The Hong Myung-bo squad, currently competing in the North and Central America World Cup, held a closed-door training session in Monterrey ahead of their final group stage match against South Africa.

Lee Han-beom, a key pillar of the three-back defense, expressed confidence, stating that the defensive line is becoming increasingly solid with Kim Min-jae at the center.

Although a draw would be enough to advance to the Round of 32, the team is preparing for the match against South Africa with the determination to "win no matter what."

With the heat in Monterrey and South Africa's fast-paced offense emerging as key variables, the national team is aiming to secure their spot in the Round of 32 on their own terms.
