KIA Coach Lee Beom-ho Announces Generational Change

KBO’s First Appearance as a Head Coach Born in the 80s… KIA Coach Lee Beom-ho Announces Generational Change

New coach Beom-ho Lee, born in 1981, is two years older than Hyeong-woo Choi, the team’s top official.

Now, a ‘manager born in the 1980s’ has appeared in professional baseball.

On the 13th, the KIA Tigers announced that Beom-ho Lee (42), current first-team batting coach, was appointed as the new manager.

The contract period is 2 years, and the total contract amount including down payment and annual salary is 900 million won. 온라인카지노

The KIA club, which immediately withdrew its baton when former coach Kim Jong-guk was investigated by the prosecution on charges of breach of trust on the 29th of last month, handed the baton to coach Lee after intense review.

Coach Lee, who is currently attending spring camp with the players as a batting coach in Canberra, Australia, will immediately take on the role of manager.

Coach Lee, who was born on November 25, 1981, the day the first club owners’ meeting to found the Korean Professional Baseball League was held, is the first official manager of the KBO League born in the 1980s.

Previously, Lotte Giants coaches Moon Kyu-hyun, born in 1983, and Hank Conger (Korean name Choi Hyun), born in 1988, briefly served as acting head coach in the absence of former coach Larry Sutton, and Kiwoom Heroes head coach Kim Chang-hyun, born in 1985, resigned in 2020 when former coach Son Hyuk voluntarily resigned.

He led the team for the remainder of the season.

However, Lee is the first coach born in the 1980s to sign a formal coaching contract and rise to the position of head of the team.

Coach Lee was born only a year before the current KBO league’s oldest players, Seung-hwan Oh (Samsung Lions), born in 1982, Shin-soo Choo (SSG Landers), and Kang-min Kim (Hanwha Eagles).

He is two years older than Choi Hyeong-woo, born in 1983, the oldest KIA player.

If Choo Shin-soo, who was once rumored to be appointed SSG coach, had taken the reins, he could have become the ‘first KBO League coach born in the 1980s,’ but it was literally just a rumor.

Manager Lee’s strengths include his broad understanding of the club and his ability to communicate.

Coach Lee, who retired as an active player in 2019 and started anew as a KIA scout in 2020, took on the position of general coach of the KIA 2nd team in 2021.

And in 2022 and 2023, he coached players as the KIA 1st team hitting coach.

The KIA club entrusted the baton to Coach Lee, who was considered the ‘next head coach’ due to his rich experience encompassing the first and second teams and the leadership he has shown since his active years.

The club expects him to become a coach who communicates freely with the players, as befits a young coach in his early 40s who was working with young players in their early 20s in the second team just three years ago.

If you look at professional sports other than the KBO, several coaches born in the 1980s stand out.

In professional soccer, there is coach Yeom Ki-hoon, born in 1983, who served as acting coach of Suwon Samsung and took off his ‘acting role’ early this year.

In professional volleyball, coach Kwon Young-min, who leads the men’s KEPCO, was born in 1980, and Korean Air coach Tommy Tilikainen (Finland) was born in 1987, making him the youngest in the league.

In women’s professional basketball, Incheon Shinhan Bank coach Guna Dan, born in 1982, is Korean-Canadian.

Cho Geon-hwi Wins his First Win in 4 Years of Professional Billiards

Geonhwi Cho Wins his First Win in 4 Years of Professional Billiards… “I’m not Satisfied with just one time”

2-9 → 11-9 comeback drama with 9 high runs in 7 sets

Geonhwi Jo (32, SK Rent-a-Car) won his first trophy in the professional billiards PBA in four years.

Geonhwi Cho won with a set score of 4-3 after a close battle with Seonggyun Lim in the PBA finals of the 8th tour of the season, the Welcome Savings Bank Wellbang PBA-LPBA Championship, held at the KINTEX PBA Stadium in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do on the night of the 12th, and rose to the top. 토토사이트

He won for the first time in 35 competitions he participated in since becoming a professional in the 2019-2020 season, winning 100 million won in prize money and raising his season prize money ranking from 33rd to 6th.

In addition, he added 100,000 championship points and jumped from 26th to 6th in the season’s overall ranking.

The ‘Well Bang Top Ranking’ (prize prize of 4 million won), which is given to the player who recorded the highest average in one game of the tournament, was awarded to Ki-ho Park, who scored 3.750 against Semi Signer (Turkiye, Huons) in the round of 32 of the tournament.

