Besiktashi striker Oh Hyun-kyu (25) has been silent for three consecutive games in the regular league. However, based on his amazing performance recently, he was proudly listed on the Korean national soccer team list.

Besiktashi won 2-0 in the 26th round of the "2025-2026 Turkiye Schiffer League" against Gentzlervyri at Erman Stadium in Ankara, Turkiye on the 16th (Korea Standard Time).

Besikta City, which continued its 18-game unbeaten streak (12 wins and 6 draws) before losing to Galatasaray, won again to boost the atmosphere. He ranked fourth with 49 points (14 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses).

Oh Hyun-kyu, who was the front-line striker in the 4-1-4-1 formation, hit twice but failed to score an offensive point. He played until the 44th minute of the second half and was replaced by Jota Silva.

Oh Hyun-kyu scored three consecutive goals since his debut against Alan Yaspor on the 9th of last month, and also showed off his fierce scoring ability by scoring in the fourth Group C match of the Turkiye Cupas (Cup Competition) on the 5th. However, he has not scored a goal in the last three league games.

Even if he failed to score an offensive point on the day, Oh Hyun-kyu served as the starting point for the first winning goal, helping him win. In the 11th minute of the second half, Oh Hyun-kyu dug into the left side of the penalty box and hit a strong shot, but was blocked by the goalkeeper. The defender cleared the ball with his head, but Junior Olaitang rushed into the box and hit a non-stop shot to break the net.

Besiktashi, riding the flow, won 2-0 in the 22nd minute of the second half with Orkun Koekchi's net goal.

Oh Hyun-kyu's recent remarkable performance and physical condition were natural to be called by director Hong Myung-bo. At 2 p.m. on the same day, the list of 27 players to play in two consecutive A matches in March was announced at Korea Football Park in Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do, and Oh Hyun-kyu was proudly listed.

Coach Hong Myung-bo chose Oh Hyun-kyu, Captain Son Heung-min (LAFC), and Cho Kyu-sung (Mit Willan) as the frontline strikers. Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain), Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), Lee Jae-sung (Mines), Yang Hyun-joon (Celtic), Bae Joon-ho (Stoke City), and Um Ji-sung (Swansea City) were selected as side striker resources.
