Cho Gue-sung (FC Midtjylland), who unexpectedly left the pitch with a knee injury in his previous match, has returned to the starting lineup after just one week.
Cho started in the 2025-2026 Danish Superliga Round 22 away match against Brøndby at MCH Arena in Herning, Denmark, on the 1st (local time).
Cho played approximately 72 minutes before being substituted for Pedro Bravo in the 72nd minute, attempting two shots but failing to score.
Cho's return to the starting lineup is welcome news for head coach Hong Myung-bo's squad as they prepare for two friendly matches during the European tour in March.
Cho injured his knee in the Round 21 away match against Silkeborg on February 23. Given his history of missing the entire 2024-2025 season due to complications from previous knee surgery, concerns about a recurring injury were significant.
However, Cho dispelled those concerns by returning to the starting lineup after just one week.
Midtjylland drew 0-0 against Brøndby in the match.