The ‘TS Shampoo Perfect Q Award’ (10 million won in prize money), which is given to those who achieve all 15 points in Hankyu at once (11 points in the final set), went to Hyuk-min Kwon, who achieved it in the round of 16 of the competition.

Geonhwi Cho continued to fight back and forth in the final, losing 5 sets and falling to 2-3.

He won 15-7 in the 6th set and took the game to the 7th set, creating a dramatic comeback.

He was far behind at 2-9 and was on the verge of giving up his first win to Lim Seong-gyun if he gave up just 2 points, but he scored 9 high points and quickly ended the game at 11-9.

After the game, Geon-Hwi Cho expressed his thoughts, saying, “I don’t remember the high 9 points in the 7th set, but I really like it.

It’s really nice to be able to touch this championship trophy just once.”

He also reflected, “I didn’t even think about long hits (high runs).

I just focused on each and every ball.

It was effective to focus on just scoring one point without worrying about position or defense to score consecutive points.”

Finally, Geonhwi Cho expressed his determination, “It took a long time, but I will not be satisfied with just one win.

I will not be left behind, I will improve further and show a good performance, and I will play billiards without giving up until the end.”

PBA, which completed its 8th tour of the season, will begin the ‘Crown Haitai PBA-LPBA Championship‘, the last regular tour of this season, on the 20th.

Shim Jae-hak, Beom-ho Lee is the Best Choice

KIA General Manager Shim Jae-hak “Director Beom-ho Lee, Who has a Lot of Ideas, Is the Best Choice”

Shim Jae-hak, general manager of the professional baseball KIA Tigers, explained, “With less than 40 days left until the start of the regular season, I think Coach Beom-ho Lee was the best choice as a leader to calm the team atmosphere and provide new leadership.”

On the 13th, the KIA club appointed Coach Beom-ho Lee, who is currently the first-team batting coach and is leading the players in the first spring camp set up in Canberra, Australia, as the 11th coach.

The terms of the contract are 900 million won, including a contract period of 2 years, a down payment of 300 million won, and an annual salary of 300 million won. 바카라사이트

Coach Lee plans to focus on preparing for the regular season without a hitch by reorienting KIA, which was shaken by the dismissal of former coach Kim Jong-guk.

Coach Lee, who played for the Hanwha Eagles for 10 years and also played for the Softbank Hawks of the Japanese professional baseball team, is not a Tigers franchise star.

However, during the nine years he played for KIA from 2011 to 2019, he showed off his extraordinary charisma and communication skills and was evaluated as a great leader in the future.

It is not unrelated to this that KIA tested his abilities by entrusting key positions to Coach Lee, such as Futures (2nd team) coach in 2021 and 1st team batting coach from 2022.

General Manager Shim introduced the selection process, saying, “In the special situation of having to appoint a coach just before the regular season, we held several meetings to select candidates for internal and external coaches.”

It is said that KIA team officials, including Manager Shim, were unable to rest even during the Lunar New Year holiday as they did not know when the approval of the parent company, Hyundai-Kia Motors Group, would run out.

The choice of KIA club field officials was internal promotion.

They agreed to entrust the important responsibility of repairing the team to a leader with completely new leadership, rather than relying on the name of the former Tigers player.

Director Shim said, “After we decided on a major direction by promoting an internal leader to director, we did not interview any external personnel as directors.”

Coach Lee, who is training in Australia, had a video interview with Director Shim and team leader personnel on the 10th, and the KIA club recorded the video interview and delivered it to Choi Jun-young, CEO of the KIA club.

The final decision on supervision by the parent company was made on the 13th.

General Manager Shim said, “Since I took office as general manager last year, I have often talked with the coaches to establish the direction of the club.”

He added, “Coach Lee provided many ideas, and in particular, at the club strategy seminar attended by CEO Choi last month, as a hitting coach, Lee “I think the director presented good content and probably received additional points in the selection process,” he said.

Director Shim heads to Australia this afternoon to discuss management plans for the club with coach Beom-ho Lee.

The vacant first-team hitting coach position will be filled with someone recommended by Coach Lee.

NHL’s ‘Battle of Ontario’ Took Place as an Unwritten Rule

‘Puck’ for Making a Strong Shot at an Empty Goal… NHL’s ‘Battle of Ontario’ Took Place as an Unwritten Rule

Toronto Riley pushes opponent’s face with hockey stick during game

The North American Ice Hockey League (NHL) is famous for being the fastest and most aggressive of all ball games.

