South Korea U20 coach Kim Eun-jung has hailed the Flying Eagles of Nigeria ahead of their quarter final clash on Sunday night.
The Asian must be well prepared to stand a chance of beating the Nigerian side, according to their coach.
One thing that the Korean coach noted about the Flying Eagles is that they are physically outstanding in all positions.
South Korea beat Ecuador 3-2 on Thursday to set up a quarterfinal meeting with Nigeria at the ongoing Fifa U20 World Cup in Argentina.
The Flying Eagles beat the host nation Argentina 2-0 to book their place in the next stage.
Addressing his post match press conference ahead of the game, Eun-jung stated, “When I watched the game against Argentina yesterday, the Nigerian team seemed to be very well prepared. Players in all positions are physically outstanding and have flexibility. We will do the analysis properly.
“We will prepare hard for the match against Nigeria, so please support us from afar. As an Asian team, Korea is the only team that maintains its pride, so I will prepare well for the next game and produce good results with a sense of responsibility and pride as an Asian representative.”
The Flying Eagles will lock horns with South Korea at the Estadio Único Madre de Ciudades, Santiago del Estero on Sunday evening.
