North Korea wins its second straight game to advance to the round of 16.

North Korea’s men’s national soccer team, led by head coach Kim Jong-nam, won their second Group F match of the Hangzhou Asian Games 1-0 against Kyrgyzstan at the Jinhua Zhejiang Provincial Sabodae East Stadium in Jinhua, Zhejiang province, China on Wednesday. Kim Kuk-jin scored the game-winning goal in the 20th minute to secure the victory. With their second straight win, the DPRK secured the top spot in Group F and a spot in the Round of 16. North Korea defeated Chinese Taipei 2-0 in the first leg on Sept. 19. Meanwhile, Chinese Taipei, which lost to North Korea in the first round, bounced back with a 1-0 win over Indonesia. Taiwan and Indonesia each have one win and one loss. Kyrgyzstan has two losses. If North Korea finishes first in Group F, they could face South Korea in the final. On the other hand, if they finish second in Group F, they will face South Korea in the round of 16. South Korea clinched their spot in the round of 16 with back-to-back wins over Kuwait and Thailand.

North Korea stuck with the same starting lineup against Chinese Taipei. The plan seemed to be to clinch the round of 16 early. “We prove it with results,” said Shin. The results will prove (our ability). On the field, the winner is the winner,” Shin said.

The lid was lifted. Once again, North Korea exploded for an early goal. Kim Kook Jin opened the scoring in the 20th minute. It was the second straight game that Kim has scored. He scored in the 12th minute of the first half against Chinese Taipei. With a 1-0 lead, North Korea didn’t let up. Kyrgyzstan’s frustratingly rough play led to a series of yellow cards. North Korea stayed focused until the end to seal the win. On this day, North Korea had a “one-shot-one-kill” offense, converting just one shot on goal. Kyrgyzstan hung their heads in shame, unable to get a single shot off.

North Korea was a force to be reckoned with in its return to international competition. North Korea hasn’t been seen on the international stage since the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games. It unilaterally withdrew from the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, citing COVID-19. It was suspended by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The suspension was lifted on Dec. 31 last year.

After a period of silence, North Korea has been slowly making its way back into international competition this year. It has registered a total of 191 athletes – 112 women and 79 men – in 18 events.

In soccer alone, it was North Korea’s first international appearance in three years and eight months. It’s been three years and eight months since North Korea last competed at the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U-23 tournament in January 2020. “We haven’t played in an international tournament for about four years (actually three years and eight months),” Shin said. We trained well domestically and maintained the potential and ability of our team through matches between (domestic) teams. I can’t define our strengths because the tournament is still ongoing. Everything is proved by the results. We trained a lot for this tournament.”온라인바카라

Meanwhile, North Korean supporters wearing matching white T-shirts drew attention to the stadium. North Korea also drew attention in the first game against Taiwan when a group of four women came to the soccer field. In the second game, more people showed up to support the team.

Was it really an injury?

The Hangzhou Asian Games baseball team has made another player change. On March 22, the team announced that it was replacing pitcher Lee Yi-ri. The team explained that Lee is recovering from an injury, but the team believes that he will not be able to perform at his best during the Games.

However, Lee, who the team noted was “recovering from an injury,” sprayed the ball on the mound a day earlier. Lee made his debut against Daejeon Hanwha on the 21st and pitched 1⅔ innings. Lee made his return after skipping the starting rotation on the 10th due to blisters on his fingers. If Lee was “recovering from an injury,” as the national team described it, there was no way he should have pitched that day, and KIA irresponsibly put a player on the mound who wasn’t fully recovered, much less on the national team for an international tournament. “There is nothing wrong with Lee’s physical condition. The blisters have healed,” the club said.

Against Hanwha, Lee left the mound early after giving up five runs (four earned) on two hits, three walks and three strikeouts while striking out five. It wasn’t pretty in terms of content. But Lee’s early departure on this day was geared toward pitch count control. “We’re only going to let him throw 30 to 40 pitches,” Kia manager Kim Jong-guk said before Lee’s appearance. It was his first start since returning from injury and he didn’t want to push him too hard before his upcoming national team call-up. Lee threw 45 pitches, more than Kim’s stated limit of 40, before heading to the bench. This is definitely not the look of a player whose finger hasn’t healed.