So much so that they even set a rule for fistfights: ‘With the mask off, with no equipment, only with bare hands.’

However, fighting with hockey sticks is strictly prohibited. 카지노사이트

In mild cases, you may only be fined, but in severe cases, you may be subject to criminal punishment.

The Associated Press reported on the 13th (Korean time) that Toronto Maple Leafs defender Morgan Riley will appear at an NHL office hearing for hitting Ottawa Senators forward Ridley Gregg.

Being summoned to the secretariat hearing for foul play during a game means that severe punishment, including a suspension of at least six games, is inevitable.

Riley held his hockey stick in both hands and shoved Gregg in the face just before the end of the game against Ottawa held at the Canadian Tire Center in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada on the 11th.

In Canada, where ice hockey is very popular, the match between Toronto and Ottawa is a rivalry nicknamed the ‘Battle of Ontario’.

The incident originated from the unwritten rule of ‘refrain from hitting hard into an empty goal.’

Toronto, which was tied 3-4 until the end of the third period, carried out the ‘Empty net goal’ strategy, subtracting the goalie and inserting one more field player.

This strategy leaves the goalpost completely empty, so if the puck is lost to an opposing player, a goal is immediately allowed.

Ottawa Gregg, who received the ball from a teammate, ran leisurely on the ice alone and then hit an empty Toronto goal with a slap shot.

A slap shot refers to the most powerful attack made by raising the hockey stick above the shoulder.

In an empty net goal situation, it is an unwritten rule to lightly tap the ball in to avoid provoking the opponent, but Gregg broke this.

Riley, who was watching right behind him, raised the hockey stick horizontally and hit Greg near the face.

Players from both teams got entangled on the ice and fought, and at that moment, the buzzer sounded to end the game, resulting in a 5-3 win for Ottawa.

Toronto players are protecting Riley, saying, ‘If Riley hadn’t done it, they would have hit him.’

Toronto vice-captain Auston Mathews said, “I think it’s definitely something that deserves a response.

Riley’s not a player who makes malicious plays by any means,” and added, “I don’t think it was necessary for (Gregg) to go down there and score like that.”

Even among Ottawa players, some say, “If you think about it differently, he might have been amused by Gregg’s actions.”

Gregg is the son of Mark Gregg, who previously played in the NHL, and is a rookie player who debuted in the league this year.

Among the players, there is a perception that Riley, who has been a pro for 11 years, scolded the ‘fearless rookie’ Gregg.

However, no matter how much he broke the unwritten rule, there are louder voices saying that hitting him with a hockey stick was wrong.

Ottawa coach Jacques Martin raised his voice, saying, “That’s not a hockey game. He

may have acted out of frustration (of losing the game), but he shouldn’t pretend it’s part of the game.”

A post posted by a hockey fan on America’s largest community website ‘Reddit’ said, “Is dunking into an empty goal in basketball a problem?

Baseball also allows bat flips.

Violence should not occur for any reason,” fans said.

There is support among them.

The First Match of the Season with Woo Sang-hyuk was Canceled

Barsim does not Participate in Slovakia Competition… The First Match of the Season with Woo Sang-hyuk was Canceled

There is a growing possibility that the first match of the season between ‘Smile Jumper’ Woo Sang-hyuk (27, Yongin City Hall) and Mutaz Essa Barsim (32, Qatar) will take place outdoors rather than indoors.

Barsim will not participate in the 30th Banska Bystrica indoor high jump competition held in Banska Bystrica, Slovakia on the morning of the 14th, Korean time.

Participation in the 2024 World Indoor Athletics Championships to be held in Glasgow, Scotland, England on March 3 is also uncertain.

The Banska Bystrica competition organizing committee announced on the 13th, “Barsim will not be able to participate in the competition due to back pain.”

“I am currently receiving treatment in Munich, Germany, due to a back injury,” Barsim told the organizers. 온라인카지노

“The medical staff advised me to rest,” he said.

“It may also be difficult to participate in the World Indoor Championships in Glasgow.

He said, “It is a pity that I cannot participate in the Banska Bystrica competition.”

Woo Sang-hyuk participated as a “male representative” in the press conference prepared by the organizers that day and said, “I will have a great game.”

The Banska Bystrica competition, which celebrated its 30th anniversary this year, put a lot of effort into recruiting Barsim and promoted it several times, saying, “Barsim will participate in the competition.”

The rivalry between Woo Sang-hyuk and Mutaz Essa Barsim could become a box office draw worthy of attention in the track and field world.

