The Korean national football team will be playing for the first time since the World Cup.
This is Bento’s first game since he took over as manager of the Korean national team.
This match is receiving the concerns and anticipation of many soccer fans.
First of all, it is expected to be the first game of the new manager.
Amidst the many chaotic situations that Korean football has been experiencing over the past few years, it is a game where there are questions and concerns at the same time whether this manager will confirm the question of whether he will lead at least as well as the national team. 2022년 09월 23일 대한민국 코스타리카
Our team will start this game
We are starting the process of preparing for the Asian Cup to be held in January next year.
It’s a game with a lot of situations.
[Costa Rica, a powerhouse in Latin America]
Costa Rica, which we will be dealing with, is a country belonging to North and Central America along with Mexico and Honduras.
Its population is 4.87 million, which is only 1/10 of that of Korea.
Although it is a relatively small country compared to our country, its soccer skills are quite outstanding.
In the 5 World Cups from 2002 to 2018, except for the 2010 World Cup, they have advanced to the finals of the 4 World Cups.
Especially at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
They are in a group with countries with the right to win, such as Uruguay, Italy and England.
With 2 wins and 1 draw, they advanced to the round of 16 with an overwhelming record.
Costa Rica surprised the world football world by advancing to the quarterfinals in this tournament. 2022년 09월 23일 대한민국 코스타리카
In 2018, they were eliminated from the group stage with 1 draw and 2 losses.
I swallowed regret.
Costa Rica has had a managerial vacancy since the 2018 World Cup.
The acting coach will guide the team even before this evaluation.
[Bento coach, will you win the first match??]
What kind of process and results will coach Bento show’s first match?
First of all, in this match, there is a slight change in the offensive line with the players from the last World Cup.
In the offensive team, Shin-wook Kim was removed from the roster and Ui-jo Hwang replaced him.
Hwang Ui-jo was named in the national team for his performance in this Asian Games. Heung-Min Son and Seung-Woo Lee, etc. have played together in the Asian Games, so it seems that he will be able to adapt to the national team game without difficulty. I’m looking forward to seeing if I can shoot it up. Except for Hwang Ui-jo, almost all the national team’s main pillars are World Cup players.
It is also interesting to see how different tactics Bento will use from his predecessor Shin Tae-yong with a similar composition of players.
As it is the first game of a new coach, the players participating in the game will play aggressively to make a mark on the manager.
The coach will also try to use his tactics to the fullest and win.
As this is the first game in which he is showing his tactics to domestic fans, it would be an added bonus if he could win a good match and win.
Costa Rica’s chaotic situation is also a favorable condition for the Korean national team.
In the first player selection, several key players, including Navas goalkeeper, were excluded from this call-up list.
It looks like our team will win this match.
