'''Cho Young-jeung''' (born 18 August 1954) is a South Korean former [[football (soccer)|footballer]] who played as a defender. He won two [[Football at the Asian Games|Asian Games]], and participated in the [[1986 FIFA World Cup]].
== Club career ==
Cho was allowed to participate in tryouts for [[North American Soccer League (1968–1984)|North American Soccer League]] (NASL) clubs by the [[Korea Football Association]] when the national team left for [[Los Angeles]] to train in February 1981.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://newslibrary.naver.com/viewer/index.naver?articleId=1981020500209208010&editNo=2&printCount=1&publishDate=1981-02-05&officeId=00020&pageNo=8&printNo=18257&publishType=00020 |script-title=ko:蹴球協 花郎 趙榮増·金黃鎬선수 프로팀入團 테스트 허용 |website=[[Naver]] |language=ko |publisher=[[The Dong-a Ilbo]] |date=1981-02-05 |access-date=2022-04-28}}</ref> He joined [[Portland Timbers (NASL)|Portland Timbers]] after having offers from four clubs.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://newslibrary.naver.com/viewer/index.naver?articleId=1981030400329208001&editNo=2&printCount=1&publishDate=1981-03-04&officeId=00032&pageNo=8&printNo=10900&publishType=00020 |script-title=ko:趙榮增·金黃鎬 美프로蹴球 진출 |website=[[Naver]] |language=ko |publisher=[[Kyunghyang Shinmun]] |date=1981-03-04 |access-date=2022-04-28}}</ref> He played both football and [[indoor soccer]] for Portland Timbers, becoming the first Asian to play indoor soccer.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://newslibrary.naver.com/viewer/index.naver?articleId=1982012100329208001&editNo=2&printCount=1&publishDate=1982-01-21&officeId=00032&pageNo=8&printNo=11173&publishType=00020 |script-title=ko:趙榮增 美실내축구서도 人氣 東洋선수론 최초…팬들 사랑 독차지 |website=[[Naver]] |language=ko |publisher=[[Kyunghyang Shinmun]] |date=1982-01-21 |access-date=2022-04-28}}</ref> In 1982, he made the cover of ''Kick'', the official magazine of the NASL,<ref>{{cite news |url=https://funwhileitlasted.net/north-american-soccer-league-programs/3/ |title=North American Soccer League programs |publisher=Fun While It Lasted |access-date=2022-04-28}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=https://newslibrary.naver.com/viewer/index.naver?articleId=1982072300209208015&editNo=2&printCount=1&publishDate=1982-07-23&officeId=00020&pageNo=8&printNo=18708&publishType=00020 |script-title=ko:81년도판「킥」지의 표지인물로등장한 趙榮増선수 |website=[[Naver]] |language=ko |publisher=[[The Dong-a Ilbo]] |date=1982-07-23 |access-date=2022-04-28}}</ref> and was selected for the first team of the NASL all-stars. He returned to his country after the [[K League]] was founded in 1983.
[[FC Seoul|Lucky-Goldstar Hwangso]] was a newly-formed weak team in the K League when Cho joined it in 1984, and so he played as a forward or midfielder in unfamiliar positions if necessary.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.kleague.com/news_view.do?seq=8333&orderBy=seq&viewOption=album&page=1 |script-title=ko:포지션 변경에 성공한 K리그 선수들은? |publisher=K League |lang=ko |date=2020-04-22 |access-date=2023-10-18}}</ref> However, he scored nine goals in the [[1984 K League|1984 season]], and was selected as the Exemplary Award winner and one of the [[K League Best XI]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://newslibrary.naver.com/viewer/index.naver?articleId=1984111200209209007&editNo=2&printCount=1&publishDate=1984-11-12&officeId=00020&pageNo=9&printNo=19420&publishType=00020 |script-title=ko:모범상 럭키금성 趙榮増 |publisher=[[The Dong-a Ilbo]] |lang=ko |website=[[Naver]] |date=1984-11-12 |access-date=2023-10-18}}</ref> He also scored in six consecutive games, becoming a record holder until [[Hwang Sun-hong]] broke the record in 1995.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://newslibrary.naver.com/viewer/index.naver?articleId=1995092800289119005&editNo=5&printCount=1&publishDate=1995-09-28&officeId=00028&pageNo=19&printNo=2353&publishType=00010 |script-title=ko:프로축구 황선홍 7경기 연속골 |publisher=[[The Hankyoreh]] |lang=ko |website=[[Naver]] |date=1995-09-28 |access-date=2023-10-18}}</ref>
== Style of play ==
Cho was considered as one of the best centre-backs in South Korea and the United States during the 1980s. He didn't have rapid pace and great stamina, but he was noted for his prediction, positional sense and team play. He also had a burly physique and so was skilled in tussle and tackle.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.kfa.or.kr/layer_popup/popup_live.php?act=news_tv_detail&idx=4690&div_code=news |script-title=ko:[나의 선수시절28] 조영증' 영리한 수비로 새로운 영역 마련 |language=ko |publisher=KFA |date=25 September 2009 |access-date=15 March 2020}}</ref>
