Japan shocked German fans with a 4-1 victory over Germany.
While Japan, the ‘arch enemy’, is on a roll, the Korean national team led by Coach Klinsmann is not even able to achieve its first win.
There are concerns about the widening gap in soccer with Japan.

Japan struck Germany’s net first in the 11th minute of the first half.
Seven minutes later, Germany equalized, but four minutes later, Japan’s second goal came before the German goalkeeper had time to do anything.
Japan, who finished the first half with a 2-1 score, calmly scored their third goal during a counterattack in the 45th minute of the second half, and then secured a 4-1 win with a header in extra time in the second half.
Japan, who defeated Germany 2-1 at last year’s World Cup in Qatar, also won a complete victory in the ‘return match’ held in Germany’s home stadium.
As Japan, the ‘old enemy’, won three consecutive international matches until the victory against Germany, the gaze towards Klinsmann, who had no wins in five consecutive games, became colder.
Coach Klinsmann was unable to achieve his first win in the longest period of history for a foreign coach due to colorless soccer that relied on individual player skills.
Since the match against Peru in June, when Coach Klinsmann’s regime began in earnest, only one goal has been scored in three games, and in addition to poor offensive ability, defensive instability has been exposed each time.
<클린스만/축구대표팀 감독(지난 8일)> “We experimented with things necessary for the growth of the Korean team. Our biggest goal is the Asian Cup in Qatar.”
With the shabby report card, noise outside of the game continues.
Due to his frequent stays abroad, he was criticized as a ‘remote-control manager’, and even went so far as to ask Wales captain Ramsey for a uniform, saying it was a favor for his son.
Although he did not attend the legendary match between Chelsea and Munich, he is receiving unfavorable attention just by being named on the roster during the international match period.
