(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Ahn Hong-seok = Hwang In-seon-ho failed to advance to the quarterfinals of the 2022 FIFA Women’s U-20 World Cup following losing to France due to lack of goal determination.
The Korean national team, led by coach Hwang In-seon, scored the winning goal in the 29th minute of the second half in the final group C match held at the San Jose National Stadium in Costa Rica on the 18th (Korean time) and lost 0-1 to France.
Korea, which previously beat Canada 2-0 and lost 0-1 to Nigeria, was only 3rd in the group (3 points, 1 win and 2 losses) and did not advance to the quarter-finals to advance to the second place in the group.
The last time Korea reached the quarterfinals was in Canada in 2014.
Hwang In-seon, the first female head coach in Korean football history, unfortunately ended her first international challenge.

Nigeria, who won 3-1 over Canada on that day, advanced to the quarterfinals with 1st place in the group (9-3 wins) and 2nd place (6-2 wins and 1 loss).
Canada, which was classified as a strong team, lost all three matches and was placed at the bottom of the list.
Director Hwang In-seon brought up the 4-3-3 tactic of entrusting the attack to Jeon Yoo-kyung (Pohang Girls’ High School), Cheon Ga-ram (Ulsan University of Science and Technology), and Ko Da-young (Daeduk University).
In the midfield, Lee Se-ran (Korea University), Bae Ye-bin (Pohang Girls’ High School), and Kim Eun-joo (Ulsan University of Science and Technology) were in charge.
From left, Handa-in (Korea University), Ha-yeon Moon (Gangwon Provincial University), Su-in Lee (Korea University), and Hyun-jin Bin (Wideok University) formed the defensive line.
The goalkeeper glove was Kim Kyung-hee (Changnyeong WFC).
Perhaps because of a sudden injury, France replaced the starting goalkeeper from Petitto Marie to Siever Marie Morgana just before kickoff.

Korea took the lead in the midfield fight with an advantage. In the first half, Korea’s possession of the ball was 60%.
However, it was not enough to break through the French defense line. A decisive scoring opportunity was seldom created.
Rather, France made a scene close to the goal first.
In the 38th minute of the first half, the French forwards stirred up the Korean front door and threatened the goal.
French MF Megan Hoelzel finished the ball with a mid-range shot and hit the right post following the Korean defense managed to clear the ball.
Korea did not stand still.
In the 46th minute of the first half, Jeon Yu-kyung dug into the left and passed the cutback, and Ko Da-young opened it with a right-footed shot from the front of the goal area. However, the shot went straight to the goalkeeper and the goal was not scored.
Manager Hwang In-seon replaced Jeon Yoo-kyung, who played a lot in the first half, in the 15th minute of the second half and replaced Lee Eun-young (Korea University).

In the middle of the second half, Korea lost its speed advantage due to lack of physical strength, and France gradually took the lead.
In the end, Korea conceded a goal to French ace Esther Mbachem-Niaro in the 29th minute of the second half.
In France’s counter-attacking situation, goalkeeper Kim Kyung-hee managed to save a shot from Mancita Traore.
However, a header from Mbachem-Niaro following a diagonal cross by Vicki Becho might not be stopped.
Korea, pushed to the edge of the brink, tried to change by sending in tall striker Ko Yu-na (Ulsan University of Science and Technology). However, the expected equalization goal did not happen in the end.
South Korea led 11-9 in shots and 4-2 in on-target shots, but they cried because of their lack of goal determination.
