A pile of Klinsmann’s injuries… Goalkeeper Song Bum-keun suffers a stress fracture in his left foot

 The national football team led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann is suffering from a pile of injuries to its players. This time, goalkeeper Song Bum-geun (Shonan Bellmare), playing in Japan, collapsed due to a stress fracture in his left foot.

On the 26th, Shonan Bellmare officially announced on their website that Song Bum-keun was diagnosed with a navicular stress fracture in his left foot.

The scaphoid is a bone in the middle of the foot, and if a stress fracture occurs here, the pain becomes more and more severe. He had to stop exercising, so the duration of treatment was said to be 6 to 8 weeks. In severe cases, surgery may be required.먹튀검증

As a result, there is a high possibility that Song Bum-keun will not be able to accompany the national team heading to England for the second A-match next month.

Song Beom-geun, who was called up as a substitute goalkeeper following Kim Seung-gyu and Jo Hyun-woo, played in one A-match.

Prior to Song Bum-keun, Oh Hyun-kyu (Celtic), Cho Kyu-seong (Mitwillan), and Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) were injured one after another, making it unclear whether the national team will be called up. There is a growing possibility that Klinsmann will not be able to play the 2nd A match with normal power. Klinsman is scheduled to play Wales on the 8th and Saudi Arabia on the 13th of next month.

It is also of interest to see who will be selected as a replacement for Song Bum-keun. Attention is focusing on whether Lee Chang-geun (Daejeon Hana Citizen), Kim Jeong-hoon (Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors), and Kim Dong-joon (Jeju United), who are active in the K-League 1 of professional football, can join the national team instead of Song Bum-keun.

5 consecutive losses’ manager Sutton applauds Wilkerson’s 7 innings, 1 earned run…”Good pitch to win” Thumbs up! 

Lotte coach Larry Sutton looked back on the match against KT on the 25th and praised starter Aaron Wilkerson for his good pitching.

Wilkerson, who was on the starting mound, kept the mound until the 7th inning, giving up only 2 runs (1 earned run), showing his full pitching. He became a losing pitcher because the batting line was silent, but it was a pitch that was not lacking in applause.

Manager Sutton, who met with reporters ahead of the game on the 26th, said, “Wilkerson showed a good pitch that could bring victory yesterday. But he didn’t get any scoring support and didn’t get the win, but he executed his plan well on the mound, especially commanding all pitches.”안전놀이터

Wilkerson, who joined as a substitute for Dan Straley, is 2-1 with a 1.96 ERA in 6 games this season. Coach Sutton said, “It is not easy to join the team during the season and show a good performance, but confidence is the most important among various factors. He knows what kind of pitcher he is and what is possible.”

He continued, “He knows how to throw the ball well, and he knows how to throw the ball as a pitcher, not just as a thrower. He can put it in and take it out when he wants. He is a player who can read opponents’ swings, turn his plans into performance and make adjustments during the game.”

Out of 5 consecutive losses, the batting line couldn’t play its role. In response, Sutton said, “I order the players to ‘always keep it simple’. When the hitting feeling is good, I have confidence as planned, but if not, the hand comes out easily even with a bad ball.” He also said, “Especially when it’s bad, in 0B-1S or 1B-1S situations, even if you take one strike, you have to wait for it to come into the zone you want before hitting it.

The starting lineup consisted of right fielder Yun Dong-hee, second baseman An Chi-hong, left fielder Lee Jeong-hoon, designated hitter Jeon Jun-woo, first baseman Ko Seung-min, third baseman Gudrum, shortstop No Jin-hyeok, catcher Jeong Bo-geun, and center fielder Ahn Kwon-soo. ‘Glasses ace’ Park Se-woong will be on the starting mound.

Park Min-ji “I want to compete for the championship with Titicun, who is similar to me”

The Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) tour has five major tournaments. To be precise, it is a major level tournament. This is because the tour has not officially designated it as a major tournament.

The Korea Women’s Open, KLPGA Championship, Hanwha Classic, KB Financial Star Championship, and Hite Jinro Championship hosted by the Korea Golf Association (KGA) are major tournaments.

‘Trendy woman’ Park Min-ji (25, NH Investment & Securities) has no wins in the Hanwha Classic and KLPGA Championship among her five major tournaments. If she wins both tournaments, she will achieve a career grand slam.

