Hong Myung-bo's last opponent in the 2026 FIFA North-China World Cup Asian qualifying round, Kuwait, replaced the goalkeeper ahead of the match against Korea.

The South Korean national soccer team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, is set to play against Kuwait at 8 p.m. on the 10th at the Seoul World Cup Stadium in the 10th round of Group B of the third Asian qualifying round for the North-China World Cup. South Korea won 2-0 in the away match in Iraq in the ninth round, recording five wins and four draws (19 points) in nine matches, and confirmed its advance to the finals of the North-China World Cup regardless of the result of the match against Kuwait. It also set a new record of advancing to the finals for the 11th consecutive time.

Kuwait, which will face off against Kuwait this time, has been eliminated early on, with four draws and five losses out of nine matches. There is little motivation for the team to play. However, an away game against Korea is an important test for them to gauge their strength and pursue their future. Of course, the team will play in a serious position.

Meanwhile, the Kuwait Football Association (KFA) said on social media that it had convened a new goalkeeper, Ahmad Adi, after discussions between Abdulrahman Al-Moussa and Juan Antonio Fitch, Kuwait's national soccer team coach. Al-Moussa added that the goalkeeper had already arrived in Seoul and joined the national team. 토토사이트

According to the Kuwait Football Association's explanation, the main goalkeeper Khalid al-Rasidi was in a state of accumulated warnings in the 9th round match against Palestine (0-2 Kuwait loss), making it impossible to play against Korea.