However, due to Barsim’s absence, the match between the two was canceled.

Woo Sang-hyuk will play his second game of the season in good health.

He took second place with 2m33 at the indoor high jump competition in Justopece, Czech Republic on the 11th.

Shelby McEwan (27, USA), who took first place, also had a record of 2m33, and her success at 2m33 was the same in the third period.

However, the rankings were divided as Woo Sang-hyuk succeeded in hitting 2m31 in the second period and McEwan succeeded in the first period.

Sanghyuk Woo started off tied for first in the world in the 2024 indoor season record rankings.

As of the 13th, only three people, Sanghyuk Woo, McEwan, and Daniil Lysenko (Russia), exceeded 2m33.

At 3 a.m. on the 14th Korean time, Sanghyuk Woo makes his second jump of the season at Vans Cavistrycha.

Although Barsim will not participate, Andriy Protsenko (Ukraine), who holds a personal best of 2m 40m, and Marco Pasinotti (Italy), who has a personal best of 2m 35m, will compete with Woo Sang-hyuk.

Woo Sang-hyuk’s personal best records are 2m 36 indoors and 2m 35 outdoors.

He won the 2022 Banskavistrica competition over 2m35.

Sanghyuk Woo will compete once more in Nehvizdi, Czech Republic on the 21st, and then attempt to win his second consecutive title at the Glasgow World Indoor Championships on March 3rd.

The Reason Why Lee Jeong-hu’s Ransom Price Soared

The Reason Why Lee Jeong-hu’s Ransom Price Soared… Data System·WBC·Kelly’s Success

ESPN: “Asian players’ salaries are sky high… something unthinkable in the past”

Cited as three reasons for the skyrocketing salaries, “MLB teams collect various data easily”

A major feature of this winter’s Major League Baseball (MLB) Stove League is that the value of players from the KBO League of Korean Professional Baseball and the NPB of Japanese Professional Baseball has soared. 카지노사이트

Yoshinobu Yamamoto (25), a right-handed pitcher who played for Japan’s Orix Buffaloes, signed a 12-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers worth $325 million (about 432.9 billion won), setting a new record for the largest contract in history through the posting system (private competitive bidding). , broke the record for the largest guaranteed amount for a pitcher in MLB history.

Lee Jeong-hoo (25), who was a key player for Kiwoom Heroes, also set a new record for the highest posting amount ever for a Korean.

Lee Jung-hoo signed a six-year contract with the San Francisco Giants worth $113 million (KRW 150.5 billion), exceeding Ryu Hyun-jin’s contract size (6 years, $36 million in 2013).

In the past, it was unimaginable to see Asian players who had never played in MLB enter the U.S. for more than 100 billion won.

On the 13th (Korean time), ESPN explained the changed treatment of Asian players in an article titled ‘Why MLB signs large contracts with international free agents (FA)’ and said, “In 2001, Ichiro Suzuki signed a three-year, 1,000 contract contract with the Seattle Mariners.

“The contract was for $4 million.

Even considering inflation, the contract is only worth $24 million,” he said.

The media said, “Ichiro is a player who is confirmed to be inducted into the Hall of Fame,” and “If he entered MLB this year, he would have been able to sign a contract worth at least $150 million.”

ESPN analyzed three reasons why the prices of Asian professional baseball players have skyrocketed.

First, environmental reasons were cited.

MLB teams can now easily find information on players playing in Korean and Japanese professional baseball.

ESPN explained, “The player’s skill evaluation system has grown exponentially, creating certainty for recruiting players.”

Rod Blunck, senior advisor at Octagon, a large agency in North America, said, “I can feel that the distance between the international markets has become very close,” and “10 years ago, it was difficult to see athletes from all over the world play, but now (through the Internet, etc.) “You can see everything,” he said.

In particular, it has become possible to easily obtain data that was difficult to imagine in the past, such as pitcher’s pitch rotation speed, release point, and hitter’s exit speed.

Professional teams in Korea and Japan widely use various baseball data collection equipment, such as Trackman and Hawkeye, to provide player data.

Yamamoto’s agent, Joel Wolff, explained, “Now every MLB team can be analyzed as if (Asian players) played in the United States just yesterday.”

The increase in international competitions such as the World Baseball Classic (WBC) and Premier 12 where players can directly see their skills has also played a role in causing the prices of Korean and Japanese players to soar.

