The Korean U-17 women's national soccer team packed forlornly after being completely defeated by Spain and the U.S.
South Korea, led by head coach Kim Eun-jung, lost 0-5 to the U.S. in the final Group B match of the "2024 FIFA U-17" at Estadio Shivao in the Dominican Republic on the 23rd (Korea time).
Korea, which tied Colombia 1-1 in the first match and lost Spain 0-5 in the second match, also had one draw and two losses (one point) in the group stage. Korea was defeated by the U.S. at the bottom of the group and had a bitter taste of being eliminated.
The score is not good enough, as she scored one point and allowed 11 goals in the tournament. Casey Eugene Fair's goal in the match against Colombia is the only goal for Korea.
Spain ranked first with all three wins (nine points), while the U.S. advanced to the quarterfinals with two wins and one loss (six points). Colombia is third with one draw and two losses (one point).
Korea, which is lagging behind in objective inferiority, attempted a counterattack tactic after preparing for the match. However, it allowed Melanie Barcenas to score the first goal just one minute after the match began.
Soon after, he gave up another goal and was in a difficult situation from the beginning. Kennedy Plough shook the net with a left-footed shot in the 10th minute of the first half.
South Korea lost its third goal two minutes into the second half due to goalkeeper Woo Soo-min's mistake. The ball kicked by goalkeeper Woo Soo-min in a hurry under pressure from the opponent's forward hit the body of the U.S. player, and Barcenas caught and shot it to score a goal.
In the 15th minute of the second half, Korea excluded the pair and put in the low-income government, but it did not have much effect.
Rather, he lost his fourth point in the 23rd minute of the second half. He made another pass mistake during the build-up process and Mary Long finished it off with a left-footed shot.
At the end of the second half, the goalkeeper failed to properly catch Maddie Padelski's shot and was completely defeated by five goals.
"Thanks to the players who did not give up until the end despite many goals lost," coach Kim Eun-jung said after the match. "They are growing. I believe that if we get better at it, we will have a good opportunity. I hope that the players will not shed tears through today's game." 안전놀이터