Ryu Jung-il, the national baseball team’s head coach, and Cho Kye-hyun, the chairman of the National Strength and Conditioning Committee, were on hand to watch Lee pitch. In addition to Lee, Noh Si-hwan (Hanwha) and Choi Won-jun (KIA), who are on the verge of joining the national team, were also in attendance, but the focus was on Lee’s pitching in his first start since returning from injury.

What to make of Lee’s substitution a day after the on-field inspection.

Looking back at the reasons given by the national team for the change, it seems that it was more of a “difficulty in performing at his best during the tournament” rather than an “injury recovery” reason. On the 21st, the team replaced Koo Chang-mo with Kim Young-gyu (NC), stating, “If it is determined that the performance of other players has decreased due to injury, we will closely examine their physical condition and make additional substitutions.” As a result, it seems that from the time of replacing Koo Chang-mo, the team left the possibility of replacing Lee Yi-ri open to some extent and started the final spot check.

In the meantime, even if a player selected to the national team shows a poor performance when an international tournament is imminent, ‘it is not possible to replace him due to poor performance, not injury’. However, in this case, poor performance seems to have played a decisive role. The national team chose to break its own rules.

It’s understandable that there’s a lot of pressure on a national team coach to get the best out of their players, and it’s a lot of pressure to play a card you’re not sure about. However, there is a question mark over whether it is right to announce a substitution at the last minute, just one day before a call-up, for a reason that does not fit the facts (injury).

For an athlete to be dropped just one day before a once-in-a-lifetime challenge is irreparable. KIA, which has been taking special care of Lee’s body in anticipation of the Asian Games, is also devastated.스포츠토토

This time, the national team decided to select three players for each team. LG (Go Woo-seok Moon Bo-kyung Jung Woo-young), NC (Kim Hyung-joon Kim Young-gyu Kim Joo-won), and Samsung (Kim Sung-yoon Kim Ji-chan Won Tae-in) have reached the threshold. The rest of the teams will need to find replacements. However, in the midst of the final standings battle, clubs are forced to make “sacrifices” when they suddenly have to release players a day before the call-up. The rationale for the substitution is lost in the process.

Will fans be able to see Son Heung-min captain Tottenham for many more years?

“Tottenham are in talks with Son Heung-min to extend his contract,” British outlet 90min reported on Nov. 21 (KST).

The Tottenham captain has been with the club for nine consecutive seasons, having joined the club ahead of the 2015/16 season. After struggling in his first season with the club, he was linked with a move to Wolfsburg in Germany, but was persuaded to stay by then-manager Mauricio Pochettino. He went from strength to strength, and before he knew it, he was named Tottenham’s 41st captain this season, his ninth with the club. This is the first time in the club’s 141 years of existence. He is the first player from outside of continental Europe to captain the club, but in just one month, he has transformed Tottenham under his leadership and helped guide the club to the top of the table.

Having signed a new four-year contract with Tottenham just before the 2021/22 season, Son is now guaranteed to be at Spurs for around two years until the summer of 2025.

With the departure of Harry Kane, Tottenham have been working quickly to re-sign Son, who has excelled in both the ace and captaincy roles of the team.

“Tottenham are reportedly looking to tie captain Son Heung-min to a new long-term deal, according to 90min. He is entering his ninth season at Spurs and is the club’s sixth all-time leading scorer. He has more than 18 months left on his contract, which runs until 2025, but Spurs are understood to have decided to offer him an extension,” the report said, breaking the news of Tottenham’s preparations to negotiate a new deal for Son Heung-min.

“According to reports, negotiations are expected to reach an agreement by Christmas, but it is also understood that the deal could be finalized in the coming weeks,” he added, suggesting that news of a new deal could come sooner than expected.

“Tottenham wanted to know how Ange Postecoglou and Son were getting on before discussing a new deal, and it seems that the two have a good relationship, which has allowed talks to move quickly,” the outlet said, explaining the close relationship between Postecoglou and captain Son.

According to reports, Postecoglou attended a recent Tottenham fan forum in England and was full of praise for Son. “I thought from the beginning that Sonny (Son’s nickname) would be a good captain,” Postecoglou said. “It was a very easy decision, because he’s a good player, but he also has a good rapport with the players and has spent a lot of time with the team,” he added.

