It is a tournament to determine which team will qualify for next year’s AFC U23 Asian Cup, the final Asian qualifier for the Paris Olympics. Korea aimed to win all three matches, but failed to secure victory from the first match.
Hwang Seon-Hong-Ho placed striker Heo Yul in the front line of Gwangju FC, which is making a sensation in the K-League 1 of professional football. Um Ji-seong (Gwangju), Kang Hyeon-muk (Gimcheon), Oh Jae-hyeok (Jeonbuk), and Jeon Byeong-gwan (Daejeon) were set up in the second line, and Lee Jin-yong (Daegu) as a defensive midfielder.

On the afternoon of the 6th, the 2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Under 23 (U-23) Asian Cup Qualifier Group B 1st match between Korea and Qatar held at the Changwon Soccer Center. The Korean team, which lost 0-2, greets the fans. 2023.9.6 Changwon Yonhap News South Korea continued the offensive to score a comeback goal, but had to end the game without adding a single goal.
As Qatar has qualified for the finals as the host country of the U23 Asian Cup, the result of this match does not affect the group stage rankings. It’s like a friendly match.
However, Hwang Seon-Hong-Ho, who wanted to prove the preparation process, left a disappointment as he showed poor performance.
Moreover, Qatar coach Illidiu Balur has been in charge of the team for less than a month.
Coach Hwang Seon-hong said after the game, “In the first half of the build-up situation, a backward pass came out, and the fullback was static, so I tried to correct the position. When there was only one holding midfielder, it was difficult to build up, so I changed it to two and had the fullback participate in the attack.”
Korea faces Kyrgyzstan on the 9th and Myanmar on the 12th.
