A 0 2 changed South Korean football, Son Heung-min withdrew from the national team, and Lee Gang-in expressed his reform!
Before the start of the game, everyone expected that South Korea would send 10 teams of nines, but in the final moments, they were beaten 2-0 by Jordan and unfortunately eliminated from the tournament. After the defeat, football in South Korea has also changed a lot. Son Heung-min even said in an interview that he may not play for South Korea in the future!
The Koreans' overall form in this round of the semi-finals was pretty bad, with their top scorer Son Heung-min not even getting a shot, let alone a goal. He had eight passes, five hits, but conceded 12. And the hero who scored only one goal and one point in the last game"Sun Qiu Wang"It's completely different. Son Heung-min apologized several times during the match and was hailed as the "strongest South Korean team of all time" and was forced to leave his trip to Asia early.
After coming out of the locker room, Son once again conducted a second interview with reporters through the club's channel, and his words were quite inflammatory, suggesting that he wanted to quit FIFA. "I think I have to think seriously about whether I can play in South Korea in the future, I feel like Klinsmann won't call me in the future, and I don't know what will happen in the future," Son said. The manager asked me to win the title but we lost in the semi-finals and the whole team was very frustrated. ”
Another South Korean goalscorer, Lee Gang-kim, also said in an interview that it was time for South Korean football to reform. If a team loses, we can't blame a player just because of him, we should contribute to Korean football together. There's still a lot to do in the future, and if I can, I'm willing to make some changes first, and I'll definitely try my best to play the games that everyone wants. "
For German coach Jurgen Klinsmann, a person who has been criticized by South Korea, the old coach has no intention of retiring. In an interview, he has made it clear that he will not resign, but will return to South Korea to discuss what he has learned in this tournament with the board of directors of the Korean Football Association. After that, he will lead the team to fight for the United States, Canada, and Mexico in 2026. Klinsmann said he was willing to take responsibility for his failures, but rather than leave like a deserter, he should solve his own problems and improve himself.
South Korean football is expected to have one more after this disgraceful defeat"**"。I don't know where South Korea should go after the absence of Son Heung-min?
