Sakai Yoshida Makino Nagamoto give up 2 goals to fcking Turkmenistan and our fcking brick wall KMJ KYK cant make it to Europe. We need AGENTS. Also, a solid defense is needed to win tourneys. I want us to keep a clean sheet the whole group stage at the very least.
Yeah he's injured, apparently he twisted his right big toe during the Philippine match, and he wasn't able to participate in training due to the pain, so he'll likely be out for the Kyrgyzstan match. Lee Seung-woo will likely start in his place. 대표팀 관계자는 "이재성이 필리핀에서 오른발 엄지발가락이 꺾여 통증을 느끼고 있다"라며 "부기가 빠지고 있지만 예전에 다쳤던 부위라서 관리 차원에서 이날 훈련에 나오지 않고 숙소에서 재활훈련을 한다"고 말했다.
축구협회 관계자는 10일 "국가대표감독선임위원회(위원장 김판곤) 산하의 TSG에서 활동하는 전임 지도자 두 명을 파견해 16강과 8강 경기를 분석하도록 할 예정"이라고 밝혔다. 이를 위해 정정용 20세 이하(U-20) 대표팀 감독과 김정수 17세 이하(U-17) 대표팀 감독이 19일 출국한다. 정정용 감독과 김정수 감독은 한국 경기를 제외한 16강 3경기와 8강 2경기를 직접 관전하고 분석 보고서를 만든다. Jung Jung-yong(U-20 NT Manager) and Kim Jung-soo(U-17 NT Manager) will both be flying to UAE on the 19th. According to the KFA, Kim Pan-gon is having the two managers observe and analyze the Asian Cup matches as well as the teams starting from the Round of 16.
This is very important. I remembered when Germany beat brazil 7-1, one of the main reason for heavy beating is that they scouted brazil for 4 yrs.
What squad strength is Japan fielding for the cup? Lot of names I don't recognize but that doesn't say much as I haven't been keeping up with Japanese players these days.
Sadly, HHC is irreplaceable right now.. He has a lot of weaknesses, but at the same time, he provides so much to the team.
India vs UAE is fairly entertaining. Both teams leave gapping holes on their defense on counterattacks
Amazing that you are unaware that Australia now cannot be 1st in their group and will most likely face Korea before the final if Korea finish 1st.(If both go undefeated) If they finish 3rd there is about 85 percent chance that their round of 16 opponent is Korea.
There's no reason to underestimate them... They are one of the favorites. In fact, they are the defending champion.
They are not what they used to be anymore, no one will underestimate them...but the fact that they couldn't beat S. Korea playing with the B team, in Australia, should tell a lot about how strong are they. Nowadays South Korea is a better team than Australia.
