BBC “Korea’s loss is Kim Min-jae’s absence” The future of ‘1st year Klinsmann’ was also pointed out.

South Korea coach Jurgen Klinsmann is smiling while looking at the pitch during the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup semifinal match between Jordan and Korea held at Al Rayyan Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in Qatar on the 6th (local time).

The BBC reported on the 6th (local time) that Korea lost 0-2 to Jordan in the Asian Cup semifinals, preventing it from advancing to the finals, and that Korea’s loss was due to poor defense.

The BBC pointed out that while Bayern Munich’s Kim Min-jae was absent due to accumulated warnings, the Korean defense struggled against Jordan, who applied strong pressure from the beginning of the game, and that Kim Min-jae’s absence was significant.

Jordan’s Yazan Al-Naimat scored the first goal in the 8th minute of the second half, and Jordan’s ace Musa Al-Tamari scored an additional goal in the 21st minute to decide the game.

Korea won the Asian Cup twice, but Jordan was so underdog that it had never reached the quarterfinals before this tournament.

Nevertheless, they defeated Korea and advanced to the finals. Jordan will face the winner of the hosts Qatar and Iran in the final on the 10th.

The BBC reported that with this defeat, the future of coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who took office a year ago, is also becoming a topic of interest. 스포츠토토
