PSG Coach Enrique: “Lee Kang-in will Rest Until Next Week After Playing in the Asian Cup”

Lee Kang-in said on SNS, “I’m sorry for not being able to live up to your expectations… I will become a dedicated player for my team and the national team.”

Lee Kang-in, who returned to his Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) team after finishing in the semifinals of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup, has some time to catch his breath.

“Lee Kang-in is taking a vacation according to the coach’s instructions after a long journey of intensive competition. 바카라사이트 추천

“I received it,” he said.

Coach Enrique explained, “Lee Kang-in wants to return to training and games, but he will be on vacation until next week.”

In this Asian Cup, Lee Kang-in solidified his presence as the national team’s ace by scoring three goals,

the most among the Korean national team, along with Son Heung-min (Tottenham).

Korea attempted to regain the top spot in the Asian Cup for the first time in 64 years with players active in the European big leagues such as Son Heung-min, Lee Kang-in, and Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich),

but were eliminated after losing 0-2 to Jordan in the semifinals held in the early morning of the 7th, Korean time.

And Lee Kang-in returned to France.

PSG is scheduled to play a home game against Lille at 5 a.m. on the 11th, Korean time,

and according to coach Enrique, Lee Kang-in is not expected to play in this game.

Asked if Agingin had an injury or any other problem, coach Enrique said:

“No, he is in perfect condition. I hope he is tanning.”

PSG will play a home game against Real Sociedad in the first leg of the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League on the 15th, and continue with an away game against Nantes in Ligue 1 on the 18th.

Meanwhile, Lee Kang-in expressed his thoughts after finishing the Asian Cup on his Instagram.

He wrote, “The players, coaching staff, and support staff worked hard together for a month with the goal of the Asian Cup,

but I personally feel a lot of disappointment because we were unable to achieve the desired results.”

He continued, “I wanted to repay the constant expectations and support of soccer fans who always support our national team with good results in this Asian Cup, but I am sorry that I could not do so.”

Lee Kang-in said, “I think many fans will be disappointed,

but if you believe in and support our national team as you have done so far,

we will all work as one team to show better play on the pitch and further build a competitive team on the world stage.

“I will do my best to make it happen,” he emphasized.

Lee Kang-in added, “I will work hard to become a player who is dedicated to both my team and the national team and goes one step further for the team’s victory.”

Klinsmann, The Price of not Finishing First in the Group

Asian Cup Only Two Days of Rest Until the Quarterfinals… Klinsmann “The Price of not Finishing First in the Group”

“The fact that we are only given two days off before the game against Australia is the price we pay for not finishing first in the group,” said Jurgen Klinsmann, coach of the Korean national soccer team, at the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar match against Saudi Arabia on the 30th (local time).

He said this after finishing the Asian Cup round of 16.

Korea was unable to tie the game at 1-1 until overtime,

and won 4-2 in a penalty shootout,

barely advancing to the quarterfinals. 바카라사이트

The opponent in the quarterfinals is Australia.

This is the team with the best physique among the participating countries in this tournament.

However, Australia won 4-0 in the 90-minute regular time against Indonesia two days ago, on the 28th.

The match between Korea and Australia kick off at 6:30 PM on the 2nd of next month (0:30 AM on the 3rd in Korean time).

In Korea, game day comes after two days of rest.

On the other hand, Australia can rest for four days.

In this situation, it is a big bad news that Korea had to go to a penalty shootout.

When asked how to overcome this physical problem,

Coach Klinsmann said, “There is not a lot of time left.

“It’s a long time to make a difference,” he said.

“Today’s victory can give positive and bright energy to the team atmosphere.”

“I’m happy to be with these players,” he said.

Coach Klinsmann said he had no complaints about the schedule itself,

which had a two-day gap in rest time between the two teams that reached the quarterfinals.

Manchini ‘Leave Work Early’ After ‘Bit Hyun-woo’s Good Showing’

Asian Cup Manchini ‘Leave Work Early’ After ‘Bit Hyun-woo’s Good Showing’… Top 8 Contributor

Cho Hyun-woo made two consecutive saves in the round of 16 penalty shootout against Saudi Arabia, filling in the gap of ‘No. 1 GK’ Kim Seung-gyu,

who left the national team due to injury, and gave a perfect score.

Spider Hand’ Cho Hyun-woo (Ulsan)’s brilliant penalty shoot-out save helped the Korean national soccer team,

led by Coach Jurgen Klinsmann, advance to the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup. 스포츠토토

In the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Round of 16 match against Saudi Arabia held at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on the 31st (Korean time)

Jo Hyun-woo was tied 1-1 after 120 minutes of overtime,

and in the subsequent penalty shootout,

two of the opposing kickers were defeated.

He blocked the shot and led Korea to advance to the quarterfinals.

On this day, Korea gave up the first goal to Saudi Arabia’s Abdullah Radif shortly after the start of the second half,

but Cho Gyu-seong (Midtjylland) scored an equalizer with a header in extra time in the second half,

sending the game into overtime.

Even in overtime, both teams remained scoreless,

and the game eventually went to a penalty shootout.

In the penalty shootout that started with Saudi Arabia taking the lead,

the first and second kickers of both teams hit the net, making it 2-2.

