Rant.
Just saying. There’s a lot of posts against the South Korea Mens National Team coach Hong Myung-bo, but let’s not forget the source of the problem: the KFA.
-
The SKMNT has a loyal following since what, the 60s, used as a source for inspiration and a taste of revenge as it was one thing that Korea could consistently beat Japan in.
-
They peaked in the 2002 World Cup (haters will say that the success was due to cheating against Italy, i’ll say that it was a game of the time where referee human errors / human factors were part of the game when there was no VARs and you had THE best home supporters of the decade or two!).
-
and have they honestly improved since then? Maybe a blip or two? But generally, downhill since 2002.
Downhill since 2002. And HMB was not always there since 2002. But the KFA was.
Has the South Korea footballing system changed since 2002? Any improvements? There are many players now training in Europe, but what about in South Korea – has the KFA made any noticeable improvements there?
- Japan was consistently beaten. However since the past 5-10 years, I don’t think that SKMNT can beat them at all – Japan’s football team and the JFA has absolutely leapfrogged the KFA. They don’t have standout football stars like Son, but they are an absolute unit of a team.
- ….while the KFA regressed and the SKMNT only pass to each other at the defensive line.
