The Korea Football Association (KFA) said, “Kim Seung-gyu will be discharged at 11 p.m. today and will go into surgery after returning home,” adding, “Kim Joon-hong was called as a practice partner because he thought it would be difficult to train with two goalkeepers for the rest of the year.”
Kim Seung-gyu suffered a ruptured right cruciate ligament during his team’s training on the 18th. I watched the Group E match against Jordan from the stand on the 20th. The association decided that it would be difficult to play with two players, so it called Kim Jun-hong as its training partner.
However, entry registration is not possible. This is because it is impossible to register as a substitute after the first game according to the rules of the championship. Therefore, even if Kim joins the national team, he will watch the game from the stand on the day of the game.
Kim Joon-hong, who received attention by playing as a main player when he advanced to the semifinals of the U-20 World Cup in June last year, was called up for two consecutive games: an away game in Europe in September and an A match in October. 스포츠토토사이트
Coach Klinsmann said at the time, “Kim Joon-hong was selected by goalkeeper coach Koepke himself during the Asian Games national team’s Paju call-up training in early August.”
