Hong Myung-bo, who had been on a roll, matched the risk of failing to win five consecutive games.
The South Korean national soccer team A is currently tied 1-1 at 11 p.m. on the 19th in Group B of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup against Palestine at Amman Stadium in neutral Jordan until 30 minutes in the second half. The match was scheduled to be held in Palestine, but is underway in Amman, Jordan, a safe zone due to the Israel-Hamas war.
South Korea, which lost the lead in the 12th minute of the first half due to Odaie Dabag's goal by Kim Min-jae's back pass miss, returned the game to square one with Son Heung-min's quick equalizer in the 4th minute, but has been struggling without opening the opponent's goal for nearly 60 minutes after the equalizer.
If a come-from-behind goal is not scored for the remaining 15 minutes, five consecutive wins will be eliminated. South Korea was on the rise, defeating Oman (3-1 wins), Jordan (2-0 wins), Iraq (3-2 wins), and Kuwait (3-1 wins).
Even if you don't win the last A match in 2024, you can finish the year in a good mood. In the third qualifying round of the World Cup, South Korea had an advantage in advancing to the World Cup finals for the 11th consecutive time, with six consecutive undefeated games (4 wins and 2 draws) and 14 points.
In the third qualifying round for the World Cup, a total of six teams ranked first and second in three groups will win tickets to the World Cup finals, while the six teams ranked third and fourth in the group will hold the fourth qualifying round, which is a nature of consolation. Hong Myung-bo will play two consecutive home games against Oman and Jordan in March next year.
Coach Hong Myung-bo pulled out the same lineup as the match against Kuwait, which won 3-1 on the 14th. Oh Se-hoon was at the forefront, and Son Heung-min and Lee Jae-sung and Lee Kang-in fired their attack in the second line. Hwang In-beom and Park Yong-woo are in charge of the midfield, while Seol Young-woo, Cho Yoo-min, Kim Min-jae and Lee Myung-jae set up a four-back. Cho Hyun-woo wore goalkeeper gloves. It is a lineup that can feel the will to win two straight A matches in November.
The start was unsettling. In the 12th minute of the first half, center back Kim Min-jae's pass to goalkeeper Cho Hyun-woo was somewhat short. Dabag, who saw through this, snatched the ball with a tackle one step ahead of Cho Hyun-woo, who ran out, and scored with a turning shot toward the empty goal. It was the first goal given to Reyna Brian in the 11th minute of the first half in a friendly match against Peru in June last year.

South Korea, which was hit hard, quickly brought the game back to square one. Four minutes later, in the 16th minute of the first half, a three-way pass leading to Lee Myung-jae, Lee Jae-sung and Son Heung-min completely broke down the Palestinian defense wall. Son Heung-min, who caught the ball on the left side of the opponent's goal area, scored his 51st A-match goal with a right-footed curl shot that stabs the bottom right of the goal to avoid the goalkeeper running out. The moment he beat Hwang Sun-hong (50 goals) to become the sole second-highest scorer in the national team. He scored 10 A-match goals this year, breaking his record for the most goals in a year.
In the 25th minute of the first half, Lee Myung-jae's cross touched Oh Se-hoon's forehead, but it went off to the right side of the net. In the 30th minute, Son Heung-min's shot fell into the goalkeeper's arms. In the 37th minute, Lee Kang-in, Son Heung-min, and Lee Myung-jae's consecutive shots were canceled, and the first half ended in a 1-1 tie.
In the third minute of the second half, South Korea, which faced the second half in a good mood with Son Heung-min's shot, faced a golden come-from-behind goal situation in the seventh minute. Lee Kang-in's sharp cross flew toward the gate. Tall Oh Se-hoon did not connect directly with the header, but checked the position of his colleague who was following him and gave up the pass with the header. Hwang In-beom connected it with a right footed shot, but it missed and went over the net. In the 12th minute of the second half, Lee Kang-in's shot was also ineffective.
Coach Hong tried to make changes to the offense twice in the 19th and 27th minutes of the second half. Except for Oh Se-hoon, Lee Kang-in, Lee Jae-sung, Joo Min-kyu, Oh Hyun-kyu, and Bae Jun-ho were put in. In the 25th minute of the second half, it was interpreted as a replacement to turn the tide again at a time when the atmosphere was given to Davag by dedicating an additional goal crisis to him in the counterattack.
However, unlike the last match against Kuwait, Hong Myung-bo was consistent with his poor concentration and inconsistent hands and feet. He was unable to shake off the opponent's pressure and was often shaken by the opponent's few scoring chances. In the 35th minute of the second half, Son Heung-min calmly connected Hwang In-beom's picturesque space pass to the goal in front of the gate, but it was invalidated due to offside fouls under the Video Reading System (VAR).
