The Asian Tigers Arrive
South Korea’s national team has officially touched down in the United States, greeted by thousands of passionate fans. Captain Son Heung-min wasted no time setting the tone for the campaign.
A Leader's Mentality
Speaking to the press on the tarmac, Son stated: "We are not here to take pictures or enjoy the weather. We are here to compete with the giants of the world and survive."
With Bayern Munich's Kim Min-jae anchoring the defense, South Korea possesses the tactical discipline to frustrate elite opponents. Their transition speed makes them one of the most feared teams outside of the traditional European and South American powerhouses.
