Asian Cup 1/8 finals, the Saudi team will compete head-on with the South Korean team. In the previous group match, the Korean team was unexpectedly tied by the Malaysian team, ranked 130th in the world, and the Korean team coach Klinsmann even made a weird smile. In major competitions, many teams that deliberately choose their opponents end up paying the price, such as Denmark and Sweden in the 2004 European Cup, Spain in the 2022 World Cup, etc. Nowadays, the South Korean team is suspected of deliberately avoiding an early confrontation with the Japanese team. I wonder if the Saudi team can give the "Tai Chi Tigers" a heads-up?

The Saudi team is strong and has half the home court advantage

Although the talent training model of Saudi football has always been in a self-entertainment mode, and the Saudis are definitely not superstitious about returnees, in the previous World Cup in Qatar, the Saudi football team There are no returning stars joining the cast. However, the insufficient number of returnees does not mean that the team is weak. In past matches, the Saudi team has often been able to give South Korea and Japan a heads-up. And in this Asian Cup, the Saudi team has a half-home advantage. Therefore, the Saudi team is not afraid of its opponents in spirit, and has advantages in adaptability to the venue and weather.

How to activate Son Heung-min, this is an issue that the Korean team must consider.

In past games, Son Heung-min has only shown his true qualities as a shooter during set-piece kicks and set-piece attacks. How to maximize the activation of this Premier League Golden Boot? The offensive firepower allows him to dominate the Asian arena. This is an issue that Klinsmann's coaching staff must consider. Facing the Saudi team in this game, whether Son Heung-min can play his tactical role on the offensive end is the biggest highlight of this game.

Judging from past games, the Saudi team has a tacit understanding of cooperation and is also very skilled with their feet. But the Saudi team is afraid of high-intensity pressing, and will panic even when faced with the Chinese team's pressing. If the South Korean team uses the high position in the frontcourt to press and steal the ball, and let Son Heung-min ride wildly, the "Tai Chi Tiger" will win. .
