A smile is a tactic (Yeongjongdo = Yonhap News) Reporter Seo Dae-yeon = Coach Jurgen Klinsmann of the national soccer team, which finished the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup, smiles brightly as he returns home via Incheon International Airport Passenger Terminal 1 on the afternoon of the 8th. 2024.2.8 dwise@yna.co.kr/2024-02-08 22:24:49/
7 wins in 7 games. Marques Lopez (Spain), the coach who led Qatar to victory in the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup, has signed a new contract. This is the complete opposite of coach Jurgen Klinsmann (Germany), who was sacked after failing in the Asia Cup.
The Qatar Football Association (QFA) said through its official channel on the 23rd (Korea time), “We have signed a renewal contract with Coach Lopes until 2026.” Coach Lopes’ next assignment is Kuwait in March and 2026 FIFA North and Central America “It’s an Asian regional qualifier for the World Cup,” he said.
Coach Lopes took charge of the Qatar national football team in December last year. Carlos Queiroz (Portugal), who led Qatar, resigned from the baton and took charge of the team a month before the opening of the Asian Cup.
Qatar under coach Lopez did not falter. They progressed to the knockout stage by winning all three games in the group stage, defeating Palestine, Uzbekistan, Iran, and Jordan to win their second consecutive Asian Cup title.

He won the championship trophy two months after taking up his post. Coach Lopes, who gave the championship to Qatar, received a contract renewal as a gift. Fans were pleased to renew coach Lopez’s contract. They showed their enthusiastic support by using various emojis.
This is a move that contrasts with Coach Klinsmann, who ended his trip with Korea badly. Coach Klinsmann, who shouted ‘win the Asia Cup’ after taking charge of the Korean national football team in March last year, failed to keep his word. Klinsmann was eliminated in the semi-finals after showing a poor performance, which eventually led to the dismissal of Klinsmann’s coach.
Coach Klinsmann’s leadership was also ‘bad’. In an Asian Cup retrospective, they made the worst move to date, citing the battle between Son Heung-min (Tottenham) and Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) as the reason for their elimination from the tournament.
