Hong Myung-bo has begun adapting to Iraq.

The Korea Football Association said on the 4th (Korea time) that "all 26 people gathered at Al Peha Stadium at 9 p.m. local time in Iraq on the 3rd."

Hong Myung-bo left for Iraq on the 2nd. Since he was designated as a country prohibited from traveling, he flew to Iraq on a chartered plane prepared by the Korea Football Association, and after an 11-hour flight, he shared it with two bulletproof buses. He was escorted by security vehicles and police and took a rest after moving to his accommodation.

Middle Easterners Cho Yoo-min (Sharaj), Kwon Kyung-won, Won Doo-jae (Korpakan), and Park Yong-woo (Al Ain) first arrived at the accommodation and welcomed their colleagues, while Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) was the latest to join.

In the heat of 45 degrees Celsius in the afternoon and 35 degrees Celsius in the evening, the first training began at 9 p.m., as late as possible.

All 26 players, including Lee Kang-in, who was the latest to join the team, participated in the training. According to the Korea Football Association, each player participated in physical training by dividing them into three groups according to the playing time and timing of the game. They then conducted small-side games for coordination training as well as recreation training, attack and defensive position training.

The training was completed after about an hour and a half of heavy sweat. 안전놀이터

"The coaching staff arrived an hour early for the training program based on the Iraq war and completed preparations for the training site," the Korea Football Association said. "It is late at night, but despite the hot weather, the team focused on training in a positive atmosphere. In particular, the team used players in each position in tactical training, and the task of determining who is suitable for the Iraq match was carried out from the first training session."
