Why didn't Matthew mention the names of three kings in the genealogy of the Lord Jesus Christ?

Matthew 1:8
Matthew didn't include three kings after king Jehoram:
1) King Ahaziah
2) King Joash
3) King Amaziah

The above three kings were missing in Matthew 1: 8, after king Jehoram,
(2 Chronicles 22)
Then the people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, Jehoram’s youngest son, their next king. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram reigned as king of Judah.
After king Ahaziah his son Joash ruled Judah and again his son Amaziah ruled Judah for 25 years.  These three kings were not present in Matthew Gospel chapter 1 : 8.
