Lee Kang-in and Son Heung-min of the Korean national soccer team are preparing for a free kick during the match between Korea Republic and Bahrain in Group E of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup held at Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar, on the 15th (local time).

If you take first place in your group, you can maintain your pride, but a thorny path awaits you starting from the tournament. If they lose first place to Jordan and advance to the round of 16 by finishing second in their group, they will lose face and be fooled, but the matchup will be easier. It is the ‘Klinsmann’ that faces a difficult situation. 카지노사이트

Korea, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann, finished the first leg against Bahrain 3-1 and the second leg against Jordan 2-2 in the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup, with 1 win and 1 draw (4 points, +2 goal difference). fell to second place in Group E. I was confident that I would pass the preliminaries, but things were already messed up.

1st place is Jordan. Jordan, who defeated Malaysia 4-0 in the first game, drew 2-2 with title contender Korea Korea, recording 1 win and 1 draw (4 points, +4 goal difference), putting them in Group E with the same points as Korea but ahead on goal difference. It is ranked 1st.

The final rankings of the two teams will be confirmed after the third game.

In the final match of Group E, which will be held on the 25th at 8:30 PM (Korean time), Korea will face Malaysia (2 losses, 0 points), and Jordan will face Bahrain (1 win, 1 loss, 3 points).

Jordan, who is currently ahead in goal difference, has the advantage for now. If both teams win, the points will be equal with 2 wins and 1 draw (7 points). In this tournament, if the points are the same, the winner is considered first, and the head-to-head match was tied 2-2, so all conditions are the same. So goal difference is the most important variable.

If Jordan defeats Bahrain, Korea will have to score 3 more goals than Jordan won against Bahrain to rise to first place. If Korea defeats Malaysia and Jordan draws or loses to Bahrain, it will take first place in the group without complicated calculations.

In the end, Korea must win by scoring three or more goals than Jordan's winning score, or Jordan must draw or lose to regain first place in the group and its pride. The problem is that first place is not always good.

Depending on whether you advance to first or second place in your group, the round of 16 match-up, schedule, and subsequent tournament scenario will completely change. AFC has confirmed the tournament lineup and location according to each group ranking. 토토사이트 추천
