“I don’t think it will be easy for Korean soccer in the future if this aspect is not supported.”
The Korean Asian Games national soccer team, led by coach Hwang Seon-hong (55), played the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games final against Japan at the Huanglong Sports Center Stadium in Hangzhou, China at 9 p.m. on the 7th (Korean time) and won 2-1.
As a result, Korea succeeded in winning the competition for the first time three times in a row, following the 2014 Incheon and 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games, and for the sixth time in history.
The game against Japan was not easy. Although Korea was ahead in terms of objective power, the game went strangely as they allowed a goal just 1 minute and 20 seconds after the game started.
However, Jung Woo-young’s golden tying goal in the 27th minute of the first half brought the game back to square one, and Cho Young-wook scored a comeback goal in the second half to turn the game around.
Coach Hwang Seon-hong, who held a press conference after the game, said, “The finals were always difficult,” and added, “We won because the players did their best. I think we were able to be here because of the fans who believed in us. The players also did their best. “However, I don’t think this result would have been possible without the efforts of the support staff and coaching staff. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude,” he said, expressing his feelings about winning.

Coach Hwang Seon-hong cautiously opened his mouth, saying, “Soccer is becoming more and more detailed. I think it should be supported.”
He said, “For this tournament, both the physical part and the analysis part worked together. The reason why Jung Woo-young is replaced at the 60th minute in every game is because his performance is exhausted in 60 minutes. We divided those parts in detail and decided on a replacement. “I’m taking advantage of it. If this aspect is not supported, I don’t think soccer will be easy in the future.”
At the same time, Coach Hwang emphasized, “I think we should work together to support players by increasing manpower in those areas. If we do not work together, it will be difficult to develop Korean soccer. If we prepare in these areas, I am confident that we will be able to compete in the Paris Olympics.”
Coach Hwang Seon-hong said, “I think the meaning of being a leader is continuous. It is not the end. Tomorrow, I will crave something again and will try to achieve it again. I think the meaning is to quietly go my own way. Winning only gives once. “We need to prepare for the Olympic qualifiers,” he added.