“I’ve known Son Heung-min for a long time. I’m from Asia, and I’ve worked in Asia and seen his position. Everyone said they respected him. Whether it’s teammates or opponents, everyone really appreciated him,” he said, adding that he had good things to say about Son.

From Tottenham’s perspective, it’s never too early to consider re-signing Son. In addition to his versatility, Son has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia throughout this summer’s transfer window.

During last summer’s transfer window, some media outlets reported that “Saudi clubs will target several more names. They have already made a tentative list. The list includes Son Heung-min and Robert Lewandowski,” reporting on Son’s possible move to the Middle East next summer.

Some media outlets reported that “Son has been offered a contract by Saudi Arabian league side Al-Ittihad that includes a salary of around €30 million per season for four years. Son is a Saudi target for 2024 and work is reportedly already underway. Son will enter the final year of his contract with Tottenham in the summer of 2024, with some reports claiming that the South Korean is ready to leave the Premier League, and even revealing specific salary levels and plans.

However, Son dismissed speculation of a move to Saudi Arabia in pre-season, and has since reiterated his desire to stay at Spurs. “If I wanted to go (to Saudi Arabia), I wouldn’t be here. I love playing football. Money is important, but it’s a dream to play in the Premier League,” he said, referring to his desire to stay in the Premier League.

“It’s really interesting that so many people are going there. But the Premier League is still a dream for me, and I’m looking forward to this season,” he said, adding that he would rather stay in the Premier League than move to Saudi Arabia.

In response to Son’s comments at the Perth press conference, Tottenham fans said, “Make him captain, he wants to be at Tottenham,” and “We love him. We are lucky to have him in the team” and “He is every manager’s dream”. Son has since been named captain of the team for the 2023/24 season, filling the void left by Harry Kane.

In light of this, Tottenham are now preparing to tie him down to a long-term contract in order to close the door on the possibility of an exit.

Meanwhile, Son has shown both skill and leadership since being named Tottenham’s captain, and he has the support of the fans and players, so keeping him for the time being will help keep the team together.

In the last match against Sheffield Wednesday, Son looked to take care of Philippe Coutinho, who has been struggling with personal issues as of late.

“On the pitch, I’m a happy teammate,” he said in an interview with the Brazilian national team. I try to help as much as I can, but sometimes things don’t go the way we want,” he said, adding, “I think it’s the off-field aspects that have been holding me back. You want to do things right, but they end up going wrong. I will continue to focus on the club. The storm has passed,” he said.

He added: “I’ve had a turbulent time off the pitch in the last five months. Everything is back to normal now,” he said, adding: “All the people who were only interested in my money have left me. I’m sure things will go back to normal now and I’ll get a great opportunity at Tottenham and make things good again.”

“I’m going to go back to England and see a psychologist to get some psychological help,” he added, “and then I’ll come back stronger. I believe I will be in the next Brazilian national team. I will work for it,” he added.

When he returned to Tottenham and scored the winner, Son pushed him to the front of the line during the post-match celebration to help him receive the support of the fans.

In his post-match interview, Heung-min said, “I know he’s had a tough season and a tough time. But I’m very happy right now. I’m probably happier than him. We needed him as a team, he has really good qualities, and he’s very confident. I wanted to give him the big consolation that he deserves,” he said, adding that he was even happier for the Frenchman’s goal.바카라

“We celebrate because we are part of a family. He’s a strong player, he has a good character, he can always come back. But when it’s hard, you need good people around you. I will always try to be his friend and if he needs anything, I can help him with my experience or my play,” he added.

He also spoke about the team spirit within Tottenham following their recent run of form: “When someone falls behind, we all reach out to each other and everyone is willing to do that. It’s made us really strong as a team and as a squad. We’re getting really close, and hopefully we can get even closer,” he said, emphasizing that the squad is strong as a unit.

Tottenham fans responded to the interview with praise on social media, saying, “Son Heung-min you are a good captain and a good friend,” “He thinks about the team with all his heart,” “He is the best captain ever,” and “Son Heung-min is a true leader.”

With Son now the undisputed leader of the team, it will be interesting to see how his journey with Spurs continues this season.

Tottenham will host Arsenal in the North London derby in the sixth round of the Premier League on April 24 at 10 p.m. ET at the Emirates Stadium in London.

