(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Bae Jin-nam = Bentuho will have his last player check two months before the start of the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
The Korean national football team, led by coach Paulo Bento, will gather at Paju NFC (Soccer Team Training Center) on the followingnoon of the 19th to play two friendly matches.
In the Qatar World Cup, Korea, which belongs to Uruguay, Ghana, Portugal and Group H, will first face Costa Rica at the Goyang Sports Complex at 8 pm on the 23rd, and then face off once morest Cameroon at the Seoul World Cup Stadium at 8 pm on the 27th.
After confirming the final roster, they will hold an evaluation match that will be held in November and leave for Qatar for the decisive battle.
These two evaluation matches are the last player test stage to be held by mobilizing all overseas players before finalizing the 26 players in the World Cup finals.
Coach Bento announced the 26-man roster on the 13th for this evaluation match.
The key members of the Bentuho, including the three European strikers Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur), Hwang Ui-jo (Olympiacos), and Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), were called once more without change.
Min-jae Kim (Napoli), the ‘monster defender’, who was absent from four matches in the A match in June due to an injury, will return to the national team for the first time in six months since the Qatar World Cup Asian final qualifiers in March.
The first player to be selected for the national team is Kangwon FC’s Yang Hyun-joon, who is considered the best hit product in K-League 1 this season.

For the Bentuho, it is nice to see Son Heung-min, the leading goalkeeper, break the long goal silence and join the team.
Heung-Min Son scored three goals in the 2022-2023 English Premier League round 8 home match once morest Leicester City at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the morning of the 18th (Korean time), leading Tottenham to a 6-2 victory.
Heung-Min Son, who was joint top scorer in the Premier League with 23 goals last season, started in eight official matches, including six in the Premier League this season, but was not able to taste the goal.
However, in the match that started on the bench for the first time this season, he was replaced in the 14th minute of the second half, and he scored his first goal and a hat-trick, wiping out his troubles in one shot.
Earlier, when asked regarding the silence of Son Heung-min’s goal at a press conference announcing the call-up list, Bento said, “No worries. Personally, I have no intention of talking with Son on this topic.” I don’t,” he said, showing his unchanging trust.
(Seoul = Yonhap News) Kang-in Lee (Mallorca) will return to the Bentu boat two months before the start of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. On the morning of the 13th, coach Paulo Bento of the Korean national football team announced the list of players for the September A match once morest Costa Rica and Cameroon at the Jongno-gu Football Center in Seoul.

One player to pay particular attention to during this call-up period is Lee Kang-in (Mallorca).
Lee Kang-in was selected once more for the A team following a year and six months since the evaluation match once morest Japan (0-3 loss) in March of last year.
Kang-in Lee, who plays in the Spanish La Liga, made his debut for the A team in a friendly match once morest Georgia in September 2019 and has been on the list steadily until the match once morest Japan.
However, his shortcomings such as speed, defense, and physical strength were emphasized rather than his strengths such as opportunity creation, depressurization, and ball keeping ability, so he moved away from Bento’s idea.
Although Lee Kang-in was suspended in the La Liga match once morest Almeria on the 17th (1-0 win in Mallorca), Lee Kang-in showed a radically different appearance this season, including scoring attack points (one goal and three assists) in four consecutive games. Then, in the end, with the opening of the World Cup in front of me, I took the ‘last chance’.

Regarding the selection of Lee Kang-in, coach Bento responded in principle, saying, “It is the same reason that I selected another player.” .
Still, he said, “The team is constantly observing how to use it, but the national team is thinking regarding how to use it,” he said, drawing attention to how to test Lee Kang-in during this call.
Bento said, “This call is likely to be the last call with all players (European players, etc.),” he said.
Son Heung-min and Lee Kang-in will join Paju NFC on the evening of the 19th.
Kim Min-jae, Hwang Ui-jo, Hwang In-beom (Olympiacos), and Jung Woo-young (Freiburg) will play their teams on the 19th and join the Bentu on the 20th.
Goalkeeper Jo Hyeon-woo (Ulsan), who was initially in the top 26, was excluded from this call because he needed rest and treatment due to a left knee injury, and Kim Dong-jun (Jeju) was replaced.
