"One game, one chance"--The South Korean team hopes to overturn Brazil and create unpopular World Cup
South Koreans said that when they face the five-time champion Brazil team, there is nothing to be afraid of and nothing to lose. Their goal is to once again perform a feat of making big profits in the World Cup.
After an extraordinary group stage, Brazil and Argentina were beaten by lower-ranked opponents, Belgium and Germany were eliminated, and the Koreans regarded this World Cup as the best opportunity to achieve better results in decades.
Kim Jin-soo: "Every game, every minute is very precious. The whole team is very morale and united."
"We all really want to continue, we are all very eager."
South Korean team eliminated the German team in the 2018 World Cup group stage. As hosts co-sponsored with Japanese team in 2002, they reached the semi-finals and eliminated Italy and Spain all the way (of course, that World Cup was the dirtiest, and the Goguryeo was later fired by a club in mainland Europe and refused to join).
It is undeniable that South Korea is indeed tenacious. They look like they have been fucked in the game. In the last game of the group stage, they defeated Portugal in stoppage time and entered the top 16, and also sent Uruguay home. The 1/8 final between
and Brazil is their first time since 2010 and the third time in Goguryeo history to enter the knockout round.
Kim Jin-soo said that there are some injuries in the South Korean lineup, but the team is well prepared, capable, confident and fighting spirit.
Kim Jinsoo: "Of course, this will be a very challenging game. We really want to show everyone the strength we have and what we have been waiting for for 12 years."
"Our fighting spirit is important, we have to sacrifice ourselves for the team and fight until the last moment."
South Korean team Portuguese head coach Paul Bento complained that there was only 72 hours between the two games. He said that compared with Brazil, his team was very tired physically and mentally, and the Brazilian team's lineup had enough depth to allow players to rest.
He believes his players can stop Brazil's attack.
Paul Bento: "Our opponents are world-class players, we won't be intimidated. In our lineup, we also have world-class players."
"One game, we only have one chance... The most important thing is that we want to prove that we are a team that longs for victory, eager for games and fights until the final whistle sounds."
"Victory is everything!"