A win would clinch a spot in the round of 16 atop the group. Coach Hwang Sun-hong has drawn all three wild cards.

Head coach Hwang Sun-hong’s Hangzhou 2023 Asian Games men’s football team will take on Thailand in its second Group E match at 8:30 p.m. tonight (Jan. 21) at the Jinhua Sports Center in China.

An aggressive lineup. Head coach Hwang Sun-hong started strikers Park Jae-yong (Jeonbuk Hyundai) and Ahn Jae-joon (Bucheon FC1995) at the same time. Ko Young-joon (Pohang Steelers), Uhm Won-sang (Ulsan Hyundai), Hong Hyun-seok (KAA Gent), and Baek Seung-ho (Jeonbuk) will line up in the midfield. Seol Young-woo (Ulsan), Park Jin-seop (Jeonbuk), Lee Jae-ik (Seoul Eland), and Hwang Jae-won (Daegu FC) will be the back four. Lee Kwang-yeon (Gangwon FC) will wear the goalkeeping gloves.

Hwang Sun-hongho included all three wild cards (Baek Seung-ho, Park Jin-seop, and Seol Young-woo) in the starting lineup. Seol Young-woo came on as a substitute in the first leg. He warmed up in the second half, assisting on Park Jae-yong’s goal.

Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) was left off the roster. Lee flew into Hangzhou, China, from Incheon International Airport on Nov. 21 and immediately left the airport for the Jinhua Sports Center Stadium in Jinhua, China, where the national team will play Thailand in its second Group E match. He could have chosen to rest, but he chose to travel to the stadium to integrate into the team as soon as possible.

The push is on. Lee came on as a substitute in Paris Saint-Germain’s UEFA Champions League (UCL) first leg against Borussia Dortmund on Oct. 20. In his return from injury, Lee played 10 minutes of the second half to check his fitness.

Upon arriving in Hangzhou, Lee laughed off the topic of his injury, saying, “It’s a secret (the extent of his injury).” As for his Asian Games aspirations, he said, “I will definitely try to do well against players who are younger than me.”

Hwang Sun-hong has a good chance of advancing to the round of 16. The Hangzhou 2023 Asian Games men’s football team cruised to a 9-0 victory over Kuwait in their first Group E match at the Jinhua Sports Center in China at 8:30 p.m. on Monday night.

It was a one-sided affair. South Korea scored four goals in the first half and five in the second to dominate the Kuwaitis, who were never in danger throughout the match.

German Bundesliga player Jung Woo-young (Stuttgart) was on fire with a hat trick. Captain Baek Seung-ho scored a fantastic free-kick goal and showed excellent game management skills. Cho Young-wook (Gimcheon Commerce) added to the victory with a multi-goal performance. Uhm Won-sang, Park Jae-yong, and Ahn Jae-joon also joined the scoring fray, capping off Hwang’s big win.온라인바카라

On the same day, Thailand and Bahrain in Group E tied 1-1. Bahrain also drew 1-1 with Kuwait in their second Group E match. With a win against Thailand, South Korea will clinch a spot in the round of 16 as the group’s top seed.

The Korean national soccer team has won five Asian Games titles (1970, 1978, 1986, 2014, 2018), the most of any country in history. They won back-to-back titles in Busan in 2014 and Jakarta-Palembang in 2018. South Korea, led by Hwang Sun-hong, will become the first team in the history of the tournament to win three consecutive titles.

LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop cheered on his players as they head to the Hangzhou Asian Games.

LG will play its final game of the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League season against SSG Landers on Nov. 21 at SSG Landers Field in Incheon.

LG’s batting order was Hong Chang-ki (right fielder), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (designated hitter), Austin Dean (first baseman), Oh Ji-hwan (shortstop), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Park Dong-won (catcher), Moon Sung-joo (left fielder), and Park Hae-min (center fielder).

LG’s starting pitcher is foreign-born pitcher Casey Kelley. Kelley is 8-7 with a 4.17 ERA in 27 games this season.

She hasn’t won since a six-inning no-hitter against Lotte on March 24. His last start was against SSG, where he struggled with four runs in 5⅓ innings on April 16.