Park Min-ji took the opportunity to win at the Hanwha Classic (total prize money of 1.7 billion won). Held on the 25th at Jade Palace GC (par 72) in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do, she caught 2 bogeys and 4 birdies in the second round of the second day of the tournament and hit 2 under par 70.

Park Min-ji, who recorded an interim total of 6 under par 138, turned the halfway point with a sole lead while the afternoon group was playing.

Park Min-ji was the runner-up in this competition last year. The rough is long and the fairway is a proof that it is optimized for the narrowly set competition course, so it can be said that there is a high possibility of winning.

At a press conference after the round, when asked about his thoughts on winning the tournament, he said, “Out of the five major tournaments, only the Hanwha Classic and the KLPGA Championship could not win.” “There are still two days left, so I want to be greedy and win. I have a secret plan, but I will reveal it when I win,” she smiled.스포츠토토

He also revealed his thoughts on Ataya Titikun (Thailand), a strong candidate for the championship, who was invited to this tournament. Park Min-ji praised her, saying, “I played together at the Singapore Women’s Open last December, and the distance went far, and I think I was the world’s No. 1 player at that point, but I think he is a great player.”

And he said that he had a lot in common with him. Park Min-ji said, “I heard T.T.Cool said in an interview that ‘Being happy with family comes first before ranking in the world’, and I thought he was similar to me.” revealed the wish.

Regarding the point that this season is not the same as last year, Park Min-ji said, “I don’t think I can play well every time. He explained the reason for the sluggishness, saying, “It seems that the accuracy within 100m has decreased a little compared to before.”

At the same time, he said, “I like the extremes of first place and last place rather than the middle. There are several missed cuts this year as well, and the more I do, the more my concentration increases, and I think I have a better mindset to hit and go up when things go wrong.”

He also said, “I think it’s important to have a mindset to stand up again without being sad when things go wrong,” he said. I think it can be done,” he said.

I was selected to see the future, but now I am in charge… Local Boy Fills the Golden Glove Second Baseman Vacancy

I was selected after looking at the future, but I am in charge of the present.

Moon Hyun-bin (18), from Bukil High School, joined the Hanwha Eagles in the 11th overall in the second round. Born and raised in Daejeon, Moon Hyun-bin attended Daejeon Yucheon Elementary School and Onyang Middle School to develop his dream of becoming a baseball player. He showed decent defensive skills as an infielder, and Moon Hyun-bin, who showed off his ability to make contact as well as his long-running power in hitting, caught the eyes of many scouts. And Moon Hyun-bin wore the uniform of his hometown team, Hanwha.

This is Moon Hyun-bin, who stood out from the first year he joined the club. Moon Hyun-bin was also named in the 1st team spring camp held in Arizona this year. Among the rookies, Moon Hyun-bin and Kim Seo-hyun were the only ones. It is no exaggeration to say that he received a lot of expectations from the club. Moon Hyun-bin, who just stepped into the pro, competed for survival with prominent seniors and achieved the feat of being named in the opening entry.

Hanwha hired Moon Hyun-bin as an outfielder to actively utilize his batting ability. There was already Oh Seon-jin at shortstop to fill the spot he missed after receiving a drunk driving penalty, and Golden Glove former Jeong Eun-won at second base. For this reason, former coach Carlos Subero appointed Moon Hyun-bin as a center fielder and gave him a chance to play.안전놀이터

As the number of days he played in the game increased, Moon Hyun-bin accumulated experience step by step. Even after coach Choi Won-ho took over the baton, Moon Hyun-bin continued to play. Recently, as Jung Eun-won was demoted to the 2nd division, Moon Hyun-bin took his place. Considering that he is a rookie, he is evaluated as showing decent defensive skills.

His hitting is also getting better day by day. He continues to chart his growth curve. Moon Hyun-bin is recording a batting average of 0.256 (80 hits in 312 at-bats, 3 home runs), 29 RBIs and 4 stolen bases in 98 games this season. Moon Hyun-bin boasts outstanding skills to the extent that coach Choi Won-ho said, “It is not easy for a high school graduate rookie to hit like this.”

At the same time, coach Choi Won-ho said, “When we gave a batting opportunity (while rebuilding), there was no player with a batting average in the mid-20s. In light of that, Moon Hyun-bin can be seen as having batting ability. As he gains experience, he will improve further. I still lack a pioneering idea, but I have the ability to hit the ball,” he said, highly evaluating Moon Hyun-bin’s growth potential.

