I tuned in second half Morocco vs Korea in the U20 World Cup round of 16, Korea was behind 2:0 but a Morocco handball in the area meant a late penalty goal for Korea. Immediately after kickoff , whistle blows for full-time - lots of Korean players complaining that more time should’ve been added

K League gameweek 30 wrapped up:
Suwon FC 1
Gangwon 0

Ulsan 0
Anyang 0

Pohang 1
Jeju 0

FC Seoul 3

Only 3 more gameweeks before table split, results have changed the equation: FC Seoul swaps places w/Gangwon, the latter now in bottom half. Gwangju barely in top half by 1⚽️diff

Kim Min Jae getting plenty of praise for his showing today.

Hopefully actually heals unlike Achilles

Kim Min-jae did not suffer a serious injury. Tests have 'only' revealed a stress reaction of the calf muscles. Workload management in the coming days [@kessler_philipp]

Castrop with some superb control under pressure and good through ball which leads to a good shot and save.

Jens Castrop scores with a cannon shot… but ruled off for offside. Looked onside to me.

Kim Min-jae started and played 68 minutes for Bayern Munich v Hoffenheim before an injury forced a substitution. Not sure how serious the injury is

Not sure the circumstances of why but Hwang Hee-Chan did not get any minutes today for Wolves 1:3 loss to Leeds at the Molineux. In last 3 PL games for Wolves, he scores, then starts, then is an unused substitute. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Kim Min Jae with a pair of good defensive involvements there: first reading and intercepting pass that led to counter and then a good tackle at the edge of the box

Daejeon 3:2 Daegu - great atmosphere and while I’m not sure exact attendance, at least from K League TV, Citizen’s home ground looked pretty full. Over in Jeonju, surprise result as Gimcheon Sangmu down Jeonbuk 1:2 - a bit of action which saw a Lee Dong-gyeong penalty saved & Kim Jin-gyu goal

Watched Kim Min Jae’s midweek performance and he looked lively with a bit of spark to his speed that was lacking last season. Hopefully the difference between being effectively aggressive rather than look late and silly.

Tied up with work. Kim Min Jae came on as a sub earliest in the second half, Eom Ji Sung played whole 90 as they came back to win, and Lee Kang In came on at '55.
