Oh Hyeon-gyu admits it felt amazing to escape a difficult time as he gloriously surged from the shadow of Kyogo Furuhashi. Now the South Korean striker admits he’d love more opportunities to combine with the Japanese top gun.
And Oh has also outlined his deep gratitude at relentless backing from boss Brendan Rodgers. The 22-year-old picked a perfect moment to get off the mark for the campaign with a crucial late winner to sink St Mirren.
Oh climbed from the bench against Stephen Robinson’s side to smash his blistering effort which maintains his side’s five point lead at the top of the Premiership heading into tomorrow’s away trip to face Ross County.
It had been a long wait for the back-up hitman who has had to bide his time behind Kyogo this term and the feeling was special when he struck.
