The tournament being held in Saudi Arabia. South Korea is in Group C along with Iran, Lebanon and Uzbekistan. Highlights from our first match against Iran: We were fairly toothless with only 1 shot on goal and a xG of .34. Fortunately, the Iranians were even worse -- perhaps they couldn't shake off the crisis unfolding back home.
If both Japan and Korea win, they will face each other in the semifinals. The loser will have to go for the 3rd place or have to do playoffs, and the winner will advance to the Olympics directly.
Gets owned by Japan, who didn't have a single player over 20. And virtually all domestic players. Utterly embarrassing.
We also got dominated physically. We are fking doomed. So many talented young players playing in Europe but they all might have to go to army now.
일본 매체 '축구채널'이 한일전 반응을 보도했다. 여기에 일부 팬들은 한국의 국민성을 걸고 넘어졌다. "한국의 국민성에도 문제가 있다고 생각한다. 눈앞의 결과에만 혈안이 된다. 한국인들은 장기적인 시야가 없다. 프라이드만 높다", "기술이 없고, 근성도 없다", "두 살 아래 선수들에게 졌다는 건 노력도 하지 않는다는 것"이라며 조롱 혹은 비판하는 쪽도 있었다. Can't even be mad about what they said bc it is all true lol
