South Korea manager Cho Kwang-rae will employ forward Ji Dong-won as a left winger along with regulars from the previous match for Tuesday\u2019s friendly against Ghana in Jeonju, North Jeolla Province.<\/strong><\/p>\nCho anticipates Ji will be able to fulfill his role in the only position the team lacked a suitable player in the 4-1-4-1 formation in Friday\u2019s 2-1 win over Serbia.<\/p>\n
This will be the last opportunity for the nation\u2019s elite footballers to play as one before the team\u2019s World Cup regional qualifiers beginning on Sept. 2.<\/p>\n
While South Korea has another friendly with Japan on Aug. 10, the manager decided not to call up his European league players in that game, as they have to prepare for the respective seasons.<\/p>\n
Given this, the boss regards the Ghana match as crucial to test Ji\u2019s adaptability along with other squad members.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the Ghana match, I will make the most out of Ji along with others whom I think are the best 11,\u201d Cho said.<\/p>\n
Cho expects Ji to do his job based on the forward\u2019s past experience in that position in previous international matches.<\/p>\n
The 57-year-old manager will want Ji to support lone striker Park Chu-young along with right winger Lee Chung-yong, and also has a plan to switch Ji and Park Chu-young to enliven the team\u2019s offense.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe left winger should be able to play as a second striker,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cJi played in the position in January\u2019s Asian Cup, and he should be just fine.<\/p>\n
\u201cI also think Park Chu-young is capable of carrying out the role as a left winger,\u201d Cho added.<\/p>\n
Ji hinted he will meet Cho\u2019s expectation, as the 20-year-old said \u201dI\u2019m comfortable with the position and should not have much difficulty.\u201d<\/p>\n
Once the K-League\u2019s Chunnam Dragons forward fits into his role, Cho is likely to confirm the starters for the regional qualifiers ahead of football\u2019s biggest showcase in Brazil.<\/p>\n
The three central midfielders-Sangju Sangmu Phoenix\u2019s Kim Jung-woo and Suwon BlueWings\u2019 Lee Yong-rae, both from the K-League, will pursue Cho\u2019s fast play along with Celtic FC\u2019s Ki Sung-yueng from the Scottish league.<\/p>\n
Left fullback Kim Young-kwon, who passed a test for his role in the Serbia match, will stick at back with right fullback Cha Du-ri, and two central defenders-Lee Jung-soo and Hong Jeong-ho.<\/p>\n
What Cho emphasizes from the starting members, however, is accuracy in passing which he thought the players lacked in Friday\u2019s match.<\/p>\n
\u201dI asked my boys to pass the ball from the midfield quicker than usual in that match, and that led to inaccuracy,\u201d the manager said.<\/p>\n
\u201dI will make sure the players will not play for any loose balls against Ghana,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The national team expects to continue its undefeated streak in its 11 games with seven wins and four draws from October, while Ghana also seeks to achieve the squad\u2019s successful campaign with a 5-2-0 mark, that with a 3-0 over Swaziland in September.<\/p>\n
Korea has a 1-0-2 head-to-head game result against its opponents.<\/p>\n
South Korea will have another warmup with Ghana next Tuesday in Jeonju, North Jeolla Province, before going into the regional qualifiers for the Brazil World Cup.<\/p>\n
