The South Korean national soccer team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, will play the third Asian qualifying match for the 2026 North-China World Cup in Amman, Jordan, on the 10th. Hwang Hee-chan was selected for the national team. South Korea, which has one win and one draw, must beat Jordan. Moreover, Jordan advanced to the final after beating South Korea in the semifinals of the last Asian Cup. For South Korea, it must avenge itself.
I met Hwang Hee-chan in London on the 5th. Interviewed in the mixed zone after the seventh round of the English Premier League (EPL) 2024-2025 season against Brentford at G-Tech Community Stadium in London. Hwang Hee-chan "We lost the Asian Cup, so we need to prepare better for this game."It won't be easy because it's the way it is, but you have to focus on bringing the results." "Winning is the biggest goal," he said, adding that "It is the most important to unite as one and continue"
◇ Q&A with Hwang Hee-chan
-You're going on an expedition to Jordan. We have to avenge our loss in the semifinals of the Asian Cup.
▶We lost the Asian Cup, so we need to prepare better for this game. Since it's an away game, it won't be easy. The final qualifying round has always been like that and as I've always said, the result is important. First of all, I think we need to focus on bringing the results. Winning is the biggest goal. I think the parts that continue as we've been together will be the most important.
-Son Heung-min is missing. I think I'll be more responsible as a striker.
▶Of course, many players would be better if we do it with Heung-min, but for now, we don't have any. We can't change the situation, so I think we'll find a good way among ourselves. There were a few games where Heung-min played without him. We tried hard to win and there were some games that brought good results. We don't have any excuses. Winning is important, so I want to focus on bringing the results.
