Yang Hyun-joon (23), who returned to Celtic from Hong Myung-bo Team, scored a goal.

Celtic won 2-1 in the 32nd round of the "2025-2026 Scottish Premiership" against Dundee at Dens Park in Dundee, Scotland on the 6th (Korea Standard Time). Celtic, who won the away game, maintained their third place with 64 points (20 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses).

Yang Hyun-joon started as a right-sided striker in the 4-2-3-1 formation and scored the first goal while playing full season. In the 8th minute of the first half, when Tomashi Chibanchara's shot fell after hitting the goalkeeper, Yang Hyun-joon caught it and pushed it with his left foot. Fellow Benjamin Nugren also reached the ball at the same time as Yang Hyun-jun, but Yang Hyun-jun's foot touched it first.

With this, Yang Hyun-joon reported his seventh goal (1 assist) in the league this season. The official match is his ninth goal (7 goals in the league, 1 goal in the UEFA Champions League (UCL), and 1 goal in the Scottish League Cup).

Yang Hyun-joon, who scored multiple goals against Motherwell on the 15th of last month, scored a goal in two games. Yang Hyun-joon, who wore a Celtic uniform in 2023, is on the verge of scoring double digits for the first time since entering Europe.

On this day, Celtic took the lead with Yang Hyun-joon's first goal, but gave up the tie with a penalty kick to Simon Murray in the 12th minute of the second half. However, Kelechi Iheanacho, who was replaced, scored the winning goal in the 37th minute of the second half to win.

Yang Hyun-joon even induced the opponent's Red Card immediately after Iheanacho's score. When Yang Hyun-joon tried to break through in the 39th minute of the second half, center back Ryan Astley knocked it over, and the referee took out a red card.

Meanwhile, Yang Hyun-joon was selected to the South Korean national soccer team led by head coach Hong Myung-bo and played two consecutive away matches in Europe in March. It was the first time in nine months that he was selected for the national team since the final Asian qualifying round for 2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup in June last year.

Yang Hyun-joon was substituted in the second half of both the Ivory Coast (0-4 loss) and Austria (0-1 loss) and played, increasing his chances of playing in the 2026 2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup.
