Five minutes before the end of the stalemate at Goyang Stadium, Lee, who has 35 caps and nine goals for his nation, was substituted.

Tests revealed that Lee Kang-in’s injury isn’t as severe as we had anticipated, according to Yonhap’s report on Saturday.

I spoke with him just recently, and I was able to reaffirm his support for the national team.

He is, however, equally significant to his club as his country.

South Korea are in the top four spots in Group B for Asian qualifying, winning four of their seven games and avoiding the 2026 World Cup in North America.

With three games left, they were later pegged back by Oman, and are now three points clear of Jordan and Iraq.

The top two teams advance to the World Cup.