ESPN explained, “MLB teams can be outlined through data and gain confidence through international competitions,” and “Lee Jung-hoo surprised scouts and executives by recording 6 hits in 14 at-bats and an on-base percentage of 0.500 in the 2023 WBC.”

The performance of foreign players who returned to MLB after playing in Korean and Japanese professional baseball also played a significant role in increasing the value of Korean and Japanese professional league players.

Merrill Kelly (Arizona Diamondbacks), who played for the SK Wyverns (now SSG Landers), emerged as the team’s ace after returning to the big leagues, and Myles Michaelus (St. Louis Cardinals) also played in Japanese professional baseball before returning to MLB and showing great performance.

As players who played in Asia successfully settled in MLB, the perception of MLB clubs toward the Asian league began to change.

MLB clubs now believe that the success of Asian players may be more a matter of adaptation rather than skill.

ESPN said, “Asian players are working hard to help them adapt well to diet, travel distance, and living abroad,” and added, “Clubs also provide various conveniences to help players feel comfortable.”

Cho Kyu-seong, Who Saved the Klinsmann From the Edge of a Cliff

Asian Cup, Overcoming Criticism and Eventually Becoming a Solution… Cho Kyu-seong, Who Saved the Klinsmann From the Edge of a Cliff

Although they were criticized for their poor performance throughout the group stage, they were in full swing at Education City Stadium after scoring a dramatic equalizer against Saudi Arabia in the round of 16.

Penalty shootout was also successful.

Cho Gyu-seong (Midtjylland), who suffered criticism for his poor performance in the group stage of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup, saved Klinsmann, who was pushed to the brink. 카지노

The Korean national soccer team, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann, won 4-2 in a penalty shoot-out after finishing the first and second halves and overtime 1-1 in the round of 16 against Saudi Arabia held at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on the 31st (Korean time).

We won and advanced to the quarterfinals.

Until just before the end of the second half, Klinsmann’s defeat was clear.

The Korean national soccer team, who conceded a goal to Abdullah Radif in the first minute of the second half, was unable to score a goal to make up for it even when extra time began in the second half, and was on the verge of elimination.

After more than 8 minutes of the 10 minutes of additional time had passed, Cho Gyu-seong took on the role of the Klinsmann’s problem solver.

A cross from the right side hit the head of Seol Young-woo (Ulsan), who entered the penalty box from the other side, and headed toward the goal.

Cho Kyu-seong, who overcame the defense and competition, jumped up and attempted a heading shot again, and the ball passed over Cho Kyu-seong’s head and fell into the empty goal.

It was the ‘one shot’ that saved Korean soccer at a moment of desperation.

Thanks to Cho Gyu-sung’s golden score, Jurgen Klinsmann was once again given the opportunity to decide the winner from square one, and eventually defeated Saudi Arabia in a penalty shootout and advanced to the quarterfinals.

On this day, Cho Gyu-seong was replaced by Lee Jae-seong (Mainz) in the 19th minute of the second half.

Cho Gyu-seong, who won the competition for the front line of Lake Klinsmann, appeared as a starting striker in all three group league games, but received strong criticism from fans due to his poor performance.

In all three games, the team continued to take the lead and go on the offensive, but as Cho Gyu-sung repeatedly missed easy scoring opportunities, Klinsmann suffered unexpected struggles against teams that were considered one level below him.

Klinsmann, who drew 2-2 in the second game of Group E with Jordan, also drew 3-3 in the third game with Malaysia, and fans’ doubts grew as to whether they would be able to achieve their first win in 64 years.

Coincidentally, during this tournament, a portion of a TV entertainment program that Jo Kyu-sung recorded in the past was aired, and criticisms such as ‘Focus on soccer, not entertainment’ emerged, harassing Jo Kyu-sung.

Gyu-seong Cho proved his true worth with his ‘skill’ in the fourth game of this tournament.

He repaid the faith of Manager Klinsmann, who hired him, by hitting the net with his trademark high-RBI header.

This is Cho Gyu-seong’s 9th goal in his 35th A match (match between national teams).

Cho Gyu-seong has a deep connection with Education City Stadium, where Korea and Saudi Arabia competed to advance to the quarterfinals of the tournament.

The reason why Cho Gyu-sung rose to stardom was because of his performance in this stadium.

The second match against Ghana in the 2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup group stage was held here.

The national team, which challenged the World Cup under former coach Paulo Bento, lost the game 2-3, but Cho Kyu-sung scored two goals with a header, giving comfort to Korean soccer fans.