Before the game, manager Yoon Kyung-yeop left a message of support for the players who will be traveling to the Hangzhou Asian Games. For LG, Jung Woo-young, Ko Woo-seok (pitcher) and infielder Moon Bo-kyung wore the Korean flag.

The team will convene after the game on Feb. 22 and begin its first training session at the Gocheok Dome on Feb. 23. They will hold their final training session in Korea on the 27th before departing for Hangzhou on the 28th.

Coach Yeom said, “I hope they do well. Everyone should go when they are in good shape. Bo-kyung and Woo Seok-i go when they are at their best, and Woo Young-i has prepared a lot. She’s much better than when she’s not. They will do a great job for the national team. I hope they do their best and win the gold medal.”메이저놀이터

Moon is batting 5-for-1 in her last 10 games. Ko Woo-seok has recorded three consecutive scoreless innings and two consecutive saves.

Gangneung Citizens’ Football Team head coach Bang Ho-jin perfectly filled the vacancy left by coach Kim Do-geun and brought victory in the Chuncheon away game.

The Gangneung Citizens’ Football Team, with head coach Bang Ho-jin sitting on the bench, won 2-0 against the Chuncheon Citizens’ Football Team in the 22nd round of the ‘2023 K3 League’ held at the Chuncheon Songam Sports Town Main Stadium on the 13th. Gangneung, who added 3 points with this win, rose to 10th place in the league with 26 points.

On this day, heavy rain fell at Chuncheon Songam Sports Town’s main stadium even before the game started, signaling an underwater battle. Even after the game started, the rain did not subside and continued to fall heavily, and both teams faced off strongly at a fast tempo from the beginning.

Gangneung scored the first goal. In the 29th minute of the first half, in a corner kick situation, Lee Ji-hwan’s sharp left-footed cross was converted into a header by Lee Dae-kwang. Han Boo-seong put his head to clear it, and it went straight into the Chuncheon goal, scoring an own goal.

In the 46th minute of the first half, Gangneung scored an additional goal to widen the lead. Players from both teams clashed with Lee Ji-hwan’s free kick, and Jeon Hyo-seok cleared it, but it did not go far. Yoon Dong-kwon rushed in from behind and finished with a left-footed shot, scoring an additional goal for Gangneung.

Gangneung, looking for an additional goal in the second half, and Chuncheon, trying to turn the game around, fought hard, but neither team was able to score, and Gangneung saved the two goals scored in the first half and took 3 points in the away game.

After the game, Gangneung head coach Bang Ho-jin said, “Our performance has been poor recently, so we worked hard together to win this game. “I’m really happy that everything I worked hard to prepare paid off and I got a good result,” he said, leaving a general review of the game.

As coach Bang said, Gangneung has not won in the last four games. However, the victory on this day succeeded in turning the atmosphere around. In response, Coach Bang said, “Today’s game was a life-or-death game for us,” and added, “Because we achieved good results in this game, I think we can keep this momentum and win the next game.”카지노

On this day, coach Kim Do-geun was not on Gangneung’s bench. Head coach Bang Ho-jin led the team as he briefly left the team to attend a P-level leader training course. Coach Bang said, “Coach Kim Do-geun was away for P-level training,” and “Although the director was away, we continued to communicate and share opinions. He explained, “Both the players and the coaching staff received strength because they helped us in many ways.”

Lastly, Coach Bang said, “I hope that we play as well as we thought without any injuries in the remaining games. “We have a lot of home games left, so I want to win as many games as possible and give joy to the fans,” he said.

Pittsburgh Pirates Bae Ji-hwan returned after two days of rest due to an unclear ball decision, but failed to produce a hit.

Bae Ji-hwan started as a second baseman and first hitter in the 2023 Major League Baseball match against the Chicago Cubs held at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois, USA on the 20th (Korean time) and recorded no hits in four at-bats.

Bae Ji-hwan, whose hitting and performance were not bad recently, took a break by only appearing as a defensive back against the New York Yankees on the 18th. And because there was no game the day before (19th), he returned to the starting lineup after two consecutive days of recovery, but he failed to produce a hit and was silent. His season batting average dropped from 0.239 to 0.236.

