Vietnam highlighted Son Heung-min’s presence.
The Korean national 바카라 soccer team, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann, will start to warm up in Korea in October after the European away evaluation match in September.
Tunisia has been confirmed as Klinsmann’s opponent for the domestic evaluation match in October, and Vietnam is likely.
Coach Klinsman explained the background of the match, saying, “If we play Asian Cup and World Cup regional qualifiers, we will face Asian teams, and the confrontation with Vietnam can be meaningful in terms of preparing for matches with other types of teams.”
In the situation ahead of the confrontation with South Korea, the Vietnamese media ‘Bongda Plus’ highlighted the presence of Captain Son Heung-min.
Son Heung-min scored 23 goals in 2021/22 and won the English Premier League (EPL) scorer for the first time in Asia.
Naturally, expectations for last season grew. However, due to the aftermath of a facial injury and sports hernia, he was unable to show proper performance, swallowing regret.
‘Bongda Plus’ mentioned, “Son Heung-min was sluggish last season, but one of the reasons was that he wore a mask due to a cheekbone injury and had symptoms of a hernia.”
“Son Heung-min is a player who finishes better than any other striker. Because he uses both feet well, he is always a threat when scoring from any position, both inside and outside the penalty box.”
He continued, “Son Heung-min is 31 years old, but thanks to his strong point, mutant speed, he can tear through the opponent’s defense,” admiring that he can still show his best performance.
On the other hand, criticism continues about Vietnam being decided against Korea’s A match.
It is pointed out that it is necessary to meet with a stronger sparring opponent ahead of the Asian Cup and World Cup regional qualifiers and temper it.
Coach Klinsman said, “I want to play against the best teams in the world, such as Brazil, Argentina, Germany, England and France.”
He expressed his regret, saying, “Nowadays, it is difficult to find an opponent because competitions are held by continent during the A-match period.”
