It was the best March A match for Feyenoord.
The South Korean national soccer team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, had a 1-1 draw with Jordan in the eighth Group B match of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA North-China World Cup held at Suwon World Cup Stadium at 8 p.m. on Saturday. South Korea had three consecutive draws, but maintained its lead with four wins and four draws (16 points).
South Korea, which had a 1-1 draw in the match against Oman in the first leg, started well. In the fifth minute of the first half, Lee Jae-sung, who was rushing Son Heung-min's sharp cross to the gate, finished with a left-footed shot to take a 1-0 lead. Until the beginning of the first half, South Korea targeted Jordan's "five-back defense" with Son Heung-min, Lee Jae-sung, Hwang Hee-chan, Lee Dong-kyung and Hwang In-beom at the forefront.
However, it collapsed due to an unexpected loss. In the 30th minute of the first half, Park Yong-woo lost possession in the center, and Jordan launched a counterattack. Moussa al-Tamari attempted a left footed shot from the right side of the box, but Cho Hyun-woo blocked it. Mahmoud al-Mardi connected the ball with a right footed shot to shake the net. Since then, South Korea has been frustrated with Jordan's "iron wall defense." Coach Hong Myung-bo replaced Yang Min-hyuk, Yang Hyun-joon and Oh Hyun-kyu in the second half, but there was no reversal.
In the end, South Korea fell into a "three-game draw" with a 1-1 draw until Game 8 following Game 7. As it sought to advance to the finals early, it was a two-game series that was regrettable in terms of both results and performance. Fortunately, Iraq failed to accumulate points by losing 1-2 to Palestine, but South Korea should secure its advance to the finals with a stable victory in the 9th and 10th games against Iraq and Kuwait in June.
Hwang, who had been under controversy for some time due to his injury, started the game on the day and played 80 minutes. Hwang was paired with Park Yong-woo, who played a role of distributing ball stalks across the second and third lines. He energized himself through long passes to both sides, which was not seen in the match against Oman, and displayed gritty defense. Hwang proved himself that Korea cannot afford to have Hwang. 카지노사이트
For Feyenoord, the A-match ended in March with great satisfaction. "Hwang In-beom will make a healthy return after impressive performances for the Korean national team," Feyenoord Pings said on Sunday. "The cooperation between Feyenoord medical staff and the Korean national team was very successful. The club requested consideration for Hwang's physical condition, who had just recovered from his injury, and eventually, Hwang played a total of 79 minutes (80 minutes) during this A-match," the team reported.
Coach Hong Myung-bo talked about the aftermath of Hwang In-beom's injury at a pre-press conference ahead of Game 7 against Oman, saying, "We will see his physical condition." In the end, he decided to exclude himself from the list at the match against Oman, which seems to have been exchanged with Feyenoord. For Feyenoord, it was an A match in March that minimized the risk of Hwang In-beom's recurrence of injury and checked his good performance.
