South Korea's 0-2 loss to Jordan is the inside story**! A clash broke out between the captain and Li Gangren
Recently, it was reported that infighting broke out between South Korea and Jordan ahead of the semi-finals of the 2023 Asian Cup. In this match, South Korean captain Son Heung-min had an altercation with Lee Ang-in, causing Son Heung-min's fingers to be misaligned, which severely hit the team's morale and also hit their performance.
It is reported that the clash took place while the Koreans were eating. Sun Xingmin was very unhappy that several of his team members left the field early, and he said that eating time is a time to reflect team cohesion and a good time to cultivate the feelings of the players. However, some young people, such as Li Jiangren, did not take Son Heung-min's words seriously, and they quickly settled the dinner and prepared to go to play.
Son was furious by the move, blaming his team for not following the rules for group meals, and for not following them. Then, the two quarreled. The dispute quickly escalated, with people familiar with the inside story saying that the other team members also intervened. Son Heung-min was injured in the crowd when he tried to de-escalate the situation, resulting in a misalignment of his fingers.
The accident had a big impact on South Korea. As the captain, Son Heung-min is not only a spiritual leader, but also a tactical leader. His injury not only had a big impact on South Korea's semi-final strategy, but it also hit their morale. In the end, South Korea lost 0-2 to Jordan and lost their qualification to the final.
This incident exposed the contradictions and ** within the South Koreans. Although the South Korean team played well, the disagreement between the players obviously affected the team's spirit and performance. As captain, Son Heung-min neglected his responsibility to maintain team discipline and unity, while young people like Lee Geun-in were constantly provoking the authorities.
In competitive sports, teamwork is important. The clash in South Korea not only had a big impact on the team's results, but it also sent a negative signal to other teams, that even the top teams will have internal conflicts.
Overall, this incident became a turning point in South Korea's preparations for the 2023 Asian Cup. On the positive side, the accident will also prompt the South Korean side to reflect on the management of the team and improve communication and understanding among the team members to avoid the recurrence of such incidents. On the negative side, this clash will damage the fighting spirit and unity of the Koreans, and will have a negative impact on future competitions. In any case, the accident is a valuable lesson for South Korea, and it is also a warning that other teams should not blindly pursue victory in the competition and ignore the unity and stability of the whole.
