"I want to be an important player at Wolverhampton."

Hwang Hee-chan (30), a "bull" who broke Wolverhampton's winless ring, has claimed to be a key role in the team for the rest of the season.

Hwang Hee-chan started the 20th round home game of the "2025-2026 English Premier League (EPL)" against West Ham United at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England, on the 4th (Korea time) and led his team to a 3-0 complete victory with one goal and one assist.

Wolverhampton reported an emotional 'first win' in the opening 20 games. With one win, three draws and 16 losses (6 points), the gap between Burnley, ranked 19th in the league, was narrowed to six.

Hwang Hee-chan was the best contributor to the victory. He beat the defender on the left flank four minutes into the game before helping John Arias score the first goal with a sharp grounder cross. Then, in the 30th minute of the first half, Matheus Mane scored a penalty kick as a kicker and calmly succeeded.

According to "Foot Mob," which specializes in soccer statistics, Hwang Hee-chan played for about 61 minutes, scoring one goal and one assist, creating one opportunity, and a pass success rate of 76%. Footmob gave Hwang Hee-chan 8.4 points, the highest rating for both teams, and selected him as the most valuable player of the game.

After the game, Hwang Hee-chan expressed his trust and determination for acting coach Rob Edwards through an interview. According to Wolves TV, the official Wolves media in Wolves, he said, "I like director Edwards. "I also like the tactical side," he said, expressing satisfaction, "I wanted to learn good football, but (Edwards) had good tactics from the beginning."

"Coach Edwards was appointed six to seven weeks ago, but he is explaining well, so I understand everything well now," he said, adding, "I also want to be an important player at Wolverhampton."

Wolverhampton suffered the worst slump under Vitor Pereira this season and was ranked first in the relegation list. Edwards, who was deployed as a firefighter, also suffered a severe slump of seven consecutive losses since his inauguration, but the recent draw against Manchester United and victory over West Ham set the stage for a rebound.
