Hong Myung-bo laughed first with Oh Se-hoon's first goal in a home showdown between Korea and Iraq, which had an unbeaten World Cup qualifier.

Oh Se-hoon, who was selected as a front-line striker, finally scored in his fourth A-match.

Bae Jun-ho, the 21-year-old youngest who started on the left wing that Son Heung-min was defending, made an impression with assists for two consecutive games following the match against Jordan.

In the fifth minute of the second half, coach Hong Myung-bo's replacement card briefly allowed the tie by missing Hussein, the "No. 1 guard."Moon Seon-min, who put in the act

, saved the ball with grit, added Lee Jae-sung's fighting spirit, and Oh Hyun-kyu shook the net.

Oh Hyun-kyu, a striker born in 2001, scored in two consecutive games.

At the end of the second half, veteran Lee Jae-sung also flashed again following the match against Jordan, sealing the victory.

As captain Son Heung-min won two consecutive A matches in October without him, Hong Myung-bo strengthened his "monopoly system" with 3 wins and 1 draw and 10 points in the World Cup qualifying round.

[Hong Myung-bo / Coach of the national soccer team: I think it was the most important game of the year. I'm glad I won. I want to congratulate our players who won today.]

Above all, it is encouraging that a healthy generational change began with young blood, starting with Lee Kang-in, who has been reborn as an ace.

[Lee Kang-in / Korean national soccer team striker PSG: I felt a lot that they are good players. Likewise, I think I should try harder to become a player who contributes to the team.

[Oh Hyun-kyu / Korean national soccer team striker, Belgium Genk: I don't think there's always age when I play with the national flag. The best player in Korea plays, and that's why I think I need to be more responsible and do better.

However, the chronic defensive anxiety of dedicating two goals, so-called "Finding Kim Min-jae's partner," remains a challenge.

Hong Myung-bo, who had a clear result in two games in October, which was considered the biggest watershed, will play away matches against Kuwait and Palestine next month.
