The national soccer team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, won 2-1 in the second round of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup against Oman at the Sultan Qaboos Stadium in Muscat, Oman on the afternoon of the 10th (local time). In the 37th minute of the second half, when the team was facing 1-1, Son Heung-min's wonderful left-footed shot decided the game.
It was a difficult game. South Korea scored the first goal in the 10th minute of the first half. Hwang Hee-chan, who received Son Heung-min's pass, shook the net with a sharp shot. It seemed to be an easy game. However, arrogance was also formidable. Since the middle of the first half, he has increased his ball possession rate. It drove South Korea. Korea was shaken. He kept giving up the lead. Anxiety struck. He gave up the equalizer in the extra time of the first half. A sharp cross from Oman's set piece. This ball went through Jung Seung-hyun's head. It was Jung Seung-hyun's own goal.
Even in the second half, Korea's performance was not cool. He was shaken by Oman's counterattack. There was an ambiguous situation for 10 minutes in the second half. Son Heung-min fell while competing for a ball in the opponent's box. The referee declared a penalty. The Omani players protested loudly. I saw the VAR. The reading alone took about four minutes. In the end, no foul and penalty kicks were canceled. The flow has become subtle. Korea has become more difficult.
On top of that, more than 27,000 Omani spectators poured out their support. Oman continued to haunt Korea. It would not be strange if Oman scored a come-from-behind goal.
At this point, Son Heung-min shone. Lee Kang-in stabbed the pass. Son Heung-min caught the ball in the arc circle. The defender was surrounded by four men. Son dribbled off the defense. And left footed shot, shook the net.
The excited Omani crowd went silent. I had no choice but to watch Son Heung-min's ceremony.
An Oman official approached the reporters.And what you say.
"Sound goal. Oh, foul?"
I had no choice but to smile And I left a word.
'Absolutely goal'
And 11 minutes of extra time in the second half. Son Heung-min made one more. After beating the defender with his individual skill, he poked the pass. Joo Min-kyu made a shot and a goal. He led 3-1 and more than 27,000 Omani fans went out of the stadium with their heads down. Son Heung-min silenced his arrogance and made him go home.
Eventually, Captain Son Heung-min raised Korean soccer in Oman.
