[2018 FIFA World Cup Russia Qualifiers: AFC] Korea vs Lebanon 2015/09/08 [R]

yeah, that was dirty.

 

What truly impressed me about this performance was that we had to play during a major sandstorm in the region that affected Lebanon as the winds blew in from the east. I hope our players recovered and their health wasn't too affected playing in such a hell hole...

Not even surprised. It's typical for them.

 

Good victory in a tough away environment. 3-0 is a really nice result.

 

those lockers are literally worse than my high school lockers..

 

Just watched the game. I'll leave aside the despicable whistling during our anthem, faking putting the ball out, and lasers. The thing I liked the most was our pressing in their half. I remember watching our women's team play and it drove me crazy that we would take our foot off the gas when we were up. It's why Costa Rica was able to tie us. The pressing really took the pressure off the defense and allowed for good, coordinated offense. Loved it.

 

He didn't score but I thought he was great today. Made some good runs and played well with his back to the goal as well. Really really hope he can grow into the No. 9 role for the NT.

 

start at 4:00
i noticed that they also booed our national anthem. Their level of respect is abysmal.

 

Having watched the Baker and the Captain's ball touches back to back, while I appreciate Kwon's overall play you can't help but to be impressed by the quality of Ki's possessions. He knows when to dribble into space, when to pull back, when to switch the point of attack, when to release players, when to be the relief valve for his teammates, and finally when to pull the trigger. I know that their roles are different but Ki's poise on the ball and spatial awareness are just miles ahead of Kwon (and anyone else for that matter). My only wish is that he uses the attackers more to try to create space and score himself.

 

Watching this again, I have to say JWY had a very good match.

 

fair to say that the lebanese possess zero class. truly despicable

 

PJH...

 

Everyone always looks him over

 

except for the german ladies apparently

 

Wasn't it some Swiss broad?

Anyone has any pic or is PJH really good at protecting his private life?

 

Swiss. And for all we know, she may literally look him over by being taller than him.

 

oops yes, thats right.

 

I thought this as well, but I realized that we just don't have a legit enforcer in the NT. PJH leaves a little to be desired in terms of physicality and aggressiveness, but I think he's the best we've got in that role. He proved that in the AC.

Wish we had someone like prime KNI playing next to KSY.

 

What's all this about? Did I miss something?
