In the final round of the second stage of the Asian zone of the World Preliminary Championships, South Korea defeated China 1-0 at home, during the game, South Korean captain Son Heung-min was booed by Chinese fans, and then he made a "3-0" gesture to the stands. After the game, Son Heung-min spoke about the matter in an interview, saying that he did not do what he should have been booed, so he could not accept the boo.

Speaking about the game, Son said: "It wasn't an easy game, but I think we played well and didn't have any dangerous scenes. Patience and calmness are the keys to our victory. Of course, there are also regrets, if we can take more opportunities, the difference may be even greater. However, football is always about the result, and the result can change a lot. I want to say hello to the players and the coaching staff who have worked so hard. Personally, I'm very happy to have the last race of the season in Korea. A big thank you to everyone who supported us. ”

Regarding the response gesture after being booed, Son Heung-min explained after the game: "I didn't act in a home game that deserved to be booed, so I can't accept being booed. I think it's disrespectful to Korean fans. As a Korean player, I want to show something. I think we played a good game and won and that's all that matters. I felt like I was coping well and not being affected. ”

Finally, Son Heung-min spoke about the future style of the national team: "The players think discipline is important in the process of learning football. We've tried a lot of different tactics, but it's important to be clear about where we're going from here. We can learn a lot from the way the club plays football in different directions. I think the most important thing is what kind of football we want to play and what kind of football we should play. We have a lot of talented players, so even if it takes time, it's important to choose a safe path. ”
