Son Heung-min (31, Tottenham) was an attacker without one, but the effect was more than -1.
The Korean national soccer team, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann (59), lost 0-1 against Peru in an A-match evaluation match held at the Busan Asiad Main Stadium at 8:00 pm on the 16th.
As a result, Klinsman, who failed to win his first victory with 1 draw and 1 loss in the two matches held in March, did not win this match either.
The absence of Son Heung-min and Kim Min-jae was painful. At the beginning of the game, the defense was shaky and the offense was not finished.
Park Ji-soo and Jung Seung-hyun, who replaced Kim Min-jae and Kim Young-kwon, conceded a goal to Brian Reina in the 11th minute of the first half, and then concentrated on their bodies and blocked the shot. However, it was not released from the attack and could not avoid defeat.
Prior to the game, on the 13th, the Korea Football Association (KFA) announced the fact of Son Heung-min’s surgery, saying, “Son Heung-min underwent minor sports hernia surgery in England after the last Tottenham League game on May 29. He is recovering.”
In response, coach Klinsman mentioned Hwang Hee-chan and Oh Hyun-gyu as replacements for Son Heung-min at an official press conference held on the 15th, saying, “I will be on the bench” regarding Son Heung-min’s participation.
Lee Kang-in, who started with the two players, showed agile movements, sharp passes, powerful shots, and even a surprising header, but Son Heung-min’s vacancy was larger than expected.
Son Heung-min has more meaning than ‘captain’ in the national team. It was like that even when Paulo Bento led it in the past, but under the guidance of coach Klinsman, he is in the middle of the attacking second line and plays a free role.
Sometimes he goes up to the front and finishes with a direct shot, and sometimes he comes down and acts as a stepping stone between the midfield and the front. He also puts in the final pass towards his teammate.
Son Heung-min performs more than one person in the attack with powerful shooting, accurate free kicks and corner kicks, passes that poke teammates in attack situations, and fast dribbles that can drive the opponent’s defense.
Son Heung-min’s vacancy in the national team was more than one vacancy.
On the other hand, Son Heung-min, who met after the game, said, “The players fought in a difficult environment. The result is regrettable, but the fact that the coach gave young players and new players a chance was a new experience.” did.토토사이트
He said, “There were players who got along well and there were things to improve. But I think we made a lot of good scenes in the second half. I hope we get good results in the next game.”
When asked about his current physical condition, Son Heung-min said, “I don’t know. Not yet.” He said that he regretted not being able to participate in the A match.
He said, “I wanted to show my best and favorite play, but I feel regretful. There is still a lot of time left until Tuesday (20th),” adding that he hopes to play in the match against El Salvador to be held at Daejeon World Cup Stadium on the 20th.
