“Why has public opinion worsened? I don’t know exactly.”

I have no idea why the people are angry.

The Korean national soccer team, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann (60), returned to Korea via Incheon International Airport at 9 p.m. on the 8th. On this day, 13 players returned to Korea, including coach Klinsmann, his coaching staff, and Korean Football Association (KFA) staff, as well as Cho Hyun-woo, Song Bum-geun, Kim Young-kwon, Kim Ju-sung, Seol Young-woo, Kim Tae-hwan, Ki-je Lee, Kim Jin-soo, Hwang In-beom, Park Jin-seop, Lee Soon-min, Moon Seon-min, and Kim Jun-hong.

'Klinsmann' was eliminated after losing 0-2 in the semifinals of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup against Jordan at 00:00 on the 7th at Al Rayyan Ahmad bin Ali Stadium in Qatar.

 

As a result, Klinsmann failed to win the Asian Cup for the first time in 64 years. Since taking office in March of last year, Coach Klinsmann has been loudly saying that his goal is to become the top player in Asia, but he has failed to achieve his dream.

Director Klinsmann, who returned to Korea through Incheon International Airport, passed through the gate with a smile on his face as usual. 

It was a performance worthy of being remembered in the history of Korean soccer, and indeed, Asian soccer. It is said that Kim Min-jae was left out due to accumulated warnings, but Korea's defense and performance were miserable. 

Once Musa Al-Tamari and Yazan Al-Naimat caught the ball, they attempted a bold dribble even when there were two or three Korean defenders, and knocked down the defenders one after another. Korea had 12 shots on target in the first half alone. If it weren't for Cho Hyun-woo's save, it wouldn't have been surprising if they had given up two or three goals in the first half.

 

The second half was more serious. In the 8th minute of the second half, Park Yong-woo's passing mistake gave up the first goal to Yazan Alnaimat. In the 21st minute of the second half, Hwang In-beom lost the ball in midfield and scored an additional goal from Musa Altamari. 

After allowing the first goal, Coach Klinsmann called Park Yong-woo to the bench in the 11th minute of the second half and brought in Cho Kyu-seong. In the 36th minute of the second half, Yang Hyun-jun and Jung Woo-young were brought in, and Hwang Hee-chan and Lee Jae-seong were taken out.

There was no dramatic reversal like the round of 16 or quarterfinals. The game ended with a 0-2 loss. The journey of Klinsmann, who was confident that he would win this time, ended earlier.

 

The Korean team is strong enough to be called the strongest of all time. On offense are Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) starter Lee Kang-in, and on defense are world-class defender Kim Min-jae. In addition to these players, there are many players who have played key roles in teams on the European stage, such as Wolverhampton Wanderers' top scorer this season, Hwang Hee-chan, VfB Stuttgart's number 10 Jung Woo-young, and FSV Mainz 05's Lee Jae-seong.

It was also evaluated that Korean soccer was at its peak.

Coach Klinsmann, who failed to win the championship even with such a brilliant lineup and lost to Jordan, who was considered one step below the team in the semifinals, was asked if he understood why Korean soccer fans were angry, and he confidently answered, "I don't know the exact reason."
