[인터풋볼] Reporter Shin In-seop = “Korea has players like Heung-Min Son, and I think it’s a good team because it’s a team that advanced to the World Cup.”
The Korean national football team, led by coach Paulo Bento, will play the third evaluation match of the June A match once morest Paraguay at the Suwon World Cup Stadium on the 10th at 8 pm.
In the last two matches, Korea lost 1-5 to Brazil and defeated Chile 2-0. Paraguay, the last country in a three-game match in South America, will play a friendly match once morest Egypt on the 14th.
Paraguay coach Guillermo Barros Skelloto, who appeared at the press conference ahead of the game, said regarding his impressions of watching Bentojo’s match once morest Brazil and Chile, “I thought Korea was a good team. , I think it’s a good team because it’s a team that advanced to the World Cup. Apart from Korea, we also want to make a good team. I think tomorrow’s game will be a good opportunity.”
Paraguay played a friendly match once morest Japan on the 2nd. The result was a 1-4 loss. Regarding the result of the Japan match, manager Skelloto said, “The match once morest Japan is over. It was not good to play right following the away trip. The Korean match had time to train, and in the meantime, we prepared to create another team, so I think there will be different results. . Players who were not in Japan were added, and I believe there will be good results in tomorrow’s match.”
Gustavo Gomez was also present at the pre-press conference. Gomez is one of the key players in Paraguay’s defense as he played for AC Milan, a prestigious Italian club in the past. Gomez also argued that the Korean War would be different from the Japanese War. He said, “As the coach has repeatedly said during training, I think the Korean War will be different from the Japanese game. Since the climate and jet lag adjustments have been resolved, tomorrow’s game will be different.”
Gomez visited Korea in 2014. At that time, Korea played a match in Cheonan and won 2-0. When asked if Korea has changed since then, Gomez said, “I think Korea is a good team to evaluate. I always thought that. The thing that pays attention the most is that they have fast players. That part is that as a team. I think it’s a big advantage. I hope I can have a good experience through this evaluation game.”
Finally, coach Skelloto said, “As I said before, Korea is a competitive team. Rather than preparing for a specific part, we practiced to show the finished image as a team because we are a team rather than an individual. I hope to see results in tomorrow’s match,” he said.