Bae Ji-hwan faced Cubs starter Javier Assad in his first at-bat as the leadoff hitter in the top of the first inning. Bae Ji-hwan threw his bat out for an 89.6 mile (approximately 144.2 km) cutter formed outside the strike zone in 2B-2S, but started the game with a missed swing and a strikeout.

The result of his second at-bat was also disappointing. Bae Ji-hwan filtered out Assad’s 1st to 3rd pitches, which were out of control, and then looked at the 4th pitch, a four-seam fastball that hit the top of the strike zone. And with the hitting timing of 3B-1S, the 90.6 mile (approximately 145.8km) sinker was driven into the middle of the strike zone on the fifth pitch, and this time it was a grounder to first base.

There were no hits even in the middle of the game. Bae Ji-hwan once again faced Assad in his third at-bat in the top of the fifth inning, and swung his bat vigorously at the high sinker on the sixth pitch at a full count of 3B-2S. Bae Ji-hwan’s batted ball, which flew at a speed of 95.9 miles (about 154.3 km), flew 358 feet (about 109.1 m), but he swallowed his regret as it was caught by the center fielder in front of the center fence.

In his last at-bat, he cried at the umpire’s unclear decision. Ji-hwan Bae faced the Cubs’ new pitcher, Mark Reiter Jr., in the top of the 8th inning. With a full count of 3B-2S, Reiter Jr.’s cutter on the 6th pitch went far outside the strike zone. But here the referee declared a strike.

Reiter Jr. is a right-handed pitcher, and since the ball did not sweep past the strike zone, it could not have been an absurd decision from Bae Ji-hwan’s perspective. Bae Ji-hwan completed all his duties in the attack that day, indirectly expressing his regret by throwing his head back when the referee called a strikeout.

The game that day was a complete victory for the Cubs. The Cubs took the lead early in the first inning, with Dansby Swanson hitting a two-run shot at first base with no outs due to a walk by Nico Horner. And the scoring streak continued. After Christopher Morrell’s walk in the second inning, the Cubs widened the gap to 4-0 with Patrick Wisdom hitting an RBI double and Horner hitting a sacrifice fly.메이저사이트

Pittsburgh also started chasing. Pittsburgh narrowed the gap in the top of the third inning with two outs and no runners on base, with Key Brian Hayes hitting a solo home run. Then, in the bottom of the third inning, with one out and no runner on base, Seiya Suzuki hit a solo home run to maintain a four-run lead. 19th home run of the season.

The Cubs won the game in the bottom of the 6th inning when Alexander Canario hit a 1-run double with 2 outs and runners on first base due to Ian Happ’s walk. And the Canarios added a whopping 8 runs, including a grand slam in the 8th inning and Cody Bellinger’s three-run home run, winning 14-1. The Cubs, who are competing for the National League wild card, succeeded in breaking away from a long five-game losing streak with a win that day.

Professional baseball Kiwoom ace Ahn Woo-jin (24) undergoes surgery in the United States.

Kiwoom announced on the 20th, “Ahn Woo-jin will undergo elbow ligament joint surgery at the Kelan-Jove Clinic in Los Angeles, California, USA on the 21st (Korean time).”

The surgeon in charge of Ahn Woo-jin’s surgery is Dr. Neil Elatrace, a leading doctor in the American sports world. Ryu Hyun-jin (Toronto Blue Jays) also entrusted Dr. Elatrace with shoulder labrum surgery in 2015, elbow debridement surgery in 2016, and Tommy John surgery last year.

Ahn Woo-jin felt discomfort in his arm after the Incheon SSG game on the 31st of last month (5 hits, 1 run in 6 innings), so he underwent a detailed examination and was diagnosed with damaged elbow ligaments.메이저사이트

Ahn Woo-jin, who won the KBO Golden Glove in the pitcher category last year with 15 wins, 8 losses, 224 strikeouts, and an ERA of 2.11, left an outstanding record of 9 wins, 7 losses, 164 strikeouts, and an ERA of 2.39 this year.

Ahn Woo-jin plans to return to Kiwoom after completing military service during his rehabilitation period. This is because it takes about 12 to 18 months for a player who has undergone elbow ligament fusion surgery to return to the mound. Ahn Woo-jin will take some time to recover after undergoing surgery in the United States, and then return to Korea immediately to begin rehabilitation training.

