I’m excited to say I had the chance to interview Sérgio Costa, the ex-assistant coach of the Korean national team!
In this clip, he talks about the emotional moment when Paulo Bento told his players he would resign after the World Cup.

Barring anything drastic, Jurgen Klinsmann will be terminated as head coach of South Korea tomorrow
I have a feeling he is going to give a tell-all interview with a Western media outlet to rant about how the firing was unjustified
KFA board will have a meeting tomorrow 10 am KR time to decide Klinsmann's fate.
Many Korean media reports there's no way he could avoid the sacking at this point.
As he left Korea in 2 days after Asian Cup, this Zoom screenshot could be his last photo as Korea head coach.

@goalgoalsong
corrected some facts.
- It was not a one-on-one fight between Son Heung-min and Lee Kang-in. Several players were involved.
- Son's finger injury occurred while he was trying to stop the players from fighting.
- Son did not ask Klinsmann to exclude Lee Kang-in

The decision to appoint Hwang Sun-hong is a problem because
