Indonesia's soccer team to the Olympics? Lesson from Shin Tae Yong In the Asia Football Cup 2024, Indonesia managed to defeat South Korea in the quarter-finals after a penalty match. If Indonesia wins the semi-finals, the team can secure a position in the Olympics. If Indonesia loses the semi-finals, the team needs to fight a playoff for the fourth position. (Only the top 4 countries can advance) The opportunity is here. For the first time in Indonesia's soccer history. *** But what I find interesting is the team's coach, Shin Tae Yong (STY). The man behind the rapid growth of the national team. The AFC 2024 quarter-final match against South Korea was inevitable and difficult for him. Being a Korean, STY has hoped that the team could face his country in the finals, so both countries can advance to the Olympics. Yet fate has put him in a tough position. Being a former South Korean national team coach, he had this emotional bond with his country. Moreover, Koreans could hate him for "betraying" the country (which happened). STY stated that currently, he is responsible for the Indonesian team and has to give his best to the team. When asked about the win, STY answered that he felt happy, yet sad and difficult at the same time. He later apologized to the people in South Korea for the loss. The country has successfully advanced to the Olympics 9 times and nearly broke a new record. "I regret that I have broken the record. It isn't my dream to make the Indonesian soccer team participate in the World Cup if the team advances to the third round of World Cup qualification. My last dream is to return to Korea and work again with the national team." "I apologize to the people of South Korea. I'm very sorry. Competitions are harsh." *** STY taught us what it means to be a professional and uphold his responsibility. He didn't let his emotions disturb the match. While I am happy as an Indonesian, I find STY position to be heartbreaking and difficult. It is never easy to stay professional with conflicting emotions, especially in an emotional sport like soccer. Hope we can learn something from STY

[After bitter defeat, S. Korean soccer coach blames himself, calls for overhaul] Hwang Sun-hong, the head coach of the South Korean Olympic men's soccer team, said he shoulders the biggest share of the blame for the team's bitter defeat Friday at the hands of underdog Indonesia. The 55-year-old also urged for an overhaul of the U-23 national team system, speaking at a press conference after returning home at Incheon Airport on Saturday. Hwang stressed the need for a four-year plan for the youth squad without the pressure of midterm reviews after South Korea was knocked out at the quarterfinals of the Asian Football Confederation U-23 Asian Cup. "The responsibility for the quarterfinal loss falls solely on me as the head coach, and I accept it. Our players have a lot more room to grow, and I urge for a pat on the back (for the players)," he said. Hwang went on to criticize the current system of the U-23 team, which requires the head coach to do well in the Asian Cup if he or she wishes to keep the job. "This may sound like an excuse, but such a system gives (the head coach) only a few months to prepare for the Olympics," he said.

Atlanta 1996 Olympic experience battle between two football giants The reigning World Cup champion Brazil and the spirited Nigeria Dream Team. The Nigeria Football team was gaining limelight after the 1994 US World Cup games. However, the stakes were high, favoring the Brazilian team, World Cup Champion, as the winner would secure a spot in the Olympic Final to battle for the coveted Gold medal. The first half was filled with emotions. Brazil, with its flair and skill, took a commanding 3-1 lead against the Nigeria Dream Team. The Nigerian players were tested; their resolve was pushed to the limit. But they refused to give up. They knew that the game wasn't over; the last minute could be their lifeline. As the second half unfolded, Nigeria rallied. Their determination was notable. As the stadium heated up with the crowd roaring, urging them to keep moving forward. With Brazil stars like Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos (who did an own goal), Bebeto among others, one would not have gotten any hope. As the clock was ticking down relentlessly, the Nigeria team pressed on, they never gave up. Even when Jay Jay Okocha lost the penalty kick, the team still head on to press harder to have a goal afterward, making the score 3 - 2 in favor of Brazil. They fought tooth and nail, closing the gap with a goal. And then, in the dying moments of extra time, it happened — an exceptional moment in Olympic history. Nwankwo Kanu took the game to an extra time with an equalizing goal making the score a 3 - 3 draw. Nigeria scored a golden goal, another triumphant attack from Kanu Nwankwo, turning the tide to a lead for the Nigeria Dream Team. The stadium erupted, tears of joy streaming down faces. Against all odds, they had done it: Nigeria 4, Brazil 3. Here come the lessons I am driving at in this historical game? Never underestimate the power of persistence. Even when the odds seem insurmountable, let's keep pushing forward. The second half of 2024 can be the game changer — the moment that defines your victory. So, whether you're on the field or facing life's challenges, remember: Don't give up. Fight until the very end. Your last-minute effort might just lead to your greatest victory. #DavesNuggets #Football #NigeriaDreamTeam #SuperEagle #OlympicGames #TeamSpirit We can for a formidable connection if you enjoy my content and you would like to follow me by clicking David Alonge ♻️Kindly repost this to help someone from your network today...
