More than results, Korea needs a new start

On Friday, two Asian powerhouses meet in Qatar. Saudi Arabia and South Korea have had some titanic clashes over the years — not least when the Taeguk Warriors lost 2-0 in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, in 2005, which resulted in head coach Jo Bonfrere losing his job despite the team qualifying for the World Cup. Just four years later, Korea went on to win in the Kingdom and qualify for the 2010 tournament in South Africa. Now they meet in Qatar in a friendly game that was supposed to be preparation for January’s Asian Cup. However, due to conflict in the region, it has been postponed from January to the following December. It leaves a big hole in the calendar not just for Korea, but all the national teams that had planned to participate. It also creates uncertainties for interim coach Robert Moreno, whose contract runs through the end of November, — with the possibility of an extension through to the Asian Cup and the possibility of permanent appointment, if all went well. Now there is no tournament to prepare for, removing some of the urgency for the coach and players. Indeed, a number of

Park Ji-sung reunites with Hiddink for 80th birthday, stirring memories of Korea's 2002 World Cup miracle

Former South Korean football star Park Ji-sung has reunited with legendary coach Guus Hiddink to celebrate his 80th birthday, bringing back memories of the country's historic run at the 2002 FIFA World Cup more than two decades ago. On Wednesday, Park's wife, Kim Min-ji, shared a photo on her social media account showing herself, Park and Hiddink smiling together. Alongside the photo, she posted a heartfelt message celebrating the Dutch coach's milestone birthday and reflecting on the lasting impact of the 2002 tournament. "What were you doing during the 2002 World Cup?" Kim wrote, recalling a question that she said could instantly spark an hourlong conversation among Koreans old enough to remember the tournament. She said the question holds a special place in the collective memory of South Koreans, regardless of where or how they first met. According to Kim, even people who rarely talk about themselves cannot resist sharing their personal memories when someone brings up the 2002 World Cup. "If someone mentions the 2002 World Cup at a gathering of Koreans, no matter how unexpected the tim

Antetokounmpo scores 30 and Heat outlast Jazz 115-109

SALT LAKE CITY — Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 30 points, Davion Mitchell added 19 points, and the Miami Heat outlasted the depleted Utah Jazz 115-109 on Tuesday night. The Heat also got 14 from Pelle Larsson but needed late blocks from Klay Thompson and Bam Adebayo to secure their third win in their last four games. Antetokounmpo iced his sprained right wrist in a heavy wrap when he was on the bench but it didn’t seem to bother him on the court. He shot 12 for 21 and grabbed 11 rebounds. He now has 21,836 points and passed Gary Payton to become the 39th leading scorer in NBA history. Despite the Jazz's ninth straight loss, Utah's two teenagers gave the Jazz hope for the future. Rookie Darryn Peterson nearly set his career high (26) for the second game in a row with 25 points and Ace Bailey scored 23. Utah's Isaiah Collier, a notoriously poor shooter who had not made a 3-pointer this season, made four consecutive shots from behind the arc in the fourth quarter to cut Miami's lead to 101-93. Then Svi Mykhailiuk made back-to-back baskets to cut the lead to 112-107 in the final minute but it was too late for the Jazz, who were missing four starters to injury — Lauri Markkanen (wrist), Keyonte George (ankle), Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee), and Jusuf Nurkic (foot). Antetokounmpo's shooting sparked the Heat to a 15-2 run in the third quarter to give the Heat the cushion they needed and send them home with a 3-2 record on their five-game road trip. Larsson hit a 3-pointer with 6:58 left in the second quarter to cap a 13-1 run and make it 49-32 for Miami. The Jazz, who have been hurt by turnovers all season, had 18 to just eight for the Heat.

Cone eyes instant impact from Boatwright in Gilas debut

MANILA, Philippines — Tim Cone welcomes the entry of Bennie Boatwright as he’s set to make his debut as Gilas Pilipinas’ naturalized player in the fifth window of the FIBA World Cup 2027 Asian Qualifiers late this November. “He’s a talented guy; he’s gonna lend a lot of talent to the team and size and perimeter shooting, so he’s a welcome addition,” Cone said Tuesday night, during the post-game chat with sportswriters after Barangay Ginebra ousted San Miguel Beer, 110-94 in their PBA Season 50 Governors’ Cup quarterfinal series to seal the last semifinal spot.  Cone though recognizes the reality that the 6-10 former USC Trojan might struggle initially as he steps up the plate to take the spot of Justin Brownlee. “We’re certainly gonna miss Justin, however, ’cause Justin, he just knows what to do. “And that’s gonna be a difference,” Cone said, noting how much value the well-loved Ginebra resident import and Gilas naturalized player has brought to the teams he has played. “He’s gonna maybe struggle a little bit with what he’s supposed to do and how he’s supposed to do it, but we’re hoping his talent will win out on that,” added Cone, in what he could expect as an initial adjustment on the part of Boatwright. Boatwright joins the team in good playing condition as he’s currently seeing action for the Fujian Sturgeons in the Chinese Basketball Association. The 6-10 former San Miguel reinforcement adds size as he joins Kai Sotto, AJ Edu, Quentin Millora-Brown and Mike Phillips who were all named to the final 12 that will see action against Syria on Nov. 27.
