Müller-Neuer attends Munich authorization interview, Kim Min-jae is absent without comment
Thomas Muller and Manuel Neuer dutifully participated in interviews that were officially sanctioned by the Bayern Munich club.
But Kim Min-jae did not. By leaving the Mix Zone without giving any reason for his absence, he deceived his teammates, the team, the press, the event organizers, and the fans who were waiting to hear what he had to say.
Munich won the second leg of their Coupang Play series against Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 on Wednesday at 8 p.m. at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.
Munich opened the scoring in the third minute when Serge Gnabry’s shot was saved by Guglielmo Vicario, but Babriel Vidovic slotted the ball between the goalkeeper’s legs with a low right-footed effort.
Leon Goretzka made it 2-0 in the 11th minute of the second half when he slotted the ball home with his right foot after the keeper was beaten. Tottenham’s Pedro Foro scored a right-footed mid-range wonder in the 21st minute of the second half, but that was it.
After the match, a mixed-zone interview was held with the players and the media. According to the rules of Coupang Play, three official interviews were scheduled to be conducted, and the Munich club’s request for official interviews with Kim Min-jae, Manuel Neuer, and Thomas Muller was denied.
The official interview with Jozua Kimmich was conducted abruptly, and Kimmich entered the Munich team bus without saying a word, while Muller was being 온라인카지노사이트 interviewed in a friendly manner. A panicked Coupang Play representative followed him to retrieve him, but he never returned.
According to a Coupang Play official, the Munich club requested an additional official interview with Kimmich, so Kimmich stepped in front of the microphone. If so, there were four official interviews with Munich players, including Kim Min-jae, but Kim Min-jae did not attend the interview “officially authorized” by his club without leaving any explanation.
Of course, it”s possible that an athlete could decline an interview due to poor physical condition or fatigue. Organizers and reporters are human, and there’s no reason why they shouldn’t understand if you have a valid explanation. It would be rude to hold someone up for not feeling well.
But if you don’t tell them, they won’t know why you can’t come. Even if you don’t tell them yourself, it shouldn’t be too difficult to explain the reason to the club or Coupang Play, but Kim Min-jae didn’t do that.
What could have been so urgent and selfish? He didn’t even bother to show up for the club-approved interview in Munich, which team legends Muller and Neuer also attended, and in doing so, he deceived many of his fans.
