The Korean national soccer team, led by coach Jürgen Klinsmann, will face Saudi Arabia in the round of 16 AFC Asian Cup 2023 at Al-Rayyan Education City Stadium in Qatar at 1 a.m. on Saturday (Korea time). Korea ranked second in Group E with one win and two draws in the group stage.
"Korea vs. Saudi Arabia is the best big match in the round of 16," ESPN said on Tuesday. "One of the two teams should have a longer championship drought. Surprisingly, Korea will advance to the round of 16 as the second runner-up in Group E and meet Saudi Arabia. Korea has avoided Japan, but Saudi Arabia is also a tough opponent." 토토사이트링크
"Korea has world-class striker Son Heung-min, so his offense is formidable. However, he allowed six goals in three matches. This is the third time under an Asian Cup team. Saudi Arabia has scored four goals with two wins and one draw, and its fighting power is not strong enough. However, we have found alternatives in every decisive match," ESPN said, citing South Korea's defense issue.
Japanese media "The World" said, "Korea has many talented players such as Son Heung-min, Lee Kang-in, and Hwang Hee-chan. There are many top players in Asia, but I was nervous in the group stage. Even with the strongest Son Heung-min in Asia, he could be eliminated from the round of 16."
