<Anchor> The



second game of our national team is just around the corner.

Tomorrow (28th) night, we will connect with Doha, Qatar, expecting a victory against Ghana.



Reporter Kim Young-seong, did the national team announce their determination against Ghana after training a while ago?

Yes, the national team had their last training before the game against Ghana, but I am worried that Min-jae Kim, who is suffering from a calf injury, could not join the team training.

While Hee-chan Hwang's absence was decided, coach Bento also kept quiet about whether Min-jae Kim would participate.

Still, our players threw their ballots confidently, promising victory.

Expectations and tensions crossed 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 Hee-chan Hwang would be absent, and he did not say much about Min-jae Kim.



[Bento/Soccer team coach: Hwang Hee-chan will not be able to play tomorrow, and Kim Min-jae will decide tomorrow.

Kim Min-jae is recovering today.]



[Hwang In-beom/National soccer team midfielder: I believe that no matter who is playing, he knows what to prepare as a team, so he can show good results and performance.]



Korea's FIFA ranking Ghana, ranked 61st, is chosen as the undisputed 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 break the jinx that I had struggled with in the second game.



[Son Heung-min/Soccer 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.
