Sounds interesting... is there a link (English) I could check out to stay up to date on the status?
I assume the tickets will be at Hana Bank if they are playing. |

Agreed. I feel sorry for Park, playing in Uk and doing so well, and then coming back here to play with a real bunch of twats.

Korea was awful Saturday night despite having most of its best players. Park Ji-sung is good, but I'm sure it's much different having to play with Koreans than his teammates at Manchester United. And yes, the chronic Korean problem of finishing lingers on.
Huh never should've been hired as coach, and the last game has made this crystal clear. I predict he won't last past the Olympics. |

Huh is not the coach for the olympic team. I believe it is Park Sung Hwa, the coach of Gyeongnam last year. |

Korea won 3-1 over Turkmenistan, but two of those scores were penalties that Turkmenistan could've avoided. Korea looks lackluster as ever, and it ain't looking good for coach DUH Jung-moo. |

Games like this are little for anyone to be excited about.
Korea can sure as heck beat down teams like Turkmenistan, Bosnia, and the like, but crumble under any real competition.
You can't blame the coach. Most of the players on the team are real twats.

Only Korea's thrid goal was off a penalty. Turkmenistan's goal was on a PK that was a questionable call, the ball was not playable when the Korean goalkeeper took down the "Turkey." The Koreans PK was deserved as the keeper took down the Korean player and denied him a scoring opportunity.
Overall, I thought Korea could have played better, but they rested many big names and winning on the road is always difficult. |

Really??? You can't blame a coach that says he is going to use his old players like Ahn Jung Hwan, who is terrible, to get them through to the second round. Even if they are real twats, I can only think of 3, he is the one that chose those twats.
I am waiting for a post from you that doesn't bash Korean sports just for the heck of it.
As far as the "big" games go, they tied France in the World Cup in 2006. How is it that you never refer to a game like that in all of your constructive posts?
Did you even stay up to watch the game? Try watching the games and then forming your opinion.
As far as my opinion goes, the team has plenty of talent but can't use that talent to the fullest when playing out of position. Huh Jung Moo put Park Chu Young as a striker even after showing in the 3 previous games he is terrible there. He continues to play Seol even though he is useless. The only thing I can give him credit for is not playing Ahn Jung Hwan last night.
Kim Do Hyeon is the best Korean soccer player IMHO. His first goal last night was pure class no matter who the opponent was. Plus getting a hat trick for your national team is always great. It will be interesting to see him in the EPL next year. |

I call them how I see them. When the Korean team shows more class, I will give them the credit due.
Yes, a few players on the team are legitimately good players, but most of the old veterans (and a few young ones) are real glory hogging cunts. I am glad to see we agree on one point (Ahn Jung Hwan sucking).
I lost the last shred of respect I had for them in that 1st game against Yo-ru-dan. Cho Won-Hee so clearly dove and then 2 'stars' had an argument over who should get the penalty kick.
