South Korean national team striker Lee Young-joon responded to an interview ahead of the game against Naijiri, revealing his confidence in his game.
He said, “Nigeria is a really good team. I expect it to be a difficult match. Some people may think we are a weak team, but I think that we can rise to a bigger stage based on what we have done so far. If we do well in what we have done, it is possible enough. I do it,” he said, reaffirming his determination that he is looking forward to the next stage, not the stage of the quarterfinals.
At the U-20 World Cup, Lee Young-joon, who received a lot of attention for his outstanding decision-making and versatility, contributed to the team’s victory on the 23rd of last month when the Korean national team won 2-1 in the first round of the group stage against champion France. In the round of 16, he shook the net with a fantastic volley against Ecuador and led the team to advance to the quarterfinals.
Regarding the scoring scene in the round of 16, he recalled, “When such a chance came, if you think it was inside, you won’t go in.
In addition to his scoring scene, Lee Young-joon is attracting attention as the next-generation goal scorer for the Korean national team, showing strength in play and linkage using height and physicality.
He also mentioned his role model, saying, “I like Kane. Shooting is my strength, but he is a good player in many ways. I have him as my role model.” He shows strength in the post play and in the post play.”
In addition to his strengths and role model, Lee Young-joon said, “I think I need to practice more in the future for the technical aspects of linking with colleagues, quickness, and shooting from the front,” saying that he is always thinking about the parts that need to be improved, and pledged to develop.
On the other hand, when asked about the Korean national team’s record of reaching the quarterfinals in this tournament, Lee Young-joon also revealed his aspirations that he was looking for a higher place.
He said, “All countries came to the competition with the goal of winning. From the beginning, we have been practicing to get good results. We came here to achieve good results in the world competition. Of course, we can believe in the coach and come together as one with faith. I thought I had it, and I had the belief that I could go higher.”
