This is the night of the 28th.

Our football team will play the second leg of the World Cup in Qatar tonight against Ghana.

It is unclear whether Min-jae Kim, the “nucleus of defense” who suffered a calf injury, will participate, but our players confidently voted for victory, determined to win.

There was a mixture of anticipation and tension in the national team's final training before the match against Ghana.



Son Heung-min led the atmosphere at the training ground by applauding and encouraging his teammates.



Hwang Hee-chan, who missed the game against Uruguay due to a thigh injury, digested team training, and Min-jae Kim, the “nucleus of the defense,” came to the training ground for the first time after injuring his calf in the last game against Uruguay, but raised concerns about not being able to rehabilitate while riding a bicycle and join team training. .



If Kim Min-jae fails to step up, backup central defender Cho Yoo-min or Kwon Kyung-won will have to step in.



Director Bento said that Hwang Hee-chan was absent, and he kept quiet about Kim Min-jae.



[Bento/Soccer team coach: Hwang Hee-chan can't play, and Kim Min-jae will decide on the day of the match.

Kim Min-jae is recovering.]



[Hwang In-beom/Soccer team midfielder: I believe that no matter who plays, we know what to prepare as a team so we can show good results and performance.]



Korea ranks 61st in the FIFA rankings .

's Ghana is the must-win opponent to advance to the round of 16.



After performing well in the first game from 2002 to the last tournament, I thoroughly analyzed Ghana and prepared customized tactics in order to shake off the jinx that I had struggled with in the second game.



[Son Heung-min/Soccer national team captain: I don't think we can afford to look down on any team and do this.

It would be great if I didn't repeat the same mistake (based on the lessons I've learned so far).]



All preparations are over, and the players are full of confidence.



However, whether or not Kim Min-jae will participate remains a big variable.
