National team players training indoors
The national soccer team, claiming to be the leader in Asia for the first time in 64 years, will convene some members first on the 26th and enter 'Asian Cup mode'. During this period, the national team plans to conduct private training indoors and focus solely on checking their condition and recovery.
The national team, led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann, will gather 16 players, mainly K-League players and some overseas players on break, at a hotel in Yeouido, Seoul on the 26th and begin training with weight training at the hotel fitness center.
Of these, 15 will participate in training from the first day, and Hwang In-beom (Zrvena Zvezda) will join the team later.
Until now, when the national team was called up, ground training was never excluded, even in the cold winter. However, this time the national team does not appear on the playground at all.
National soccer team coach Jurgen Klinsmann is being interviewed by reporters prior to the first convocation training held at the Paju Training Center (NFC) in Gyeonggi Province on the afternoon of the 20th.
Coach Klinsmann judged that it was most important for K-League players, who had exhausted their stamina after completing the entire season, and overseas players who were on a tight schedule to regain their condition in time for the competition, and boldly created an environment where they could only focus on indoor training and recovery.
An official from the Korea Football Association (KFA) explained, “This training is not an official call-up, but is aimed at helping players manage their condition,” and added, “This is the first time that no external training is held at all after the national team has been called up.”
The lack of media exposure during this period also attracts attention. Usually, when the national team is called up, an interview is conducted with 1-2 players for each training session to reveal their resolve and convey the team atmosphere.
However, during this training period, there will be no interviews, media activities, or photography or video filming. On the day of the convocation, it will be held quietly without any photo distribution at the KFA level.
Thanks to this, the national team was able to focus solely on recovery without any other schedules while being completely cut off from the outside world.
Instead of training being conducted completely privately, the list announcement is held in the form of a public press conference.
KFA will announce the final entries for the Asian Cup at Yongsan CGV on the 28th, and at this event, Coach Klinsmann will personally explain the background to the selection of the list.
In addition, some of the players included in the list will accompany the presentation site and reveal their thoughts and determination that they were unable to convey during training. 카지노사이트존
