‘Challenge for the 10th consecutive Olympics’ Hwang Seon-hong leaves today dubai jeonhun

After adapting to the local environment, we entered Doha, Qatar, the decisive battle site, on the 10th and played the first group match against the UAE on the 17th, Korean time.

Sun-Hong Hwang's U-23 national soccer team, which is attempting to advance to the Olympic finals for the 10th consecutive time, will leave Korea today and undergo training camp in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) before entering the final battle site, Doha, Qatar.

The U-23 national team, led by coach Hwang Seon-hong, will depart for Dubai via Incheon International Airport on the morning of the 5th.

On the 29th of last month, Hwang Seon-hong, who confirmed the 23-member national team roster to participate in the 2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U-23 Asian Cup to be held in Doha, Qatar from the 15th, announced that 18 domestic players, excluding overseas players, will be selected at the Icheon Stadium in Gyeonggi-do on the 1st of this month. We gathered together and trained for three days.

The U-23 national team, focusing on recovery, will rest for four days and then leave for Dubai, UAE, where a training camp will be held.

They then plan to enter Doha, the decisive battle site, on the 10th.

This U-23 Asian Cup also serves as the final qualifier for the Asian region for the Paris Olympics, which will open in July.

Korea, which set a new world record for the first time in a row by advancing to the finals of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, increased its world record to 9 at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. If the trip to Paris is confirmed this time, the number of times the team has advanced to the Olympic finals will increase to 10. Hwang Seon-hong's core players, including Bae Jun-ho (Stoke City), Yang Hyun-jun (Celtic), and Kim Ji-soo (Brentford), as well as five overseas players from the European side, are expected to join as the opening of the tournament is imminent after playing their team's game on the 13th and 14th. Of course, there are variables. At the convocation on the 1st, Coach Hwang said, “There are many variables, but we will prepare with hope,” and added, “I think we need to think about Plan B a little bit,” and is preparing for a situation in which joining an overseas team may not happen. Korea is in Group B of the group stage in this tournament and will face UAE, China, and Japan in that order. The first group match will be played against UAE at 0:30 on the 17th, Korean time. Then, the second match will be played against China at 10 p.m. on the 19th, and the final match will be played against Japan at 10 p.m. on the 22nd. If you place in the top three in this competition, you will receive a direct ticket to Paris. If they lose in the 3rd place match and end up in 4th place, they will have to play a playoff against the 4th place team in the African regional preliminary round.
