Korean fans call for Hong's departure
South Korea's head coach, Hong Myung-bo, faced harsh criticism following the unexpected loss to South Africa with a score of 1-0 in the 2026 World Cup. He was blamed for his tactical decisions, especially his decision to exclude star player Son Heung-min from the starting lineup, despite needing just one point to secure qualification. The disappointing performance and the team's failure to create real scoring opportunities led to a decline in the coach's popularity, with calls for his dismissal increasing, although the chances of qualifying remain slim—despite the possibility of advancing as third-place finishers if results improve.
