‘Fourth Cup appearance’ Son Heung-min challenges for victory in Qatar, ‘Promised Land’

Before being called up to the national team, he had a great performance, including 4 goals and 4 assists in 7 games. If he makes it to the quarterfinals, he will be the most active player in the Asian Cup and will try to win the tournament by taking advantage of his experience in advancing to the round of 16 of the World Cup.

Son Heung-min (Tottenham), captain and key striker of the Korean men's soccer team led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann (Germany), is aiming to win his fourth Asian Cup.

Klinsmann will play the first leg of Group E of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup against Bahrain at Jassim bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar at 8:30 pm (Korean time) on the 15th. 바카라사이트

Korea aims to win its first championship in 64 years through this tournament. At the center is Son Heung-min, who has added experience to his improved skills.

Son Heung-min was active in the 2023-2024 English Professional Football Premier League (EPL) before being called up by Klinsmann. He appeared in 20 league games and led Tottenham with 12 goals and 5 assists.

In particular, he boasted sharp performance, scoring 4 goals and 4 assists in 7 games in December last year, just before being called up. If he continues his skills on Lake Klinsmann, Korea's victory in the Asian Cup is expected to become a reality.

Son Heung-min, born in 1992 and turning 32 this year, has a wealth of experience. Since his international debut in 2010, he has scored 41 goals in 117 appearances. In the meantime, he participated in a variety of major competitions, including three FIFA World Cups, one Olympic Games, and one Asian Games.

In particular, the Asian Cup is about to make its fourth appearance through this tournament. According to the Korea Football Association, Son Heung-min, along with retired goalkeeper Kim Yong-dae, is the player most frequently listed in the Asian Cup entries.

Also, if Son Heung-min plays all of the group stage, starting with the match against Bahrain, and progresses through the round of 16 and quarter-finals, he will become the first player to play in the most games in the Asian Cup, surpassing the 16 games recorded by former Korea Football Association vice-president Lee Young-pyo. If you make it to the finals and win, you will have the double honor of breaking your own record and winning a trophy.

It is also good news that Qatar, where this Asian Cup will be held, is the ‘promised land’ where Son Heung-min has good memories.

Son Heung-min experienced the round of 16 of the 2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup as a key striker for the national team led by former coach Paulo Bento (currently the head coach of the United Arab Emirates (UAE)).

Son Heung-min, who showed off his fighting spirit while wearing a mask at the time, contributed to Korea's second ever World Cup away tournament by assisting Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton)'s winning goal in the third match against Portugal in the group stage.

Using his experience from that time, Son Heung-min will challenge to win the Asian Cup as Klinsmann's captain and key resource this time.

After the Bahrain match, the Klinsmann will face Jordan on the 20th and Malaysia on the 25th. 카지노사이트
