“I apologize to the fans who were disappointed. I collapsed under the weight of responsibility. I take responsibility”
Kim MinJae, a solid man both inside and outside the pitch. Yesterday he made a rather harsh statement at the end of the match between South Korea and Uruguay. A few minutes ago, an apology arrived via Instagram
Kim apologizes to the fans
—
Below, the words of the blue defender: “First of all, my observations. I’m sorry for the players and fans who must have been surprised. The meaning of difficulty has been misrepresented. I’m a representative player, you can’t do your best best when you get named in the national team squad, when you start a national team match. I never took that for granted. Due to a minor injury, due to long flight time, due to competition, the my body is tired. There is no such thing as a tough game. I gave everything and sacrificed. In yesterday’s interview, I wore the Taegeuk brand: 49 games played went. I became a player who thought lightly and without knowing, in the team that was just having fun In a situation where there is ever increasing pressure, I had a mental breakdown, due to the pressure on the pitch, the responsibility to always do well The disappointment of conceding goals from defender hours: these are difficult times. I am very loved and know now that I am a blessed player. I think it’s something we all need to overcome together as soon as possible. You acknowledge that you have a mental issue that needs to be addressed as a representative player. To the fans and players who must have been disappointed, I apologize once again. Always support the national team. Thanks to the fans who came to the stadium.”