At the time, Cho Kyu-sung scored two goals, beating Uruguay, who had the same record of one win, one draw, and one loss, and Bentoho was able to advance to the round of 16 by taking second place in the group after Portugal.

In fact, it was only when Cho Kyu-seong arrived at the stadium that he found out that the round of 16 would be played at Education City Stadium, the ‘promised land’.

In an interview with reporters after the game, Cho Kyu-seong said, “I came to the stadium, and I thought it was a stadium I had seen many times, so (Hwang) Hee-chan (Wolverhampton) asked my brother.

He said it was the stadium for the match against Ghana.

As soon as I heard it, I thought ‘that’s it’ and laughed to myself.”

He told the story afterwards.

Cho Gyu-seong, who was excluded from the starting lineup that day and watched the game from the bench, said, “I prepared thinking I would score in any situation,” and at the moment of scoring, “I felt very disappointed (that I had not scored) until now.

I finally realized that a goal had been scored.” “I heard it,” he said.

He strengthened his motivation against Australia, the quarterfinal opponent, saying, “I heard (the players) are extremely tall, so I will try my best to clash with them.”

Cho Kyu-seong, who scored three field goals at Education City Stadium alone, was actually able to score his fourth field goal on the day as well.

In a counterattack in the 3rd minute of the second half of extra time, the moment goalkeeper Ahmad Alcázar left the goal, Gyu-seong Cho had a chance to shoot, but he made a poor decision to give it to the side and the goal was cancelled. 메이저사이트 백링크

Putting his regrets behind him, Cho Gyu-seong took the third kicker in the penalty shootout and calmly hit the net, contributing to victory even at the last minute.

In an interview with a broadcaster after the game, Cho Gyu-seong said, “I had more opportunities, but I think I feel more disappointed because I couldn’t use them all.”

He said, “Earlier, when (Lee) Kang-in sent a cross, I said, ‘This is enough,’ but unfortunately, it hit the goalpost, and I thought, ‘There will be another one next time.'”

He added, “The moment (Seol) Young-woo gave it to me, I said, ‘This is a goal.’

“I think I thought so,” he added.

4-2 victory with the fourth kicker in the penalty shootout… “The national team has become stronger.”

“We are happy and happy to win today, but our goal is to win.” 스포츠토토

Bull’ Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), who did not lose his composure in the nail-biting penalty shootout moment and achieved Klinsmann’s victory with an accurate shot, was not excited and only thought of ‘moving forward toward the victory’.

Hwang Hee-chan In the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup round of 16 penalty shootout against Saudi Arabia held at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on the 31st (Korean time), he was the team’s fourth kicker and succeeded in scoring, leading Korea to a 4-2 victory.

The Korean national soccer team, led by coach Jürgen Klinsmann, drew 1-1 against Saudi Arabia on this day after a 120-minute battle that went into overtime, and then won 4-2 in a penalty shootout to secure a ticket to the quarterfinals.

Hwang Hee-chan was Klinsmann’s ‘sore finger’ as he attempted to win the Asian Cup for the first time in 64 years.

Hwang Hee-chan, who scored 10 goals in the English professional soccer Premier League (EPL) this season and ranked 6th in the scoring rankings, was highly anticipated as a key offensive resource for Klinsmann.

However, prior to the opening of the tournament, he complained of a problem with his hip muscles and missed the first and second group games in succession, and the national team also failed to show a hot performance, which made Hwang Hee-chan anxious.

Hwang Hee-chan, who worked hard on rehabilitation, appeared for the first time in this tournament as a substitute in the 17th minute of the second half of the third group match against Malaysia, but was unable to smile brightly as the national team ended in an embarrassing 3-3 draw.

Hwang Hee-chan stayed on the bench in the round of 16 match against Saudi Arabia on this day, but stepped on the field in place of Jung Woo-young (Stuttgart) in the 9th minute of the second half when the team was down 0-1.

Hwang Hee-chan, who played on the left wing, made the Saudi defense difficult with his characteristic aggressive breakthrough.

In the second half of extra time, he dug into the left side of the penalty area and attempted a cutback, drawing out a threatening left-footed shot from Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain).

It was unfortunate that Lee Kang-in’s shot was blocked by the goalkeeper and did not result in a goal.

Korea went into a penalty shootout after the overtime battle ended 1-1, with Son Heung-min (Tottenham), Kim Young-kwon (Ulsan), and Cho Gyu-seong (Midtjylland) scoring goals in succession, and goalkeeper Cho Hyun-woo (Ulsan) making two saves to win the 3rd.

