[골닷컴, 카타르 알라이얀] Reporter Kim Hyeong-joong = K-League top scorer Cho Gyu-seong succeeded in starting his dream World Cup.
The Korean national soccer team will play the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar World Cup Group H qualifier second leg against Ghana at Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on the 28th at 10:00 pm (Korean time). After a draw against Uruguay, the national team is determined to increase their chances of advancing to the round of 16 by adding three points against Ghana. Ghana, who was unexpectedly defeated by Portugal in the first match, is expected to engage in an all-out war against Korea.
Coach Bento replaced three starting players compared to the last game against Uruguay. First, Cho Kyu-seong was chosen instead of Hwang Ui-jo as the frontline striker. The intention is to trust the killer instinct of K-League top scorer Cho Kyu-seong instead of Hwang Eui-jo, who lost confidence after missing a golden chance in the game against Uruguay. Cho Kyu-seong was the top scorer in the 2022 K-League with 17 goals. In the game against Uruguay, he was substituted and showed sharp shooting during the 20-minute run.
In addition, the number of personal social media (SNS) followers surged after the war with Uruguay. The image captured on the relay screen is stealing the hearts of women all over the world, and the number of followers, which used to be around 40,000, is now approaching 800,000. If he scores and roars against Ghana, more fans are expected to pay attention to him on social media.
In addition, coach Bento made Jung Woo-young and Kwon Chang-hoon, who are playing in Germany, as starters for the first time. Jung Woo-young will take the place of Lee Jae-seong, and Kwon Chang-hoon will take the position where Na Sang-ho played.
The other positions are the same as before Uruguay. His gloves are worn by Kim Seung-gyu, and Kim Young-kwon, Kim Min-jae, Kim Moon-hwan, and Kim Jin-soo are on the back four. Hwang In-beom and Jung Woo-yeong are located in the midfield, and Son Heung-min is also selected as a left wing forward.
