Jung Woo-young’s toes exploded. Free kick chance outside the box in the 20th minute of the first half. Jung Woo-young, who played as a kicker, shot boldly even though the distance was a bit far away. The ball, which flew without rotation, passed through the defense wall and bounced once to the floor to break the net. It was a goal that the goalkeeper could not even react to.
In the remaining time, Kaliz won the game completely thanks to Togo mercenary Khaled Nari’s additional goal and the opponent’s own goal. It was an important point for the ranking competition.

Klinsmann said he is constantly checking on Jung. Attention is focusing on whether Jung, who is an active player in Saudi Arabia, will be selected.
