Team captain Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur) will also play against Kuwait on the “carpet turf,” which seems to be satisfied.
The national soccer team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, will play Kuwait in Group B of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA North-China World Cup at Jabeur Al Ahmed International Stadium in Kuwait City, the capital of Kuwait, at 11 p.m. on the 14th (Korea time).
Currently, Korea ranks first with 10 points (three wins and one draw), while Kuwait ranks fifth with three points (three draws and one loss).
On the 13th, Hong Myung-bo gathered at the Jabeur Al-Ahmed International Stadium in the final training session.
It was a much better environment than Abdullah Al Khalifa Stadium, which the national soccer team used as a training ground.
In particular, it was noticeable that Son Heung-min bowed down and touched the grass with his hands.
After that, I felt satisfied in the scene where I laughed and talked with director Hong.
During official training, the players’ balls were also smoothly directed.
After the first game against Palestine in September, Son Heung-min expressed regret over the so-called “Nondureung Lawn” at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.
At the time, Son Heung-min said, “There are many players with good skills, and even fans saw difficulties in ball control and dribbling.”
After the second away match in Oman, he said, “The ground was good, so the players played more confidently. I hope (the grass) improves when playing at home. On the other hand, it is regrettable that my condition at the away ground is better.”
The Korea Football Association also played the home game of Game 4 against Iraq at Yongin Mir Stadium, not at Seoul World Cup Stadium.
Fortunately, the Jabeur Al Ahmed International Stadium, where the match against Kuwait will be held, is in excellent condition.
Kuwait is the host of the 26th Arabian Gulf Cup, which will be attended by eight Middle Eastern countries, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Iraq and Qatar, in December, and is making every effort to prepare for the tournament.
The Jabeur Al Ahmed International Stadium will host the final of the tournament.
As such, 바카라사이트 the grass is managed very well through systematic management.
It is a satisfactory stage for Hong Myung-bo, who has excellent individual skills.
South Korea plans to secure its lead by winning the match against Kuwait.
“This is the first A-match game in November. The most important thing is victory,” Hong said. “By winning the first match, I want to win the next match (against Palestine in Game 6), and wrap up my schedule in November. It is important how strong we should prepare for the upcoming match.”
South Korea will conclude its A-match schedule this year with the sixth game of the tournament against Palestine on the 19th, five days after the match against Kuwait.
