Seonhongho Hwang, the road to Paris is also not easy
The road to Paris doesn’t seem easy either.
The South Korean Olympic soccer team, led by Hwang Sun-hong, arrived in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on the 5th. However, the first training session will start with 19 players, not 23.
The Korea Football Association reported the check-in of the national team’s accommodation on the 6th. He added that Baek Sang-hoon decided to join after treatment for a knee problem. Among overseas players, Kim Min-woo was the fastest to arrive.
The Korea Football Association said, “Baek Sang-hoon will decide whether to join after observing his recovery after treating a knee injury in Korea.”
It is Hwang Sun-hong who has already made one change in the final 23-man entry. Yang Hyun-joon, who had been highly anticipated, was decided not to be called due to Celtic FC’s team circumstances. As a result, Hong Si-hoo was selected as a substitute.
Through an off-season training camp in Dubai, Hwang will stage a final qualifying match for the 2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U-23 Asian Cup and the 2024 Paris Olympics. He will also play an exhibition game closed with Saudi Arabia and head to Qatar on Wednesday.
Only when he ranks at least fourth place, he will be able to achieve the grand feat of advancing to the Olympics finals for the first 10 consecutive times in world soccer history. If he ranks fourth, he will have to play in a playoff against Guinea by continent, so it is important to rank third or higher.
From the start of the group league, Hwang met fairly strong opponents. Hwang will face UAE, China and Japan one after the other. Only when he wins the matches against UAE and China first, Korea can play the match without any pressure. As such, he is under pressure to play in the first two matches.
In addition, Hwang Sun-hong became the only hope as major ball games continued to fail to advance to the Paris Olympics. If they miss out, it will be a disaster even before the start.
Hwang Seon Hong-ho, who starts with a lot of anticipation and pressure. The dice has been thrown and now he only looks at the result. 파워볼사이트 추천