Saudi’s third kicker, Sami Al-Nazui, kicked into the left corner of the goal,

and Cho Hyun-woo, who read the direction,

fell to the side and made a save with his knee.

kicked low toward the corner of the goal, but this time,

Cho Hyun-woo, who read the direction, dived and blocked the ball.

After Cho Hyun-woo showed off two brilliant saves in a row,

Korea’s fourth kicker, Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), scored,

completing a 4-2 penalty shootout win and confirming their advancement to the quarterfinals.

‘Controversial’ Klinsmann needs win against Saudi Arabia to stay afloat

South Korea’s soccer reputation is not the only one in tatters after rivals Japan thrashed Germany ahead of the Asian Cup next January. Jürgen Klinsmann’s men’s national soccer team is facing a desperate need to get its first win in its sixth A match against Saudi Arabia, which is effectively a “preview of the 카지노사이트 Asian Cup.

Klinsmann’s men will face the Saudis in a friendly at St. James’ Park in Newcastle, England, on Sept. 13 at 1:30 a.m. ET. South Korea is ranked 28th in the FIFA rankings, while Saudi Arabia is 54th, and while the Koreans may seem to have the upper hand, the head-to-head record is 17-4, with seven wins, seven draws and six losses. The Saudis also defeated eventual champions Argentina 2-1 in the group stage of last year’s World Cup in Qatar.

The game against Saudi Arabia is a tune-up for the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup next January. The Saudis lost 1-3 to Costa Rica on Aug. 8, but showed their strengths in the midfield by winning possession (60%). Not only are the Saudis in the midst of a five-match winless streak, but newly appointed Italian national team coach Roberto Mancini is also expected to bring his full force to bear against South Korea after a poor debut against Costa Rica.

The pressure is only going to get more intense for Klinsmann. Japan (No. 20) won their third straight A-match with a convincing 4-1 away win over Germany (No. 15) on Oct. 10 and have scored a whopping 16 goals in their last five matches (three wins, one draw, one loss). South Korea, by comparison, are winless in five games (three draws and two losses) and have scored a meager four goals. The tactics used against Wales (0-0 draw) will not be enough to win against Saudi Arabia. Playing a de facto 4-2-4 formation, South Korea failed to dominate the center of the field and were unable to generate much offense. That’s why they only had one shot on target.

They need to take advantage of Son Heung-min (Tottenham), who scored a hat trick while playing up top for his club. In the midfield, the team needs a defensive midfielder who can control the tempo and prepare for counterattacks. Above all, we need to see a clear tactical approach to the attack. Klinsmann’s ‘hard line’ theory will be given a lot of weight if the team fails to meet expectations in Saudi Arabia. He has been criticized for requesting jerseys from opposing players and being suspected of playing in the Legends Match. He should look to his own country as a cautionary tale. Following the World Cup in Qatar, Germany sacked Hanji Flick after losing two consecutive games to Japan in an exhibition match. This is the first time in the 123-year history of German soccer.

Klinsmann Lake is not the only crisis…Hwang Sun Hong Ho in crisis, Myanmar war needs both content and outcome

It’s not just Klinsmann that soccer fans are worried about. They’re also worried about the Olympic team’s Hwang Sun-hong, who has shown flashes of brilliance against lesser teams. Turning this around will require a combination of results and content.

The South Korean Olympic football team, 홀덤사이트 led by Hwang Sun-hong, will face Myanmar in the final Group B match of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) 2024 U-23 Asian Cup qualifiers at 8 p.m. on Wednesday at the Changwon Football Center.

The 2024 U-23 Asian Cup will be held in Qatar next year and will serve as the final qualifier for the Paris Olympics in the same year. South Korea was drawn in the same group as U-23 Asian Cup hosts Qatar, Kyrgyzstan and Myanmar. All of these teams are considered to be a step below Korea, so a sweep seemed like a given.

However, the team suffered an embarrassing 0-2 defeat in their first match against Qatar. It was an embarrassing result, even if it didn’t count, as Qatar automatically qualified for the U-23 Asian Cup as hosts.

After the initial blow, Korea looked to turn things around in the second game against Kyrgyzstan. Hong Yun-sang (Pohang) opened the scoring in the third minute of the first half, but what was expected to be a high-scoring game turned out to be a frustrating affair as the Koreans were unable to find the back of the net and ended up with a 1-0 victory.

South Korea, whose mood sank further after their first two games, will need to get both a result and a point in the final match against Myanmar to save face. A draw against Myanmar will be enough to qualify for the U-23 Asian Cup, but a lackluster performance against one of the weakest teams in Southeast Asia will only increase fan criticism of a team that has lost credibility.

Against Qatar and Kyrgyzstan, South Korea showed a significant lack of precision in their attack. They had a high rate of “wasted possession,” with more backpasses and sideways passes than forward passes. Poor buildup at the back also gave the opposition a chance to counterattack.

The national team’s offense has a lot of unique players, including Um Ji Sung and Heo Yul (Gwangju), Jung Sang Bin (Minnesota), and Hong Yun Sang. In order to utilize them, a certain amount of bold passing is required, as well as unconventional moves that can catch opponents off guard. If there is a repeat of the previous sluggishness against Myanmar, fans will be looking at Hwang Sun-hong even more frostily.
