Hong Myung-bo is asked to take responsibility, saying, “Please leave the world of soccer forever… Let’s use it as a tool.” While the Korean national soccer team suffered the shock of being eliminated from the group stage at the North and Central America World Cup, the Red Devils, the national team’s official cheering group, poured out intense criticism toward coach Hong Myung-bo. In a statement released on the 29th, the Red Devils insisted that coach Hong “must leave the soccer world forever” and held him responsible for the management of the national team and the World Cup performance.
