On the evening of September 5, South Korea unexpectedly drew 0-0 with Palestine in the third round of World Cup qualifiers. After the match, Son Heung-min stated that although he was disappointed, he did not think everything was terrible.
Son Heung-min said, “When we don’t win, it’s more disappointing and painful than anything else, and tonight feels like a tough night. But I believe the players have done their best under difficult circumstances, and despite the challenges we faced, we still created many opportunities.”
“I don’t think everything is terrible. When Palestine comes to play an away game, especially against us, they tend to defend more tightly and strive not to concede goals. So, we have some tasks to address. Of course, this is painful, but we can’t lose heart. We’ve only played one game, and there are nine more games left, each providing an opportunity for us to perform at our best, so we need to prepare for these matches.”
According to the schedule, the South Korean team will face Oman away at 10 PM on September 10.
