this is so beautiful coming from the KNT under stielike or stielike half of those passes would have been pass misses
I know right. I couldn't believe what I was witnessing when it happened. I felt proud and I was happy lol so I just had to find that moment, gif it and share on here
Yeah well, it's only the beginning so you're not missing out all that much. We've got another big test coming up next month vs Uruguay on the 12th, followed by an interesting match up vs Panama on the 15th.
대한축구협회 관계자는 "벤투 감독이 파주 축구대표팀트레이닝센터(NFC)에서 가까운 일산에 집을 얻어달라고 요청했고, 곧 계약할 아파트를 둘러본 뒤 만족감을 표현했다"고 전했다. 이 아파트에는 벤투 감독과 코치들의 포르투갈에 있는 가족들이 이주해 함께 생활하게 된다. 축구협회는 영어와 포르투갈어에 능통한 사람을 대상으로 통역을 모집했는데, 총 69명이 지원해 현재 면접 절차에 들어간 상태다. 협회 관계자는 "통역을 뽑는 데 벤투 감독의 의사가 가장 중요하기 때문에 면접 과정에도 직접 참여할 예정"이라면서 "10월 A매치 전에는 통역을 확정할 예정"이라고 설명했다. Bento will be signing a contract for his apartment in Ilsan very soon, and has expressed his satisfaction as well. Bento and his coaching staff as well as their family will be residing their for four years. Also, a new translator will be selected before the October friendlies vs Uruguay + Panama, and the translator will be assisting him in not only with the national team duties, but as well as personal/family matters as well.
First gif shows how important JDW can be in Bento's system. Look at how far he drops down to link up play. I don't think any other striker can do that for us. The Korean Firmino?
that little flick by ki at the end is delicious i think we might've beaten sweden and drawn with mexico with this squad/manager at the WC
Edited. Reason: Mexico's 2nd goal was a fluke that should have been called a foul long before the ball went into net, Rafa Marquez's Jang Hyun Soo-esque pass back should've been Korea's goal and would've been a goal if Bento was coaching them.
Aranguiz says Isla's racist gesture was made towards him, not Koreans. His friends called him "Chinese eyes" when he was little because he apparently had small eyes. lol https://news.v.daum.net/v/20180913104841457
encouraged to see how Bento believes in this team. http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/news/2018/09/11/0200000000AEN20180911011100315.html
Match vs Uruguay won't be held at Busan due to the terrible pitch conditions. Instead, the KFA is trying to get a hold of the Seoul San-am World Cup Stadium.
He did say he was sorry in that post. "Pido disculpas" (I apologize) However, I don't really think he's actually sorry. He's probably got some PR guy writing his IG posts...
Lots more better would be, to not play again any other friendly match in the future, specifically against South Korea in South Korea (maybe restrict themselves to play against them, only in neutral venues), as it seems people round here are overly sensitive, and forget that the main reason to travel there in the first place, was to play football.
