Champions League clash with Lazio could prove a huge night
Rival fans were at it again at the weekend. Social media was alive with images of the Kicker-Torjägerkanone, the trophy awarded for being the top-scorer in the Bundesliga.
How funny, they said, as if it was the first time it had been noticed, that the prize for scoring the most goals in the German league this season is a trophy in the shape of a cannon.
The reconciliation of formerly-feuding South Korean footballers Son Heung-min and Lee Kang-in was facilitated by Hwang Sun-hong, new interim manager of South Korea national football team, newspaper Donga Iibo reported.
The South Korean outlet said Hwang was the one who helped solve the conflict between the two South Korean stars.
However, it’s not by chance that Hwang helped Lee Kang-in make amends with his senior. The two are believed to have a special relationship.
At the Asian Games last year, Hwang led South Korea to a 2-1 victory over Japan in the final. From that tournament on, Hwang made an effort to catapult Lee’s talent more into the spotlight.
Lee, who plays for French giant PSG, has also appreciated Hwang for recognizing his potential.

The conflict between Lee and Son happened on Feb. 5, one day before South Korea’s 0-2 defeat against Jordan in the Asian Cup semifinal. During dinner, a few young players, including Lee, were playing ping-pong and making a loud, disruptive racket. They didn’t listen when Son told them to stop. A brawl between Son and Lee broke out, resulting in Son dislocating a finger.
