In a press conference after the game, coach Shin Sang-woo used all the players through two consecutive games. I didn't want to just check it out in training. I wanted to give everyone the tension of the A-match in Korea." No matter how friendly it is, it is rare to change all of the best 11 in an A match that determines victory or defeat. Moreover, it is not an easy challenge for four out of 11 players to make their A-match debut against Colombia, the quarterfinals of the World Cup. In this regard, coach Shin said "If you say there was no pressure, it's a lie" and "If someone had to do it for the development of women's soccer, I wanted to do it." Even if the result goes wrong in the process, I have no regrets about choosing it." "For the development of women's soccer, it should be done. Our players need to improve further. I need to develop so that I can show good performance and wear my own color. I have no regrets about the drastic appointment." .
Colombia's two consecutive games were the offensive line, reaffirming the potential and competitiveness of young players. Coach Shin said, `Young players such as Jung Da-bin, Jeon Yu-kyung, Park Soo-jung and Casey did well in the offensive team. The loss of our women's soccer was a big part of not scoring. It has highlighted the creation of opportunities for these players to score goals" he complimented. "If young players continue to gain experience, we will be able to play a winning game consistently, not a losing team every time."
When asked about the criteria for selecting the best 11 ahead of the East Asian Cup, next year's Asian Cup, and next year's World Cup in Brazil, coach Shin said, `Anyone on the field must faithfully perform their duties," he replied. "The reason I look at the WK League in person is to see who works hard and how much. I'm also looking at what young players saw and learned while entering Europe. I think I can make my color hard through the convergence of players who play sincerely in the WK League." "If you have a lot of time, if you have a lot of time, you have a lot, but if young players like today perform, I think the existing veteran players will be nervous."," he added.

-a general review of the game
Thank you to the ▶ players. Four players played the first A match today, and there were many players who played just one or two games. Young players and national team players under the age of 20 played their best as a team. Thank you for running well until the end. It would have been better if I had won, but thank you for doing your best until the end.
How to Evaluate Today's Game From a Generational Change Perspective
▶But basically, the players were not too bad in terms of game management. Still, I think it would have been easy if there were still veterans and experienced players in the element. Thank you to the players who did their best.
-The two-game series against Colombia gave us the advantage
▶I kept insisting on four backs because I was a part of the team, but I changed my strategy to a back three because Colombia is also a team that utilizes speed and space. I trained three-back for two days. I think our players wanted to do it. I think it's good to perform well in a short time. For young players, I think this game was a great motivation and an opportunity for women's soccer to develop.
-You experimented with 11 starters, and whether you should see it as an infinite competition, and what kind of outline you are looking for ahead to the East Asian Cup.
▶ All the players were used through two consecutive games. I didn't want to just check it out in training. I wanted to give the tension of the A-match in Korea. It can be more difficult to do it in a more familiar place. There is also the East Asian Cup that gave all the players a chance, but since next year's Asian Cup is coming up, I told you in advance that I will use front-line players for the convergence of veterans and young players.
-It's a friendly match, but I don't know if there was any pressure to change all of the best 11
▶ It's a lie to say there wasn't. If someone had to do it for the development of women's soccer, I wanted to do it. Even if the result goes wrong in the process, I have no regrets about choosing. It should be done for the development of women's soccer. Our players need to improve further. I need to develop so that I can show good performance and wear my own color. I have no regrets about the drastic appointment.
-Can you tell me in detail what you saw most impressively through this two-game series in Colombia?
▶ More than anything else, young players such as Jung Da-bin, Jeon Yu-kyung, Park Soo-jung, and Casey did better on the offense. What our women's soccer is losing was a big part of not scoring. So I lost. In that regard, these players mentioned earlier highlighted the creation of opportunities to score goals. As a result, I didn't score directly, but if such players continue to gain experience, I think we will be able to play a winning game, not a losing team every time.
-Defensively, it's a bit of a bummer.
▶The defense must be repeated through training. What has been supplemented and supplemented through meetings is that the best should be decided in order to prepare well for the competition while training.
-How about making Shin Sangwoo's top 11? What is the coach's soccer.
▶ Anyone in the playground must faithfully perform their duties. The reason for watching and looking for the WK League is to see how hard they work Intuition. I'm also looking at what young players saw and learned while entering Europe. I think I can make my color hard through the convergence of players who play sincerely in the WK League. If you have a lot of time, if you have a lot of time, if you have a lot, you have a lot, but if young players like today show performances, I think existing veteran players will be nervous.
