The starting list for Belho’s second match against the Philippines has been revealed.
The Korean women's national soccer team, led by coach Colin Bell, will play a friendly match against the Philippines at Icheon Sports Complex at 7 p.m. on the 8th. Korea's FIFA ranking is 20th, and the Philippines is 39th. In the first game held on the 5th, Korea won 3-0.
Last year, Korea played major tournaments and important games one after another. After the 2023 Women's World Cup (elimination in the group stage, 1 draw, 2 losses) and the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games (elimination in the quarterfinals), the second round of qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics in Asia was held. Korea was placed in a group with China, North Korea, and Thailand in the preliminary round, and achieved a final record of 1 win and 2 draws, but ultimately failed to advance to the finals.
Now, Korean women's soccer stands at a new starting point. There are no big competitions this year. It is time to prepare for the EAFF E-1 Football Championship (East Asian Cup) in 2025. After that, the 2026 Asian Cup and 2027 Women's World Cup will be held.
We already went on a trip to Europe last February. They won 2-1 against the Czech Republic and lost 1-5 against Portugal. Since the conversation will continue from next year, there is a need to discover new faces and strengthen the team in 2024.
First of all, Korea won 3-0 in the first match against the Philippines on the 5th. The performance wasn't perfect. They attempted 12 shots in the first half but failed to score a single goal. It is clear that the Philippines is a rising dark horse team in Asia, but Korea must look to the world stage. In this second game, we must show perfect performance according to the prepared plan.
The starting list was revealed ahead of the game. Ji So-yeon, Kang Chae-rim, Choi Yu-ri, Lee Geum-min, Jeon Eun-ha, Lee Young-joo, Ko Yoo-na, Kim Hye-ri, Choo Hyo-ju, Jang Seul-gi, and Choi Ye-seul will compete first.
The waiting list included Kim Jeong-mi, Ryu Ji-soo, Lee Eun-young, Nam Seung-eun, Ko Da-ae, Kim Se-yeon, Jo So-hyun, Won Chae-eun, Cheon Garam, Jeon Yu-kyung, Moon Mi-ra, and Casey Fair Eugene.
