"What's wrong with the grass here?"

The Jordanian reporters' bone-in words only made him laugh awkwardly.

Recently, the "Nondureung Lawn" issue, which has heated up the Korean soccer community, has been on the cutting board every day and seems to have become a basic value. While the South Korean national team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, played a home game against Jordan at Suwon World Cup Stadium at 8 p.m. on the 25th in Group B of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA North-China World Cup, the atmosphere at the site was dominated by public opinion that "the condition of the grass is better than that of Goyang Stadium."

However, Jordanian reporters had a different idea during their visit to Korea. During the Jordanian official training session, a local reporter gave a thumbs-up, saying, "Jordan's team is in the best condition. Isn't Korea in a bit of a difficult situation?" While exchanging small talks with a light smile, the Jordanian reporter closely watched the grass and said, "It seems like the grass is not in a good condition. Is it raining?"

He could only give an answer, "One of the best stadiums in Korea."
Located in Amman, Jordan, Amman International Stadium is used as Jordan's home stadium and is incredibly small and compact. As you can see the ground clearly from a cafe across the street from the stadium, it is not important whether or not the training is open to the public. However, the grass condition is excellent enough to remind you of a carpet.

Paddy fields have become a familiar keyword for domestic soccer players, but not for them. At the moment, I felt ashamed, but I didn't give any further explanation. Although numerous stakeholders are putting their heads together to solve the grass problem, it is true that there are clear limitations due to the nature of 온라인카지노 Korea, where the facility corporation, which has no choice but to invest taxes, manages the stadium.

During the A-match period in March alone, a whopping four players shook their heads against grass conditions at domestic stadiums. "I don't think I can say that I was in good condition on grass conditions," Oman coach Rashid Jaber said after the match against Oman (1-1) on Sunday (Daejeon Hana Citizen). "I felt sorry that I wasn't in a situation where I was injured," Oman coach Rashid Jaber said, "It was different from the grass we experienced. My cheeks were splattered." "To be honest, I was very afraid of getting hurt," said Seol Young-woo (FK Tsurvena Zvezda).

Lee Jae-sung (1. FSV Mainz 05) attended a press conference on the 24th, a day before the match against Jordan, and made a flurry of remarks with determination. "It's a pity that we have to talk about grass a day before the match. You can say it's an excuse, but honestly, it's interfering with our performance and players getting stressed out," Lee said, sighing, "I can see Seongnam FC training ground from a hotel, and it's so complicated that K-League players are training in such a place."