Although he is a rookie, Hyunbin Moon has established himself as a key member of the team. Even at the time of the draft, Moon Hyun-bin was evaluated as a resource to replace Jeong Eun-won when he was away due to military service. Although he cannot play an active role as the starting second baseman right now, he foresaw that Moon Hyun-bin will be responsible for Hanwha’s center line in the not-too-distant future.

By the way, Moon Hyun-bin took the second base spot for Hanwha from the first year he joined. He is still a rookie, so he has many immature points, but he showed infinite potential for growth. If Moon Hyun-bin gains more experience in the future, he may grow into the league’s leading second baseman.

Su-gyeom Kim, the thrilling first win after 11 years of golf “I will become a player who improves in all aspects”

Kim Soo-gyeom (27, Srixon) won the Korea Professional Golf (KPGA) Srixon Tour 16th tournament (total prize money of 80 million won).

Su-gyeom Kim won the championship on the 23rd when the 16th Srixon Tour, which was scheduled to be held at the Solago Country Club, Lago Course (par 72, 7290 yards) in Taean, South Chungcheong Province, was canceled due to heavy rain and lightning.스포츠토토

Kim Soo-gyeom, who tied for the lead with a 6 under par 66 on the first day, played an extended game with Kim Yong-tae (24, Srixon). In the first overtime played on the 17th hole (par 5), Kim Yong-tae made a double bogey and took advantage of the gap to confirm the championship.

Kim Soo-gyeom said, “I am very thrilled to have won my first professional debut win. He still doesn’t realize it,” he said. “I tried to play my game regardless of the ranking. It was helpful for him to calmly decide in overtime,” he said.

Kim Soo-gyeom, who took the club at the age of 16, later than his peers, at the recommendation of his parents, joined the KPGA Pro (Associate Member) in 2014 and the KPGA Tour Pro (Full Member) in 2016, and debuted on the KPGA Korean Tour in 2021. However, he failed to achieve outstanding results and retain his seed, playing mainly on the KPGA Srixon Tour.

Kim Soo-gyeom said, “I want to improve his performance by improving his shot sophistication. He wants to be a player who always develops in all aspects. I want to keep the top of the Srixon points and step on the stage of the Korean tour next year.”

With this victory, he moved up to 4th in Srixon points (33,356.42 points) and 3rd in prize money (33,115,237 won).

Ranking competition + Lee Eui-ri’s departure + 18 consecutive games… KIA, Yoon Young-chul’s management dilemma

Good team performance and managing the young pitcher’s shoulder, he has to do both. A difficult homework was placed in front of the KIA Tigers.

The player with the most innings (as of the 23rd) among rookie pitchers this season is KIA left-hander Yoon Young-cheol (19). He pitched in 18 games (17 starts) and blocked 89 innings. Including the record for two futures league games (13 innings), it is 102 innings.

In 2022, when he was a senior in high school (Chungam High School), Yoon Young-chul played a total of 65 1/3 innings in a tournament hosted by the Korea Baseball Softball Federation (KBSA). At the Youth World Championships in September, he stopped 17 1/3 innings.

KIA did not take Yoon Young-cheol to the finishing camp held in Jeju Island last November. This is because he judged that he threw a lot of balls compared to other pitchers last year. Yoon Young-cheol digested a program focused on physical training at his home stadium (Kia Champions Field, Gwangju).

After joining the KIA, Yoon Young-cheol is taking much more systematic body care than last year when he was in high school. He also took time to reorganize after missing one first-team entry in June.

Even considering this point, there is a voice that management of the back is necessary. Yoon Young-cheol has already thrown 20 more innings than last year. KIA has more than 40 games left in the regular season. Assuming that Yoon Young-cheol plays 5 innings per game, if he plays all the remaining starting rotations, he will go over 140 innings.

Yoon Young-chul’s team senior and Lee Eui-ri played 94 and 2/3 innings in the KBO League regular season in his first year of debut (2021) and 10 innings at the Tokyo Olympics. So Joon So (KT Wiz), the rookie of the year in 2020, also blocked 133 innings that year. Joon Sohn suffered from a decrease in restraint in 2021 and struggled.안전놀이터

In his professional debut season, he played far more innings than he did in high school, and the accumulated fatigue worked the following year. Tom Verducci, a well-known MLB columnist, claims that pitchers under the age of 25 are more likely to be exposed to injury risk if they pitch at least 30 more innings compared to the previous year.
The problem is the KIA situation. Up until the 22nd, they recorded 48 wins, 2 draws and 50 losses, and are in the 5th to 7th places. The competition to advance to the postseason (PS) is in full swing. There is no room for power distribution.

