"I'll give it everything I've got to win gold," says 'finalist' Hwang Sun-hong

With just one game left to win men's football gold at the Hangzhou 2022 Asian Games, South Korea's coach Hwang Sun-hong is determined to complete his gold medal haul with a win against South Korea.

"As expected, it was a difficult game," Huang said at a press conference after the men's football semi-final against Uzbekistan at the Hangzhou Asian Games at the Huanglong Sports Centre Stadium in Hangzhou, China, on Thursday. There are no easy wins in football," he said, giving credit to the players for their determination.

The Korean men's football team, led by Hwang, defeated Uzbekistan 2-1 in the semi-final earlier in the day thanks to a brace from Jung Woo-young (Stuttgart) to reach the final.

The Korean men's football team is now just one match away from a third consecutive Asian Games gold medal, following Incheon 2014 and Jakarta-Palembang 2018.

The team reaffirmed their status as one of the strongest teams at the tournament with a 2-0 win over China in the quarter-finals in front of an overwhelmingly supportive home crowd, followed by a close encounter with 'age-group champions' Uzbekistan.

"Today's game was a case of being dragged down by the pace of the opposition. We didn't show much of what we are good at," Hwang diagnosed.

On the conceded goals from free-kicks, Hwang said, "Against a team that has a free-kick specialist, there are some things we can't control, such as fouling in dangerous areas," but added, "You can't play football without conceding any goals."

He added: "The game can be different depending on the opponent. We are positive about the victory," he said, adding that he was grateful for the players' determination and focus in a difficult match.

South Korea will play Japan in the gold medal match on Sunday. It will be a "final showdown" with Japan following the Jakarta Games five years ago. Five years ago, Korea won 2-1 in extra time.

"We have to win regardless of the reason," Hwang said of the Korea-Japan match, "We have one last shot left, and we will give it our all to win the gold medal. We will work together and take the last step together," he said encouragingly.

The status of key flanker Uhm Won-sang (Ulsan), who was substituted midway through the second half after complaining of discomfort in his leg after being tripped up by a hard tackle from an opponent, remains a variable.

"We have been doing well without any major injuries so far, but Uhm Won-sang is injured," Hwang said, adding, "We need to check his condition." 안전놀이터
