former champions lead Tall and Fabulous to victory?

Catch all the action on SBS's 'Goal-Scoring Girls' at 9 PM on the 11th.