He was ahead by -2.

At the moment when one more goal was needed, Hwang Hee-chan stepped forward as the fourth kicker, and after a long battle of nerves with the goalkeeper, he succeeded in scoring, ending the 4-2 penalty shootout win.

Hwang Hee-chan, who met with reporters in the common reporting area after the game, smiled brightly and said, “As a member of the national team and a professional player, I am very proud and happy to win the tournament and the international match.”

Hwang Hee-chan continued, “First of all, I’m very happy, but our goal is to win, so I think we’re one step closer.

As we have a bigger goal, we need to prepare well for the remaining games.

It’s nice to see everyone working hard to score a goal like today.”

“This is the true character of the team.

I would like to praise the entire team, including the starters and substitutes,” he emphasized.

Regarding the fact that the penalty shootout took a long time, he explained, “It was a very important moment.

As all the Korean fans were watching, I went into the penalty shootout more carefully,” and added, “I practiced enough, but I tried to kick with more responsibility.”

Regarding the introduction of the three-back for the first time since the appointment of coach Klinsmann on this day, he said, “I started training immediately after the group stage.

I have never used it since the coach took office, but I was well aware of the tactic as the players were at a high level.”

“Even during the break, the players continued to prepare by discussing tactics with each other,” he said.

Hwang Hee-chan emphasized, “Actually, the draw against Malaysia was a big turning point for the national team. After that game, the team atmosphere got better.

Although there were not many goals today, we created a lot of good scenes.

I want to praise that part.” did.

He raised his voice, saying, “All players must continue to work hard to move toward higher goals. 메이저사이트 백링크

Jurgen Klinsmann The Korean national soccer team, led by the coach, won 4-2 in a penalty shootout after finishing the first and second halves and overtime 1-1 in the round of 16 against Saudi Arabia held at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on the 31st (Korean time).

They advanced to the quarterfinals.

In an interview with reporters after the game, Hwang In-beom pointedly mentioned Cho Kyu-seong and said, “If I were a striker like Kyu-seong, I would really feel a lot of pressure.”

He added, “Nevertheless, I am really proud and cool that he played a role in such an important moment today,” and added, “I think many fans also felt the need for Kyuseong.”

Striker Cho Gyu-seong showed off his ‘solver instinct’ well in this game.

After conceding a goal to Abdullah Radif in the first minute of the second half, Klinsmann was on the verge of elimination as there were no points to make up for it until just before the end of the second half.

After more than 8 minutes of the 10-minute extra time had passed, Cho Gyu-seong returned Seol Young-woo’s (Ulsan) headed pass with a headed shot, opening Saudi Arabia’s goal and sending the game into overtime.

Cho Gyu-seong, who took on the third kicker in the penalty shootout, once again hit the net with a calm shot, contributing to the victory at the last minute.

Hwang In-beom said, “I think today’s game will help the team become stronger.

“I’m so happy,” he said, emphasizing that “there were a lot of disappointing aspects for our team, but we should be praised for not giving up until the end.”

On this day, Coach Klinsmann brought out the three-back, which he did not use often.

In relation to this, Hwang In-beom said, “Sometimes the national team “When I was called up, I trained so that I could change to a three-back during the game,” he said.

“Ahead of this game, I initially prepared with a three-back.”

“Except for conceding goals, I think we did a good job of blocking the opponent’s threatening attacks until overtime,” he said.

“After the Malaysia game, we did recovery training, and from the next training, we continued to practice three-backs.”

“That wasn’t even the first time I trained,” he repeatedly emphasized.

Now, Klinsmann’s next opponent is Australia.

The quarterfinals between Korea and Australia will kick off at 0:30 a.m. on February 3.

After two days of rest, it will be game day.

Hwang In-beom said, “Now I have to endure with my mental strength.

“I hope we can continue the solidity we gained today (in the quarterfinals),” he said.

Klinsmann was the Only One Who Laughed and Almost Cried

Asian Cup Klinsmann was the Only One Who Laughed and Almost Cried… The Winning Journey Continues After 64 Years

Coach Klinsmann wins by decision in a battle of wits with Mancini, the world’s highest paid coach Mancini, who left work early, said, “I fought well against one of the best teams in the world.”

Korean soccer continues its journey to win the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup for the first time in 64 years by surpassing Saudi Arabia under coach Roberto Mancini, a ‘master’ and the world’s highest-paid coach.

