I think our team deserves to play in the World Cup." He said, `There are many world-class players in Korea. In particular, there are many outstanding players in the offensive team. "But there are also outstanding players among Jordanian defenders. I think they'll do a good job of blocking it." "South Korea is under pressure due to the results of the last two games, and I think that may be affected as well."We are ready to sleep. I'm looking forward to tomorrow's game." Regarding the time difference issue, he pointed out, "Of course, there is fatigue, but I think we are well prepared for tomorrow's game." "As Korea has a very strong offense, it is most important not to make mistakes in defense."
