The Asian Cup in Qatar ended the first semi-final match. The favorite South Korea team was eliminated 0-2, and the dark horse Jordan team made history and reached the Asian Cup final for the first time. After the game, Son Heung-min kept apologizing. On the one hand, it was because of his poor performance, and on the other hand, the two goals conceded by the Korean team were due to his own mistakes. A 2-0 game decided the first final team of this Asian Cup: dark horse Jordan!
In this campaign, Son Heung-min was indeed completely locked up. The technical statistics of the game showed that Son Heung-min had 0 shots and did not pass any threatening balls. His contribution to the team's offensive end was almost zero. However, from the perspective of the entire Asian Cup, Son Heung-min performed very well, especially when he defeated Australia 2-1 in overtime in the last knockout round. Son Heung-min made a penalty kick in the stoppage time of regular time to help the South Korean team complete the tie. He scored a wonderful free kick in overtime. If it weren't for Son Heung-min, the Korean team would not be able to advance to the semi-finals and stand in front of the Jordan team to start the semi-finals.
Conceded two goals against the Jordanian team. The Korean team's defense made an unforgivable mistake. In the 53rd minute, Park Yong-woo's pass in the backcourt was intercepted, and Yazan scored with a single shot. South Korea lost the first goal 0-1. In the 66th minute, Tamali went solo during a counterattack and toyed with the entire Korean team's defense. Especially Huang In-beom was knocked down directly. The Korean team lost another goal and eventually lost 0-2. In this way, the Korean team's Asian Cup championship drought for the past 64 years since 1960 will continue! The Korean media are very disappointed with the performance of the South Korean team, believing that without goalkeeper Zhao Hyun-woo, the South Korean team is likely to lose 0-4! As for coach Klinsmann, the Korean media said angrily: Apologize and dismiss get out of class!
Today’s South Korean team actually has outstanding personal abilities. There are many big-name stars living in Europe. Son Heung-min is in his golden age. Lee Gang-in has also established a foothold in Paris. Kim Min-jae is Bayern’s main central defender. There are also Premier League Wolves. The team's forward Huang Xican is worth 200 million euros, second only to the Japanese team in Asia. However, coach Klinsmann's coordination of the team was almost zero, and his on-the-spot command was also chaotic, which delayed this group of Korean players.
The Jordanian team, ranked 87th in the world and 13th in Asia, has become the biggest dark horse of this Asian Cup in Qatar. The Jordanian team, which qualified as third in the group, made a historic entry into the Asian Cup finals. The performance of the Jordan team in this year's Asian Cup in Qatar is very similar to that of Morocco in the World Cup in Qatar. It is worth mentioning that the current coach of the Jordan team, Almutami, is a Moroccan.
