The South Korean national soccer team, led by coach Jürgen Klinsmann, will face Saudi Arabia as its second opponent in September’s away A match An official from the Korea Football Association said on Tuesday, “It’s not easy to find a European team for the second match in September,” adding, “We are preparing to play Saudi Arabia as the next best option. We haven’t signed the contract yet, but it’s virtually guaranteed to be Saudi Arabia The Fifa had initially agreed to play Wales and Mexico in England as part of its preparations for the two away A matches in September As a result, Klinsmann’s squad will play the first of the trials against Wales at 3:45 a.m. ET on Sept. 8 at Cardiff Stadium in Wales. Mexico was scheduled to play an exhibition match against Saudi Arabia prior to the match against South Korea However, on March 4, Mexico abruptly canceled the match, citing TV time as the reason, after asking the KFA and the Saudi Arabian Football Federation to suspend negotiations The KFA has been scrambling to find a second A-Match opponent, but with Euro 2024 qualifiers taking place during the September A-Match (Sept. 4-12), it’s not easy to find a European team As a result, the federation is moving forward with the next best option, which is to play games in Saudi Arabia and England, which, like us, have scheduling conflicts with Mexico Given the tight timeline for the trials and the difficulty of finding a new opponent, Saudi Arabia is now the de facto opponent for the second match of the September A matches. The date of the match will be September 12, local time. The venue and time are still to be negotiated “We are still trying to find a European team that is stronger than our national team, but it is not easy,” said an official from the KFA. “Coach Klinsmann also expressed the opinion that it would not be a bad idea to play a Middle Eastern team in preparation for the Asian Cup next January South Korea will compete against Jordan, Bahrain and Malaysia in 카지노사이트 Group E of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup in Doha, Qatar, next January The national team will also begin the second round of Asian qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in November. They will face China, Thailand, and the winner of the Singapore-Guam first round It will be the first time in five and a half years that the national team has traveled to Europe for a test match, and while it will be a treat for fans to see how they stack up against the European giants, it’s also a good way to get a feel for the Middle East in preparation for next January’s Asian Cup and the second round of World Cup qualifiers, which begin in November With no scheduled matches against Middle Eastern teams ahead of the World Cup qualifiers and Asian Cup, Klinsmann is hoping to get some hands-on experience against Saudi Arabia in a September trial He is also pushing for a trial against Vietnam in the two October A matches (Oct. 9-17), which are scheduled to be played