The game schedule is also tight. As of the 23rd, 18 games were not played due to rain. Even after mid-September, there will be few holidays. There are even more games postponed on the road than at home. Even the team’s main starting pitcher Eui-ri Lee will be selected for the national team at the Asian Games (AG) in Hangzhou, which will be held at the end of September. There are no suitable substitutes.

KIA is a team that aims to win. Entering the PS is to protect the last pride. The competition for the top 5 is expected to continue until the final match of the regular season. In this situation, it seems difficult to remove Yun Young-chul from the starting lineup. KIA’s concerns are growing.

‘Best treatment in women’s history’ Roadworks announces three-year contract extension for head coach Kim Jong-min

The Korea Expressway Corporation High Pass Volleyball Team will continue to work with head coach Kim Jong-min for another 10 years.먹튀검증

“We have signed a three-year contract with head coach Kim Jong-min, who led the team to the V-League title in the 2022-2023 season, until the 2025-2026 season as the highest salary in the history of the women’s division,” the organization said on Feb. 22.

Kim Jong-min was appointed in April 2016 and led the club to its first overall title in the 2017-2018 season. In 2021-2022, the team recorded a franchise-record 12-game winning streak, and in 2022-2023, the team completed the first reverse sweep in V-League history.

“We decided to re-sign Jong-min because of his achievements in achieving two V-League championships since its inception and his outstanding team management skills, which have played a major role in establishing the team as a prestigious club,” said the road construction company.

“I am grateful to the club for believing in me and making a good offer, and I will show the unique volleyball of Korea Road Corporation through various attempts with a long-term perspective,” said Kim Jong-min.

With this three-year renewal, Kim Jong-min will now have a 10-year contract (2016-2026), making him the longest tenured head coach in the women’s national team history, surpassing Lee Jung-chul’s nine years at IBK from 2010-2019.

Is it just gorgeous? He also has the skills… Athletics world championship record

There is an athlete who is praised for being the most attractive athlete and criticized for being gorgeous. America’s most popular track and field athlete has set a new world record.

This is reporter Choi Jong-hyeok.

[Reporter]

Wearing different hair for each race, long artificial nails, jewelry on the forehead, and a uniform with a mesh covering the whole body, it looks difficult to walk, but you are the first to cross the finish line.

Richardson, who was on a winning streak with unconventional fashion, was evaluated as ‘the most attractive since Bolt’.메이저사이트

[The only ‘track icon’ Florence Griffith Joyner has a record faster than Richardson.]

Abandoned by her mother and even making extreme choices in high school, Richardson, who found hope in running, was selected as a national team member for the Tokyo Olympics and tested for marijuana in a drug test. The ingredient was detected, so I couldn’t participate in the competition, and it seemed to go downhill after that.

Today, however, Richardson, who started the race wearing ordinary clothes, was a bit different from usual, and changed the world championship record with an explosive spurt, perhaps relieved of the pressure.

It was a record against the criticism that it was ‘just gorgeous’.

Incheon advancing to the Asian stage, a meaningful confrontation with Haiphong

Incheon United will take on the Asian stage challenge. The first opponent is the Vietnamese club Hai Phong FC.

Incheon and Haiphong will play the 2023-2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League (ACL) playoff at the Incheon Soccer Stadium at 7:30 pm on the 22nd.

Cho Seong-hwan, manager of Incheon United. Reporter Seo Hyeong-kwon

Incheon had a season that exceeded expectations last year. Unlike the previous seasons, which struggled with the threat of relegation, they consistently competed at the top. Eventually, after 9 years, he succeeded in entering Final A and finished the season in 4th place.

The fruit was also sweet. As Jeonbuk Hyundai, which had already secured the right to advance to the ACL by ranking in the league, rose to the top of the FA Cup, the qualification to participate in the ACL for the FA Cup winning team passed to 4th place Incheon. It was the first time in the club’s history that Incheon entered the ACL.

Incheon is preparing to go to the Asian stage by unveiling the first ACL uniform ‘TAKE-OFF’, but it has not yet been confirmed to advance to the finals. You have to pass the playoffs to enjoy the joy of participating in the ACL in earnest. On the 15th, Haiphong was decided as Incheon’s opponent. Hai Phong advanced to the playoffs after beating Hong Kong’s Rangers 4-1 after extra time in the ACL East Asian regional qualifiers.

