This remark was very unpleasant to the South Korean media. "Sports Korea" said, "Are you kidding? The Japanese coach said that South Korea is very strong, and Japan is lucky to win." In the report, he said: "Although it is not a mockery, it is shameful to lose. South Korea, which plays the ball, is said to be a strong team, and the head coach of the Japanese team once again dealt a heavy blow."
