Yesterday (28th) against Ghana, coach Bento received a red card for strongly protesting the decision that destroyed our corner kick opportunity.
In the third match against Portugal, I couldn't even sit on the bench.

Our national team was on the offensive after falling behind Ghana by one goal.
We got a corner kick chance to equalize just before the end.
However, the referee blew the final whistle and ended the game.
In an incomprehensible decision, players such as Lee Kang-in and Son Heung-min, as well as coach Bento, ran out and protested strongly, but the referee rather pulled out a red card and ordered Bento to leave.
[Bae Seong-jae: No, it was a corner kick, but it ended the game.]
[Lee Seung-woo: No, what is that?
It's a corner kick attack, how can I finish it?]
[Bae Seong-jae: I even bring out a red card to Bento.]
[Park Ji-seong: That sounds like an incomprehensible final whistle.]
Our national team coach was sent off after receiving a red card at the World Cup, coach Bento. This is the first time.
[Paulo Bento/Korea national team coach: Personally, I think it's a really unfair result and an unsatisfactory result.

As a result, coach Bento could not go to the official press conference after the game, so the head coach attended instead, and an emergency was caught as he could not command from the bench in the third match against Portugal on the 2nd.
The referee who gave Bento a red card is referee Taylor from England, and has a history of sending off Son Heung-min, who fell after competing with an opponent in the Premier League three years ago.
Referee Taylor sent off coach Bento in this World Cup, and continued a bad relationship with our football.
