He laughed at the first game. However, receiving five warnings made it difficult for the Korean national team to play. Both Son Heung-min and Jurgen Klissmann expressed their dissatisfaction.

Coach Klissmann complained about the decision at a press conference after the first Group E match against Bahrain at the 2023 Qatar Asian Cup at Alayyan Jasim bin Hamad Stadium on the 15th.

“It was a tough game. The Chinese referee gave us too many cards in the early hours. This made it difficult to run the game,” he said.

“I felt that even if my foul is weak, I could be sent off. That’s why I tried to replace Kim Min-jae and Lee Ki-je,” he said. “We have too many yellow cards from the first game. This is something we need to think about.” 토토사이트 순위

South Korea caught Bahrain 3-1 in the first match of the Asian Cup. Bahrain was once balanced as it chased, but won with two consecutive goals.

However, the management of the game remained regrettable. As many as five warnings were issued. Notably, the number of warnings was accumulated from the beginning of the game. Nine minutes after the start of the game, Park Yong-woo (Al-Ain) received the first warning for his rough foul on the opponent team, Ali Madan. In the 13th minute of the first half, Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich) was also given a warning while defending Muhammad Marhun. In the 28th minute of the first half, fullback Lee Ki-je (Suwon) was also given a warning.

In the end, Klinsmann replaced Lee Ki-je with Kim Tae-hwan (Jeonbuk Hyundai) in the seventh minute of the second half, Kim Min-jae with Kim Young-kwon (Ulsan Hyundai) in the 27th minute, and Park Yong-woo with Park Jin-seop (Jeonbuk Hyundai) in the 37th minute. Korea received a total of five warnings on the day.

In the match between Korea and Bahrain, three Chinese players including referee Manning, assistant referee Zhou Fei and Zhang Cheng were in charge of the match. Even if the intensity of the foul was weak, a warning was immediately given. What was more controversial was that it was lenient on Bahrain. Bahrain faced South Korea with tough tackles, but none of the warnings were given. When Son was given a warning, Korean spectators booed him.

After the game, Son met with local reporters and expressed his regret. “It was a useless warning. It wasn’t a simulation, but I tried to run and hit it, so I fell down trying to avoid hitting it. We need to manage our warnings well. Players also don’t want to play as 10 players. I will prepare well for the next game so that I can control this situation well,” Son said.

The warning that they received at the group league will remain in place through the quarterfinals. If two more warnings are accumulated, they will be banned from one match. This means that the five players who received the warning at the match on the day will have to play in the remaining two group league matches and the quarterfinals with the risk of being suspended. Furthermore, if they are warned at the quarterfinals, they will not be allowed to play in the semifinals. Managing fouls will likely be a critical factor in winning the championship.
