Lopez Tiger Steam fan stadium condition is very good. The ball rolls very fast, and the water is sprayed on time so it's maintained really well. It was also good for practice.

The cause of the poor performance ultimately comes down to one thing. It's the coach's tactics.

Your TV license fee at work
Finally someone asking the real questions!! The team's excuses were so weak, glad KBS didn't buy it
wait so the reporter basically proved everyone in management was lying?? absolutely savage 😭
They really went hard on the investigation
Respect the clear and accurate analysis
Sounds like the reporter was also done with their BS lol
Penguins also live in South Africa apparently lmao the place isn't just desert and savanna like we imagine. So the whole "they're African so they handle heat better" excuse doesn't even work either lololol
And it snows there too
Cape Town and a couple other major South African cities have Mediterranean climates—summers are mild, winters are warm. One of the best places to live on Earth. Most infrastructure is there so South African players probably live there too, which means Korean players would actually have a better shot at handling the heat and humidity
Lmao a reporter literally doing investigative journalism instead of just reading the official statement, respect 🤔
This is what actual journalism looks like, not just regurgitating what the coach says at a press conference 💯
omg they found out the players were partying the night before the match 💀 no wonder they played like trash
Korean media don't play around apparently, this is the kind of reporting we need everywhere honestly
