Japan, which confirmed its advance to the 2026 FIFA World Cup finals in North Korea and China early on, is leisurely checking the results of other countries' matches. In particular, Japan seemed somewhat surprised at Korea's draw against Jordan.
Japanese media "GetSaka" and others focused on the results of Group B's 8th match of the third Asian qualifying round for the FIFA North-China World Cup between South Korea and Jordan on the 25th. South Korea, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo (56), failed to confirm its advance to the World Cup finals early as it drew 1-1 against Jordan at Suwon World Cup Stadium.
As a result, Korea remained atop in eight matches with four wins, four draws, and 16 points. If the team wins against Jordan, Korea will be able to confirm its advance to the World Cup. However, Team Hong Myung-bo was reeling from all three recent World Cup qualifiers.
"Korea is close to advancing to the World Cup for the 11th consecutive time even though it has continued to draw with Jordan. Group B has neither participation nor elimination. The results will be released in June," the GetSaka said.
Hong Myung-bo was able to confirm his advance to the World Cup finals if he won one of the two consecutive A matches in March. However, he only gained two points in two games held in Korea, putting him in a position where he had no choice but to bring in all the elite members in the A-match in June.
Japan, led by Coach Moriyasu Hajime, 57, became the fastest country in the world to advance to the World Cup finals. In its leisure time, Japan recruited a mix of key players and candidate players against Saudi Arabia. It had a 0-0 draw, acquiring the sense of national team play among its rotation members.
Japanese netizens were surprised at the result of Korea's match. According to "Yahoo Japan," Japanese soccer fans responded to Korea's draw against Jordan, saying, "The result was bad, but the content was also terrible. If Japan encounters the current Korea, chances are high that Japan will win a big match," and "Korea received a beautiful team. But can't we win without an S-class player?" and "Korea is always caught up after scoring the first goal. Even if Korea can win, it cannot win." 메이저사이트
Other sharp criticisms such as "Why has Korea's level been so low?" and "It seems that there are only flankers in Korea right now. Overall, the struggle seems weak," and "If this happens, you will never beat the world's strongest teams."
