 Lee Tae-seok could be the key that opens the door to the 2024 Paris Olympics finals. Attention is being paid to whether Lee Tae-seok, who recorded consecutive assists with his left foot in the first and second group matches, can continue the trend in the Korea-Japan match.  The Korea U-23 national soccer team (Olympic national team), led by coach Hwang Seon-hong, will participate in the 2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U-23 Asian Cup and 2024 Paris Olympics held at Jassim bin Hamad Stadium in Doha, Qatar, at 10 p.m. on the 22nd (Korean time).

PSG will play the second leg of the 2023-24 UCL quarterfinals against FC Barcelona (Spain) at 4 a.m. on the 17th (Korean time) at the Estadi Olympic Luiz Kompanis in Barcelona, ​​Spain.

Gwangju FC challenges for 3 consecutive home wins in the first ‘Moonlight Derby’ of the season

 K-League 1 Gwangju FC aims for their third consecutive home win in the first ‘Moonlight Derby’ of the season. Gwangju will play Daegu FC and Hana Bank K-League 1 2024 4th round match at Gwangju Soccer Stadium at 4:30 pm on the 31st. Gwangju FC, which is in second place with 2 wins, 1 loss and 6 points, aims to return to first place by winning the 'Young and Honam Rival Showdown' against Daegu. Gwangju has not won a single home game against Daegu since March 2017. In 6 matches, they recorded 1 draw and 5 losses. Their overall record is 7 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses, maintaining a tight balance, but they are particularly weak in home games. We are determined to boldly shake off the ‘home game jinx’ in this match. Midfielder Jeong Ho-yeon, who made his national team debut in the away game in Thailand on the 26th, will act as the 'midfield commander' to break down Daegu's dense defense.

The reality of the off-season has been revealed, the possibility of Lee Jeong-hoo and Ohtani joining forces.

 San Diego general manager AJ Preller is famous for making major trades that would surprise the major leagues. He is nicknamed 'Mad Man' for his sometimes unconventional and sometimes incomprehensible trades. Everyone on his roster, with the exception of a few players, will inevitably be faced with the word trade. The same goes for Kim Ha-seong (29, San Diego), who has now become a key player in the team. The possibility of a trade was first discussed in the winter of 2022. General Manager Preller revealed that during the 2022 Winter Meeting, many teams had inquired about the possibility of trading Kim Ha-seong and then-team outfielder Trent Grisham (current New York Yankees). Until then, San Diego had a grand dream of conquering the National League West Division, and although it did not come true, it was the moment when Kim Ha-seong's name was listed on the trade block for the first time. During the 2023 season and even after the season ended, talk of Kim Ha-seong's tr