All eyes will be on Seol Young-woo for the first match of the Hangzhou 2022 Asian Games against Kuwait.

Seol has a tough schedule ahead of him. He’s a key player for both Ulsan Hyundai and the Korea A team. Even during the K League break, Seol was sent to Team K League to play full-time against Atlético Madrid and the Coupang Players League. If he hadn’t been granted a rest against Jeju United on July 21, he would have played nonstop since June against El Salvador.

In September, he played full-time in both A matches. Coach Jürgen Klinsmann said of Seol, “After the Wales game, if there are no special circumstances such as injuries, conditions or performances of other players, we will cooperate with him to make him part of the Asian Games squad as much as possible,” but he was not given a specific reason to play against Saudi Arabia. Seol showed signs of fatigue at the end of the game, allowing the Saudi attackers to break through.

Seol has already played a lot. Considering that the distance between South Korea and England is around 9,000 kilometers, the plane ride itself is bound to take its toll. Add in the distance between Seoul and Hangzhou and other minor trips, and that’s over 20,000 kilometers in September alone. Add to that the fact that Seol was competing in both South Korea and England, and he didn’t have time to rest his body.

Coach Hwang Sun-hong also took this into consideration. Before departing for Hangzhou on the 16th, he told reporters, “Seol Young-woo needs time to adjust. I plan to go to China and train with him for a few days, and then I will review his physical condition and adaptability and use it,” he said, expressing reservations about using Seol.바카라

If Seol is rested, Hwang Jae-won and Park Kyu-hyun are likely to play at fullback against Kuwait. Hwang Jae-won is Daegu’s natural right back, while Park Kyu-hyun is the first choice at left back in Seol’s absence. Lee Jae-Ik could also play left fullback, but it’s not a realistic option due to the thin depth in the center of the defense, where Park Jin-Seop might have to drop down.

However, with the match against Thailand coming just two days after the Kuwait game, it’s not out of the question that Seol Young-woo could start. With Hwang’s announcement of a rotation between the first and second games, he’ll have to play in one of them. It’s also possible that he could start them in Game 1 and then rest them for Game 3 to give them enough time to recover their fitness.

In this case, we could see Seol Young-woo on the left and Hwang Jae-won on the right. This would be the ideal squad based on their current form, and with the importance of winning the first game, there’s a good chance they’ll be at full strength.

Hyun-Jin Ryu tosses 4.2 scoreless innings vs. Boston on Aug. 18
“Substitutions, no regrets” in Toronto’s 3-2 win

The fifth inning, when the winning pitcher is called upon. One more out and you’re looking at a win. But he had to come off the mound for his team, and while they won, he couldn’t add to the win. Still, he’s not disappointed. He pitched his heart out to help his team win, which is all that matters at this point.

The “Korean Monster” Ryu Hyun-jin, 36, of the Toronto Blue Jays of Major League Baseball (MLB), started a home game against the Boston Red Sox on April 18. He was in trouble several times. In the second and third innings, he had runners on second and third with no outs, and in the fourth inning, he had runners on first and third with no outs, but he didn’t give up a run. It was a jaw-dropping display of crisis management.

In the top of the fifth, with Toronto up 1-0, he faced a tough moment. A single and a walk put runners on first and second with two outs. He had gotten out of three previous jams, but this time he didn’t have a chance. Reliever Yimi Garcia handed the ball over to him. Luckily, Garcia got the next batter out and Ryu didn’t allow an earned run.

One more out and he would have gotten the win. However, Ryu didn’t feel bad about the substitution at all. In his postgame interview, Ryu said, “Every game is very important for the team to advance to the postseason. The players have to accept that (the timing of the substitutions). We have to trust the judgment of the bench.”메이저놀이터

Rather than focusing on what cost them the win, he offered a diagnosis of their performance. “We tried to make their bats weaker,” he said, “and we’ll focus more on the rest of the games to help the team win.” It’s a mature way to analyze your performance and move on to the next pitch, rather than dwell on what cost you the win.

Toronto scored one more run in the bottom of the fifth after Ryu was pulled. However, they tied the game in the seventh and ninth innings with one run apiece, which could have cost them the win even if Ryu had gone five innings. Luckily, the final offense in the bottom of the ninth sealed the deal. In a way, Ryu had the right idea. What’s done is done.
