    Asian Cup, The Head of the Saudi Football Association

    Asian Cup, The Head of the Saudi Football Association is also Uncomfortable with Mancini’s ‘Leaving Work Early’

    The Saudi Arabian Football Association also showed signs of dissatisfaction with coach Roberto Mancini,

    known as the world’s highest-paid head coach, for leaving work early during the Korean game.

    According to the Arab daily Asharq Al-Awsat, Saudi Football Association President Yasser al-Misehal said Coach Mancini’s performance

    in the round of 16 against Korea in the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC)

    Asian Cup held at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on the 31st (Korean time).

    He pointed out that his actions were not appropriate. 먹튀검증가이드

    Saudi Arabia

    In an interview with a local broadcaster, Chairman Almisehal said,

    “It is difficult to understand why Coach Mancini left (the ground),” and added,

    “We will discuss with Coach Mancini why he did such a thing.”

    Still, he added, “I am satisfied with (Saudi Arabia’s) performance that Coach Mancini brought out.”

    Saudi Arabia, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann,

    was tied 1-1 for 120 minutes until overtime and lost 2-4 in a penalty shootout.

    forcing an unplanned overtime period,

    lost their third and fourth kickers in succession in the penalty shoot-out,

    giving their ticket to the quarterfinals to Klinsmann.

    When Saudi Arabia’s second miss occurred in the penalty shootout,

    Coach Mancini left the bench and went into the tunnel.

    Coach Roberto Mancini

    There is growing criticism that coach Mancini’s attitude is irresponsible,

    as he appears to have given up on the game before the players,

    rather than watching until the end when the team’s victory or defeat is decided.

    When asked to explain this behavior at a press conference immediately after the game,

    Coach Mancini replied, “I apologize.

    I thought the game was over,” and “I had no intention of disrespecting anyone.”

    He continued, “I want to say thank you to all the players.

    “He has improved a lot,” he said.

    Coach Mancini is known to receive the highest salary among soccer coaches around the world.

    When he took over Saudi Arabia in August last year,

    Italian daily Gazzetta dello Sport reported that his annual salary was 25 million euros (about 36.1 billion won) reported up to 30 million euros (43 billion won).

    Coach Mancini, who left European football for Saudi Arabia after being offered a large salary,

    is a self-proclaimed ‘master’.

    He has won numerous championship trophies on the professional stage,

    including leading Italy’s Inter Milan to three consecutive Serie A titles (2005-2006, 2006-2007, 2007-2008 seasons),

    the European Football Championship held in 2021 (Euro 2020) gave Italy its first championship trophy in 53 years.

    North Korea is also scheduled to play the 2024 Paris Olympics women’s soccer qualifier against Japan next month,

    it was announced on the AFC website that the first home game in the home and away format will be held at Kim Il-sung Stadium on February 24.

    Asian Cup ‘AG Duo’ Lee Kang-in and Jung Woo-young Prevented Defeat… A Poor Performance that Almost Became a ‘Disaster’

    Corner kick → header to take the lead… After being defeated, Lee Kang-in scored an own goal with a free kick.

    On the 25th, at Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah, Qatar, a somewhat ‘shocking’ draw was recorded in Korean soccer.

    In the final third match of Group E of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup,

    which is competing with the goal of winning,

    it was tied 3-3 with Malaysia, which is considered the weakest among the participating countries. 카지노

    Before this year, Malaysia had only participated in the Asian Cup finals three times,

    winning only once in 1980.

    In this tournament, they had already suffered consecutive losses in the previous two games,

    preventing them from advancing to the round of 16.

    It was an opponent who knew us better than anyone else as it was led by coach Kim Pang-gon,

    who served as the chairman of the Korea Football Association’s Strengthening Committee,

    but it was clearly disappointing for Korea that this result was achieved even after using most of the key European players,

    led by Son Heung-min (Tottenham). am.

    It was Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain), who was solidifying his presence as an ‘ace’ in this tournament, who saved Klinsmann-ho,

    who had been unable to turn his onslaught into goals after a comeback, from the brink of defeat.

    In the 38th minute of the second half, Lee Kang-in took the free kick from behind the penalty arc and aimed for the goal with a powerful left-footed shot.

    Although it was recorded as an own goal as the ball passed through the goalpost and the hand of opposing goalkeeper Hazumi Saihan,

    it was a scene where Lee Kang-in’s unique left foot shined.

    Lee Kang-in also recorded an assist with a sharp free kick when Jung Woo-young (Stuttgart) scored the first goal in the 21st minute of the first half of the day.

    Jung Woo-young, who jumped up and accurately received the corner kick with his head,

    won a gold medal with Lee Kang-in on the national team at the Hangzhou Asian Games held last fall.

    Jung Woo-young, who showed off his never-before-seen goal scoring ability at the Asian Games and became the top scorer with 8 goals,

    did not get many opportunities to play for his team or national team A,

    but after quietly preparing, he regained his decisiveness in his first starting game at the Asian Cup.

    “The players did their best on the pitch and gave everything, but in the end, they failed. 바카라사이트

    “It’s very unfortunate,” he pondered.

    In the game, which ended in a 3-3 draw, Lee Kang-in scored an own goal with a free kick in the 38th minute of the second half,

    when Korea had lost two goals in a row to Malaysia in the second half and were trailing at 1-2.

    His free kick, which he took powerfully, grazed the goalpost and the opponent’s goalkeeper’s hand and did not become Lee Kang-in’s third goal of the tournament,

    but it was a golden kick that tied the score at 2-2.

    The national team later turned the tide again with a penalty kick goal by Son Heung-min (Tottenham),

    but had to be satisfied with only 1 point as they conceded a tying goal in the 15th minute of added time in the second half.

    Lee Kang-in emphasized again, “I prepared to win, but I wasn’t able to,

    so the result is the most disappointing,” and expressed his determination,

    “I will prepare better for the next game (round of 16) so that I can get a good result.”

    He said, “From now on, winning is the only important thing,

    so I talked to my teammates about coming together as one and making sure to win.

    We are all experienced players, and we control each other well,

    so I don’t think there will be any problems with the team atmosphere.”

    On this day, Lee Kang-in also assisted Jung Woo-young (Stuttgart)’s header goal with a corner kick in the 21st minute of the first half.

    Regarding deciding between Son Heung-min and the kicker in a set-piece situation,

    Lee Kang-in explained, “There is nothing set in stone, we talk to each other and choose the kicker,” and added, “It seems like the player is taking the kick in a better position.”

    If Korea had finished in first place in Group E, it could have met Japan,

    which finished in second place in Group D, in the round of 16.

    However, it ended up in second place in the group due to a draw that day,

    thus avoiding an early confrontation.

    Regarding this, Lee Kang-in said, “The players don’t have much thought about such things,”

    “I don’t think I have anything else to say.”
