Korea’s
Next Opponent
Korea’s national soccer team
will play Costa Rica on February
12 at 8:00 a.m. (Korea time) at
the Oakland Coliseum,
California. SBS TV will air the
match live.
It will be a meaningful match
because unlike the European and
U.S. teams Korea has played so
far, Costa Rica has superior
speed and excellent individual
skill, according to Korean
national team manager Dick
Advocaat. “I want to see us
dominate the game with our
improved passing skills,” he
said.
For the “Ticos” (Costa Rican
players), 2006 Germany will be
their second consecutive
appearance in the main round of
the World Cup after a successful
2002 run. Costa Rica recently
defeated the U.S. national team,
3-0 in an evaluation match.