The Korean soccer team, led by coach Jürgen Klinsmann, won on the 31st ( (Korean time) in the round of 16 against Saudi Arabia held at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar, after being tied 1-1 in the first half and overtime, they won 4-2 in a penalty shootout. 카지노사이트

As a result, Klinsmann’s challenge for his first win since the 1960 competition continues beyond the quarterfinals.

The match between Korea and Saudi Arabia on this day attracted the attention of soccer fans around the world as a match between the ‘big name head coaches’ of Asian soccer.

Coach Mancini, who faced Korean soccer as an ‘enemy general,’ is known to receive the highest salary among soccer coaches around the world.

When he took command of Saudi Arabia in August last year, Italian daily Gazzetta dello Sport reported that his annual salary ranges from 25 million euros (about 36.1 billion won) to a maximum of 30 million euros (about 43 billion won).

Coach Mancini, who left European soccer after being offered a large salary, is a self-proclaimed ‘master’.

He has won numerous trophies in his professional career, including leading England’s Manchester City to their first Premier League (EPL) title.

He led Italy’s Inter Milan to three consecutive Serie A titles (2005-2006, 2006-2007, and 2007-2008 seasons), and gave Italy its first trophy in 53 years at the European Football Championships (Euro 2020) held in 2021.

Even such a great player was unable to achieve the task of leading Saudi Arabia (56th place), which was far behind in the FIFA rankings, to surpass Korea (23rd place) by just one inch.

Saudi football, which Coach Mancini implemented with a high-quality defensive strategy that uses three backs and four backs, pushed Korea, which had a different ranking, to the brink.

The Saudi defense, which only conceded one goal through a penalty kick in the group stage, also made Klinsmann, which had a brilliant attacking team led by European players, struggle in the round of 16 as well.

However, Klinsmann-ho, who made a comeback with Cho Gyu-seong (Midtjylland)’s dramatic equalizer just before the end of regular time, became the winner in the penalty shoot-out thanks to the performance of goalkeeper Cho Hyun-woo (Ulsan).

Coach Mancini seemed to sense defeat when Cho Hyun-woo blocked shots by Saudi Arabia’s third and fourth kickers in succession, and left the field before the result of the game was confirmed.

According to Qatari media Alkas, among the head coaches from each country participating in this tournament, Coach Klinsmann has the second highest annual salary after Coach Mancini.

Coach Klinsmann’s annual salary is estimated to be about 2.8 billion won.

It appears to be less than 1/12th of Coach Mancini’s level.

For both coaches, their soccer associations did not disclose contract terms, including salary.

Both coaches, who were born in 1964 and are the same age, were strikers during their active years.

He even competed with them on the Serie A stage.

When Coach Klinsmann joined Inter Milan for his first overseas expansion in 1989, he competed with Coach Mancini, who was at Sampdoria, for three seasons.

During this period, Coach Klinsmann scored 34 goals in the league and Mancini scored 29 goals.

Looking at the player’s entire career, Coach Klinsmann, who won the 1990 World Cup in Italy and Euro 1996, has an advantage over Coach Mancini, who has not won a major trophy.

Although Coach Mancini was pushed aside by the power of Coach Klinsmann, who was one of the leading stars in the world of soccer, the exact opposite situation occurred for his coach.

Unlike Coach Mancini, who boasts a variety of championships, Coach Klinsmann’s only record of winning a major tournament was at the top of the 2013 North and Central America Gold Cup while leading the U.S. national team.

His professional team coaching experience is even more shabby.

He suddenly resigned 77 days after taking charge of Hertha Berlin (Germany) in 2019, drawing criticism from local fans.

Just before the opening of the Asian Cup, American sports media ESPN said, ‘Korea with Son Heung-min.

There continues to be a mixture of suspicion towards director Klinsmann both at home and abroad, to the point where an article titled ‘Is Klinsmann the right director?’

Coincidentally, Saudi Arabia, led by Coach Mancini, was Coach Klinsmann’s ‘first win opponent’.

Korea, which had been on a 5-game winless streak (3 draws, 2 losses) since coach Klinsmann took office at the end of February last year, finally took a breather with a 1-0 win over Saudi Arabia on September 13.

Mancini Saudi Arabia’, eager for revenge, packed up their bags after losing once again in a match held on the single-wood bridge heading to the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup 140 days later.

Coach Mancini, who gave a broadcast interview with beIN Sports with a bitter expression after the game, said, “This is soccer,” and added, “I am satisfied with the performance our players showed. 토토사이트 백링크
