The national team announced the start of the goal storm against Thailand with a header by Hong Hyun-seok, who is playing for Belgium.
Ahn Jae-jun’s strong will to keep the ball alive until the end and somehow create an opportunity led to an additional goal.
Eom Won-sang, who has outstanding speed, once again showed off his excellent decision-making skills.
Even central defender Lee Jae-ik hit the net with a strong shot, and the national team scored four goals in the first half alone.
[이영표/KBS 축구 해설위원 : “1차전에서 9대 0 대승을 했음에도 경기에 임하는 선수들의 일관성 있는 경기력은 지금까지는 정말 칭찬할만합니다.”]
The national team, which won 4-0 against Thailand, secured first place in the group and advanced to the round of 16 early on with overwhelming power worthy of being a championship contender.
[엄원상/아시안게임 축구 국가대표 : “1차적인 목표를 가져올 수 있어서 매우 기분 좋습니다. 아무래도 마지막 경기가 남아있어서 그 경기도 반드시 승리할 수 있도록 준비 잘해야할 것 같습니다.”]
Lee Kang-in, who joined the national team yesterday and watched the game from the stands, met the players and greeted them warmly after the game.
I shared the joy with my close friend Eom Won-sang, arm in arm.
Lee Kang-in, who started his first training a little while ago, showed his strong will to win and raised the mood of the national team.
[이강인/아시안게임 축구 국가대표 : “어느 대회를 나가도 대한민국이라는 나라를 대표하는 것이기 때문에 여느 경기처럼 항상 간절하고 꼭 이기려고 해야 되는 것 같습니다.”]
[홍현석/아시안게임 축구 국가대표 : “강인이형 왔냐고 인사했습니다. (축구 잘하면 형인가요?) 네. 맞습니다. 강인이가 너무 말도 많고 해서 살짝 정신없죠. 분위기가 엄청 좋아진 것 같아요.”]
Coach Hwang Seon-hong plans to deploy Lee Kang-in in the third group match against Bahrain to have him work together.
With the addition of Lee Kang-in, the national team is moving forward toward its dream of winning three consecutive gold medals.