It is a meaningful match. Incheon and Haiphong are known as cities with many things in common. Hai Phong, located in northern Vietnam, is a port city adjacent to the sea. It serves as a gateway to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, and is considered one of the three largest cities in Vietnam along with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. There are also direct contacts between cities. The two cities signed a sisterhood relationship in 1997 and continue to exchange.메이저놀이터

In terms of football, there are similarities between the two clubs. Haiphong also hovered in the lower ranks until recently. They narrowly avoided relegation by finishing 12th out of 14 teams in the 2019 season. In the aftermath of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19), it was not fully progressed, but the 2020 and 2021 seasons also ranked 12th at the last moment.

Just as Incheon improved its ranks under manager Cho Seong-hwan, Haiphong also improved its performance after the appointment of Judin Nghim as manager, and secured qualification to participate in the ACL by ranking second in the league last season. It’s not the first time I’ve been on the Asian stage, but it’s been a while. He participated in the Asian Cup Winners’ Cup in the 1996-1997 season. It is similar that this season, compared to last season, the ranking has gone down a few places. Incheon is 6th, and Hai Phong is 5th.

In Haiphong, there is also a player who worked for Incheon. The main character is Vietnamese midfielder Luong Xuan Truong. Truong is the first Vietnamese player in the K-League to join Incheon on loan for a season in 2016 and played in four matches. I left the K-League at the end of the 2017 lease with Gangwon FC, but this year I joined Haiphong and stepped on Korean soil again against Incheon. Currently, Kim Do-hyeok and Kim Dae-jung, who were with Truong seven years ago, remain in Incheon.

Lee tries for career-high ‘multiple wins’ against hottest team

Lee Yi-ri (20-KIA Tigers) faces the hottest team in the game as he tries to reach a career-high in individual wins. He’ll also have to stop his team’s losing streak.

Lee will make his 21st start of the season against the KT Wiz of the 2023 KBO League at Katie Wiz Park in Suwon on April 22. After struggling with his pitches in the first half of the season, Lee has been “zero” since July, and he has shown more stability with the lead support of new catcher Kim Tae-gun. Ji added a victory on July 16 against the Kiwoom Heroes, pitching six innings of one-run ball, giving him 10 wins this season. It’s the second straight year he’s won 10 games after last season (2022).

Lee will attempt to match his single-season win total against KT on the 22nd. His record last season was 10 wins and 10 losses. While Lee’s form has improved significantly recently with a breakthrough in hitting, fastballs, and aggressive pitching, KT is currently the hottest team in the 10-team division.

KT has won eight of its last 10 games (two losses). Injuries plagued the team early in the season, dropping them to the bottom of the standings, but after overhauling their lineup, they regained their “title contender” form and won 21 of their 26 games in the second half of the season, overtaking SSG Landers for second place in the league. Today’s starter is Uhm Sang-baek, who has made quality starts (QS-6 innings or more and 3 earned runs or less) in his last two games against KIA.메이저사이트

Lee has pitched well in his two starts against KT this season. He threw five innings of one-run ball in his first start on May 30 at home (Gwangju Kia Champions Field) and five scoreless innings against Suwon on May 8. His July appearance came at a time when KT was on the rise.

However, the 2021-2022 season has not been kind to him, with three losses in four starts without a win. In 20 innings, he gave up 17 runs (13 earned) for a 5.85 ERA.

Currently, KT is without its top hitter, Park Byung-ho, due to a left calf injury. Kang Baek-ho, the other leading hitter, is out of the first team. However, Kim Min-hyuk, who was the weakest link in the lineup with a .556 batting average, has been hitting at his best this season. KT is currently riding high on the strength of its two-hit power combination rather than individual ability and form.

KIA has won five of its last 10 games. As of the 21st, they are sixth in the league with 48 wins, 2 draws, and 49 losses on the season. The Doosan Bears and Lotte Giants, who are also vying for a spot in the top five, aren’t far off in fifth place thanks to their inability to climb out of the sub-5% win column.

Recently, KIA’s starting lineup has been weighed down by the loss of ace Yang Hyun-jong to the first-team roster due to poor form, while foreign pitcher Mario Sanchez has struggled for four straight games. Lee Yi-ri will have to lead the team to 11 individual wins and a team victory.
