The South Korean national soccer team is facing a European team for the first time in nearly 10 months. It will be the first time they have faced a European team since playing Portugal (2-1 win) in their final Group H match at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
South Korea has played its last four friendlies at home. Coincidentally, they have all been against South American teams. In March, South Korea drew 2-2 with Colombia and lost 1-2 to Uruguay. In June, they lost 0-1 to Peru and drew 1-1 with El Salvador. Jürgen Klinsmann hasn’t won a game in his four games in charge, drawing two and losing two.
Klinsmann will be looking for his first win on the road in Europe. On Aug. 8 (ET), they will face Wales in an away trial at Cardiff City Stadium in Wales. Masu-girl will be looking for a win to end a five-match winless streak (two draws and three losses). English Premier League (EPL) Tottenham Hotspur’s ‘Captain’ Son Heung-min, who recently exploded for a hat-trick, will be in the hunt for a win away from home.
A win is a must. Klinsmann has yet to win a game since his appointment and has been embroiled in a “work from home” controversy. Major media outlets are also questioning Klinsmann’s decision. The BBC reported that Klinsmann could be sacked if he fails to pick up a win in the next two European games.
Klinsmann’s primary goal is 토스카지노 to win the Asian Cup in Qatar next January. The prospects are not promising. The tournament will be held in the Middle East, and the team will have to contend with an away disadvantage. It’s not going to be easy, with the likes of Saudi Arabia and Iran, as well as the home team, Qatar, in recent years. The team will need to make the most of this valuable opportunity to prepare for the Asian Cup by playing away trials in Europe.
South Korea will face Saudi Arabia in a friendly in Newcastle, England on the 13th after the Wales game. It will be interesting to see if Klinsmann’s men can turn things around with their first win on the road in Europe.
