"You


would


have


expected


it


to


be


difficult


to


advance


to


the


round


of


16,


but


we


were


going


to


beat


Germany


unconditionally."

Park


Yoon-jung's


under-20


women's


soccer


team


expressed


their


feelings


after


reaching


the


round


of


16


for


the


first


time


in


10


years


after


beating


Germany


'Kangho'


at


the


2024


FIFA


U-20


World


Cup


in


Colombia.

The


women's


U-20


team


made


a


dramatic


advance


to


the


round


of


16


with


a


1-0


victory


over


Germany


in


the


third


Group


D


match


of


the


tournament


held


at


Metropolitano


de


Techo


Stadium


in


Bogota,


Colombia


on


the


8th


(Korea


time).


From


the


beginning,


he


continued


his


persistent


offensive


tactics


to


seek


Germany's


back


space,


and


after


Park


Soo-jung


scored


the


first


goal


in


the


22nd


minute


of


the


first


half,


his


team's


fighting


spirit


secured


a


1-0


victory


until


the


8th


minute


of


extra


time


in


the


second


half.


After


losing


0-1


to


Nigeria


in


the


first


round,


South


Korea,


which


tied


Venezuela


0-0


in


the


second


round,


caught


Germany


on


the


same


day


and


ranked


third


in


the


group


(4


points,


1


point,


1


run,


0


goal


difference),


and


got


a


dramatic


ticket


to


the


round


of


16


based


on


the


principle


that


the


top


four


of


the


six


teams


ranked


first


and


second


in


the


group


and


third


in


the


group


reached


the


round


of


16.


Cameroon,


ranked


third


in


Group


A,


and


Canada,


ranked


third


in


Group


B,


confirmed


their


advance


to


the


round


of


16,


while


Paraguay,


ranked


third


in


Group


C,


lost


to


the


U.S.


0-7


after


the


Korea-Germany


match


and


remained


at


one


point,


confirming


their


advance


to


the


round


of


16


regardless


of


the


results


of


the


remaining


games.

Coach


Park


Yoon-jung


delivered


his


feelings


about


going


to


the


round


of


16


through


KFA.


"You


would


have


expected


it


to


be


difficult


to


advance


to


the


round


of


16,


but


we


emphasized


to


the


players


that


we


must


beat


Germany


and


advance


to


the


round


of


16."


I'm


glad


that


the


players


themselves


brought


the


result."


This


is


good


news


at


a


time


when


there


is


not


much


good


news


for


women's


soccer,


and


when


asked


what


the


advance


to


the


round


of


16


after


passing


the


group


stage


for


the


first


time


in


10


years


means


for


Korean


women's


soccer,


head


coach


Park


replied,


`I


hope


it


will


be


an


opportunity


for


Korean


women's


soccer


to


develop


so


that


it


can


continue


to


advance


to


the


group


stage


for


the


first


time


in


10


years


as


well


as


expectations


and


hopes


that


we


can


play


Korean


women's


soccer.'

Ahead


of


the


round


of


16,


Park


said,


"(Brazil


or


Colombia)


is


more


likely


to


face


Colombia.


"It


will


be


a


burden


for


the


players


as


Colombia


is


home,


but


we


will


make


sure


that


we


can


bring


good


results


so


that


we


can


overcome


it


as


well."


To


the


players


ahead


of


the


round


of


16


"As


the


first


game


may


be


the


last


tournament,


I


hope


you


will


continue


to


move


forward


with


more


earnestness


and


with


the


mindset


that


you


can


do


enough."


delivered


the


message.






-After


winning


the


match


against


Germany,


he


was


confirmed


to


advance


to


the


round


of


16


after


the


results


of


the


U.S.-Paraguay


match.


How


do


you


feel?

▶You


might


have


expected


that


it


would


be


difficult


to


advance


to


the


round


of


16,


but


we


emphasized


to


the


players


that


we


have


to


beat


Germany


unconditionally


and


advance


to


the


round


of


16,


and


I'm


glad


that


the


players


brought


the


results


themselves.

-This


is


good


news


at


a


time


when


there


is


not


much


good


news


for


women's


soccer


these


days,


so


what


does


this


advance


to


the


round


of


16


after


10


years


of


passing


the


group


stage


mean


for


Korean


women's


soccer?




Thanks


to


the


FIFA


wild


card


rule


(four


out


of


six


teams


in


third


place),


they


will


advance


to


the


round


of


16.


In


addition


to


the


expectation


and


hope


that


we


can


play


Korean


women's


soccer,


I


hope


it


will


be


an


opportunity


for


Korean


women's


soccer


to


develop


so


that


it


can


continue


to


advance


to


the


group


stage


for


the


first


time


in


10


years.

-How


should


I


prepare


for


the


round


of


16?

▶We


have


to


wait


until


tomorrow,


but


I


expect


Colombia


to


have


a


higher


probability


between


Colombia


and


Brazil.


As


Colombia


is


home,


it


will


be


burdensome


for


the


players,


but


we


will


also


make


sure


that


we


can


bring


good


results


so


that


we


can


overcome


it.

-What


do


you


want


to


emphasize


to


the


players


ahead


of


the


round


of


16?

Unlike


the





qualifying


round,


the


first


game


will


be


the


last


game,


so


I


hope


you


continue


to


move


forward


with


a


more


desperate


mind


and


a


willingness


to


do


enough.
