Those pics were obviously taken after Korea took the lead and at the end of the game. It's easy to be friendly when you're winning. I think the pics reveal more about the sportsmanship of the Togo team.

Another thing I would like to raise regarding a future improvement in Korean Soccer.

Where are the Junior soccer competitions?
Where are the quality and quantity of soccer grounds where kids can play soccer?.
Where are the coaching clinics for kids in Korea?
Where are clinics to train coaches and referees in Korea?


This is the key to improving the level of players for years to come.
I for one would be willing to get involved in coaching the kids as I have some youth coaching qualifications and love seeing them progress.

JLarter, the first thing to teach them - NEVER STOP PLAYING UNTIL YOU HEAR THE WHISTLE!!!

Why the hell doesn't Korea have more grass fields??? 11th or 12th biggest economy in the world and the majority are playing soccer on dirt. C'mon Hyundai, Samsung, etc. shell out some of that dough to improve the soccer fields in Korea.

Incedentally, as it was the first thing I was taught, it is the first thing I always tell kids.
I don't know why they don't have more spaces. I suppose, its a hilly country that's becoming more and more developed. No excuse really, should speak to the President!

The whole nation's probably been blocked because of the "netizens".

I am not sure. I guess I will try it the computers at school tomorrow. Worked fine until right after the Korean-Swiss game. Maybe it is just coincedence.

Some fans might have been stupid, and that TV show where they made fun of Africans and equating them with monkeys was idiotic, but where the Korean team is concerned, there are no hard feelings toward the Togolese.


Whew. I guess that balances it all out, eh?

My only "problem" is that I would like to watch something else on TV. That's one less game that I have to watch over and over for the next four years. Thank you football gods.


I think that there are plenty of other TV stations to watch. If you don't like hearing about Korean events then why the f$$$ would you stay here for four more years.


Are you forced to watch only football repeats on your TV? Perhaps you've lost the remote control and your TV is jammed on the football repeat channel? When you sit down on your sofa, do you have superglue on your a$$, making it impossible for you to stand up?

Not to mention all of the sporting events and movies you can get online. You don't have to watch Korean soccer games all day.
