🇯🇵 Happy to have reconnected with #LAGalaxy captain Maya Yoshida after he had concluded his 22nd season in professional football. Spoke to him about Japan's 3-2 win over Brazil and his thoughts on Son Heung-min at #LAFC. For @fifaworldcup26.bsky.social ⬇️

FT 🇰🇷 2-0 🇵🇾

More than the win itself, the real takeaway here is that Korea weathered the storm with a heavily experimental setup in the last 30 minutes, without Sonny and Inbeom, whilst Minjae was limited to a support role at the back, and even found a way to extend their lead.

‼️ Oh Hyeon-gyu and Lee Kang-in partnership is a key project for Hong Myung-bo’s staff. They’ve been either starting together or both coming on in the second half when there’s more space in behind to attack in transition, and they’ve created big goals against Mexico and Paraguay.

🇵🇾🇯🇵🇰🇷 Paraguay boss Gustavo Alfaro after 2-2 draw with Japan and 2-0 loss to Korea: "Korea use their wing-backs more. Whereas Japan play more progressively in triangles, Korea generally attack from wing to centre. In midfield defensively, Korea are more solid as a unit."

🧐 Jens Castrop’s average position (17) and heatmap for Gladbach today at Leverkusen. Considering the tendencies he showed in two games for Korea and again here, I’m under the impression that he’s more of a vertical player than a positional defensive midfielder.

Kevin Kim hosted the pod- excellent job navigating us - and he was there putting on the first Red Devils tailgate for US v Korea game

EP 5 | Korea's 11th Successive World Cup; What Does It All Mean? Podcast Episode · The Korean Football Podcast · 06/15/2025 · 1h 7m

I was a guest for the newly rebranded Korean Football Podcast put on by Fairpoint Football crew, we went over Korea’s successful World Cup qualifiers over Iraq and Kuwait & what decisions Hong Myung-bo will face as the young-uns made quite a splash podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Korean Football pod is on all streaming platforms
Great job @tuhon.bsky.social for hosting/editing and to @realstevescores.bsky.social for the expert insights into the KNT. Also debut for Joel Kim- had the inside perspectives on Bae Jun-ho in particular at Stoke and how that translates to the KNT.

🍾 FT Korea 4-0 Kuwait. This was never the goal in itself, but Korea finish as the only undefeated side in #AsianQualifiers, a feat they last accomplished in 2010 when they were captained by Park Ji-sung. Regulars have been rested, young players have stepped up. A good result.

It’s been awhile since I was officially back in the game - super stoked to have been invited to the Fairpoint ⚽️Football talking 🇰🇷⚽️ with the best in the biz🤙 just how important will this upcoming World Cup qualifier be for Korea and/or the damage if they can’t finish the job? Find out by tuning in!

🎊 FT Iraq 0-2 Korea. With the win in Basra, Korea secure their 11th successive qualification to the World Cup. Only Brazil, Germany, Argentina, and Spain have currently ongoing streaks that are longer than Korea’s.

Scott provides a great insight on Korea from Suwon, followed by a gush of fury and vitriol from myself and Kevin.

📖 Nice rundown of Korea’s performance against Oman by my colleague Kevin Kim. It was the lack of involvement by both central midfielders that made Korea so uninspiring. I’m fine with using Lee Jae-sung to attack the box, but in this game, he should’ve played deeper.
