Kim Jin-soo, pinch hitter Seol Young-woo “Director Hong said, ‘Do what you normally do. I will use my strengths”

Ulsan Hyundai defender Seol Yeong-woo (25) went to training for his team on the 26th and received a call from manager Hong Myung-bo, and his heart sank. Since the manager had never called before, I thought something was wrong.

Director Hong said in a somewhat harsh tone, “Where are you? Run into the room,” and he ran like a bullet. However, the words that came back to him were, “Since you were selected for the national team, if you try to do something, you can’t do it.

Seol Young-woo made his first appearance on the national soccer team on the 26th as a pinch hitter for left fullback Kim Jin-soo (Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors) who suffered a back injury in the evaluation match against Colombia (2-2) held at Munsu Stadium in Ulsan on the 24th.

Seol Young-woo, originally a right fullback, said, “If you play well on the left side, you have two options. I will make use of my strengths.”

He said, “When I came to the pros, my goal was always to represent the national team. Many players came and went on both sides of the national team. Due to Jinsu hyung’s injury, an opportunity came to me unexpectedly. I wish my brother a speedy recovery. As it is an honorable position, I want to seize the opportunity.”

In Jurgen Klinsmann’s debut game for the Korean national team, Kim Jin-soo left and Lee Ki-je (Suwon Samsung) came in, but Korea’s left defensive line collapsed and they could not maintain a 2-0 advantage and eventually ended in a draw. 온라인바카라

Seol Young-woo said, “It is important to follow the football the coach wants. However, the manager must have known what kind of play I usually play and called him. I will use my strengths. I will play with confidence.”

He said, “I can play a defensive role well from behind, and I will help the midfielders with linked play. That is my strength.”

On the 28th (8:00 pm), the national team will play the second evaluation game in March against Uruguay at the Seoul World Cup Stadium. kkm100@sportsseoul.com
