Kim Eun-joong’s captain, Lee Seung-won, was awarded the Bronze Ball for the third-place player at the awards ceremony at La Plata Stadium in Argentina on the 12th (Korean time), with Uruguay winning the championship.

Lee Seung-won, who posted 7 attack points with 3 goals and 4 assists in this tournament, was named the third best player following the Golden Ball and Silver Ball.

Korea lost 1-3 to Israel in the 3rd and 4th place match.

Four years ago, when he was runner-up, Lee Kang-in (Mallorca) won the Golden Ball with 2 goals and 4 assists at the Polish tournament, and Korea won the individual award for the second time in a row.

It is the third Korean player to win the award in the men’s competition organized by FIFA, following the 2002 World Cup Korea-Japan World Cup Hong Myung-bo’s Bronze Ball and the 2019 U-20 World Cup Lee Kang-in’s Silver Ball.

Lee Seung-won also scored a goal with a penalty kick in the match against Israel that day.

Lee Seung-won announced a good start by recording 1 goal and 1 assist in the first group match against France, and assisted Park Seung-ho (Incheon) with a header in the second match against Honduras. He then helped Choi Seok-hyun (Dankook University)’s headers with sharp crosses in the round of 16 match against Ecuador and the quarter-final match against Nigeria.

Lee Seung-won said, “I think not only me but all the players learned a lot through this World Cup. It was an opportunity to develop further in the future.” I am grateful to the fans who supported me,” he said.

Meanwhile, Cesare Casadei (Italy), who won the top scorer with 7 goals, received the Golden Ball, equivalent to the MVP of the tournament. The golden boot, which means the top scorer, was also his share. The Silver Ball was won by Alan Maturo (Uruguay).
