“Huge gap” Korea’s first match against Bahrain on the night of the 15th amid injury warnings including Hwang Hee-chan
Foreign media are confident of Korea's victory, saying "the gap is huge," but we cannot let our guard down. Klinsmann, who is aiming to become the top player in Asia for the first time in 64 years, will compete in the first preliminary round on the night of the 15th (Korean time).
The national soccer team led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann will play the first leg of the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup Group E qualifier against Bahrain at Jassim bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar, at 8:30 p.m. on this day.
This is the first step toward resolving the resentment of Korea, which won the first and second Asian Cups in 1956 and 1960 but has not been able to reach the top since then.
After winning twice, Korea only finished as runner-up four times (1972, 1980, 1988, 2015), and expectations are higher than ever ahead of this tournament. Key players such as Son Heung-min (Tottenham), Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain), Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich), and Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton) are being evaluated as having the potential to return to the top of Asia while performing well in the European 'big league'. In particular, Son Heung-min and Kim Min-jae were selected as the first and second noteworthy players in this Asian Cup, respectively. The injury variable like the last Qatar World Cup is not that big. The situation is at least better than in Japan, where Takefusa Kubo and Kaoru Mitoma are suffering from injuries.

Korea was not shy at the Asian Cup. They have been on a winning streak in the first round of the group stage for three consecutive Asian Cup competitions. In the first match of the 2011 tournament, they met their current opponent, Bahrain, and won 2-1, and in the 2015 tournament, they defeated Oman 1-0. In the first game of the 2019 tournament, they defeated the Philippines 1-0. Korea is expected to win this game against Bahrain as well. Just looking at the FIFA rankings, there is a wide gap between Korea and Bahrain in 23rd and Bahrain in 86th.
