Can't win against Palestine Lai Turf? Korea may give up its home stadium in Seoul!
After the 0-0 draw with Palestine, there was a lot of criticism of the Korea team under Hong Myung-bo, but interestingly, the Korea Football Association's strategy to prepare for the next game was not to change the manager, but to blame the turf of the "holy land" Seoul World Cup Arena! On September 6, the Korea Football Association sent a press release to Korean media, informing that the Korea team was preparing to give up fighting at the Seoul World Cup Arena in the later World Preliminary Tournament. The Korea Football Association said: "We think that the turf at the Seoul World Cup Stadium may have affected the performance of the players, and we are looking for ways to improve it, and after the third stage, we are considering repairing the turf of the Seoul World Cup, or completely replacing the stadium with better turf condition." ”
In fact, after the game, players such as Son Heung-min and Lee Gang-in publicly expressed their dissatisfaction with the turf at the Seoul World Cup Arena, and both talked about "the constraints of turf conditions on their own sprints." "According to AFC regulations, even if the home stadium is changed, it must be within 150 kilometers from the international airport and within 2 hours by car. At present, the Korea Football Association has submitted an application to the AFC to change the home stadium, and the home stadium behind the Korea Football Association has been changed from the Seoul World Cup Stadium to "TBD" (TBD).
According to the requirements of the AFC, there are three home stadiums that meet the requirements of the competition: Suwon World Cup Stadium, Incheon Football Stadium and Goyang Multi-sports Stadium, where will the Korea team change? We can only wait. If you change the pitch and the results don't come up, what excuse will you make?
A draw is not a fate! Shen Tailong led Indonesia to draw with Saudi Arabia to win praise
Hong Myung-fu was met with skepticism yesterday after a 0-0 draw at home to Palestine, while another Korea coach who led his team to a first-round draw received praise and applause: Indonesia coach Shin Tae-ryong. In the first round of Group C of the 2026 US-Canada-Mexico World Cup Asian Round of 18 last night, he led the Indonesian national team to a 1-1 draw away from home against the mighty Saudi national team. You know, the most terrifying thing about Saudi Arabia in the previous World Preliminary Tournaments in Asia is the home advantage, and Japan has not even taken advantage of it once.
But Shin Tai Long's team not only saved the opponent's penalty, but even led the opponent for a while, and although it ended up being a draw, it boosted the confidence of the Indonesian team. With the weak and the strong, the Indonesian team may really bring a "catfish effect" to Group C, following the U23 Asian Cup, the "Shin Magic" in the World Preliminary Tournament is looking forward to it again?
Thank you for your kindness, but I'm only loyal to Wolves! Foreign media exposed the reason why Huang Xican stayed in the team
In last night's game against Palestine, striker Hwang Hee-chan, who plays for Wolves in the Premier League, came off the bench and created several chances, but he couldn't find the back of the net. After the game, many media said that Huang Xican should enter the starting lineup. In fact, about Huang Xican, the biggest topic this year is Marseille's unsuccessful attempt to buy him. Recently, the United Kingdom media "The Sun" disclosed the before and after of this transfer, it is reported that Marseille coach De Zerbi called Huang Xican every day, although Huang Xican was very moved, but finally rejected De Zerbi.
The reason for this "refusal" is very simple, Wolves coach O'Neill does not want Huang Xican to leave the team, and he does his job every day. After receiving O'Neal's affirmation and encouragement, Huang Xican took the initiative to call De Zerbi, saying that "although I was very moved by his invitation, I decided to stay in the Wolves team", and in desperation, De Zerbi chose Greenwood. Although Huang Xican did not open a draw this season, and the main position in the league was not guaranteed, he did not regret his decision. I also hope that through the World Preliminaries, he will find the feeling of scoring goals and return to the club to play the familiar "little scalper" again.
