[뉴스쏙:속]Korea, beat Ghana tonight and go to the round of 16?

1. Should Heung-Min Son write ‘most goals’ history? Threshold today in the Round of 16 against Ghana

The second leg of the group stage against Ghana, which will be the turning point for advancing to the round of 16 of the Qatar World Cup, will be held at 10:00pm on the 28th. With Hwang Hee-chan’s absence confirmed, it is uncertain whether ‘Iron Pillar’ Kim Min-jae will play due to a calf muscle injury. There are people who say we can score if we aim at the back space of Ghana, who have a relatively weak defensive organisation. Digging into the opponent’s space is Son Heung-min’s best weapon. Attention is focused on whether Son Heung-min, who is recording 3 goals in the World Cup, will score in 3 consecutive tournaments and the most goals in the World Cup in the history of a Korean player. Ghana national team coach Otto Addo and Son Heung-min were teachers of Hamburg youth team in Germany. Ado’s coach, who met again after 9 years, said he hoped Son Heung-min would do well except for today’s game.

Ghana is ranked 61st in the FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) rankings, the lowest among the finalists, but has a power that cannot be ignored, centered on Thomas Partey, who plays for Arsenal in the English Premier League (EPL). Meanwhile, the referee for today’s match is EPL referee Anthony Taylor. Referee Taylor, who red-carded Son Heung-min in a league game in 2019, is notorious for over-heating the game with the spectators’ style of rough physical contests between the players.

On the afternoon of the 27th (local time), the day before the Qatar 2022 World Cup match against Ghana, Son Heung-min of the national football team trains while shouting “fight” at the Al Egla training ground in Doha, Qatar on the afternoon of the 27th (local time), encouraging the players. random news

3. Today’s first discussion… Executing the start up order

Yesterday, the fourth day of the cargo union strike, the Public Transport Workers Union announced that the cargo union headquarters had launched a general strike in about 60 centers across the country, including major ports, industrial complexes, cement transport sites, and oil, steel, and car companies. According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, as a result of this strike, the volume of container import and export in 12 major ports across the country has dropped significantly to 17% compared to normal. As the cement shipment rate dropped to less than 10% of normal, shipments from major shipping centers in the metropolitan area were completely stopped. The ready-mix concrete industry is predicting that the suspension of production will spread across the country starting tomorrow, and there are concerns that construction sites in progress will also come to a halt. As tankers also join the strike, there are concerns that there could be disruption to gas station fuel supply.

In order to overcome this situation, the government and the cargo union will have their first meeting this afternoon at the Sejong Government Complex. However, although the Cargo Solidarity insists on the permanent safe price system, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has a different position with a three-year extension, so it does not seem easy to reach an agreement. The government is expected to issue an order to resume operations sooner or later if the meeting does not produce any results. The order to start work is a government that forces some workers to return to work, and if they refuse to the end, they can face criminal punishment. There is also a basis for issuing a business commencement order in the Trucking Business Act. However, so far no orders have been issued regarding the carriage of cargo. This is because it can only lead to extreme conflict, and especially this time, in a situation where the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions has announced a series of strikes, labor strikes can spread in all directions. Attention is focused on the atmosphere of the first discussions today whether the government will take a strict prescription.

4. Helicopter crash kills all 5 people… 2 people not identified

Yesterday (27th) in Yangyang, Gangwon-do, a helicopter crashed while flying in a forest fire, killing all five people on board, including the pilot. At around 10:50am yesterday, a forest firefighting helicopter crashed near Myeongju Temple in Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do. There were three more people on board than the two originally reported, but their bodies have not yet been identified. The bodies of two of the dead have been so badly mutilated that even the exact gender has not yet been confirmed.

The helicopter that crashed was made in 1975, so 47 years ago, but it was identified as an old model that did not have a flight recorder which serves as a black box. Following yesterday, the government intends to continue identification at the site today as well as identify two unidentified dead through DNA.

5. A month after the Halloween disaster… Democratic Party “Sell Lee Sang-min by today”

The ruling and opposition parties have agreed to a government investigation into the Halloween disaster, but they are fighting strongly over the issue of the future of Public Administration and Security Minister Lee Sang-min. The Democratic Party of Korea once again urged President Yoon Seok-yeol to make a decision, saying the dismissal of Public Administration and Security Minister Lee Sang-min was the start of a proper government investigation. It was announced that if Minister Lee is not dismissed by today (28th), a month since the disaster occurred, a motion to dismiss or impeachment will follow. It appears that the Democratic Party’s request to dismiss Minister Lee immediately after the agreement on the government’s investigation is based on the intention to preempt the initiative by putting pressure on the passport before the government’s investigation begins in earnest. Following the arrest of Lee Jae-myung’s assistants, it is interpreted that it includes a calculation to respond to the public opinion battle of judicial risk with the possibility of summoning Lee to the prosecution.

The president’s office and the power of the people refuted that it is a clear political insult to sack the minister even before the government’s investigation begins, and that it goes against political morality. The President’s office said there is no change in its current position that the responsible person will be held accountable after the results of the investigative agency’s investigation or state affairs investigation, and it appears that there is a direct collision between the office of the President President and the huge opposition. inevitable for a considerable period of time.
