Indonesian media pointed out and criticized the attitude of Vietnam national football team coach Park Hang-seo at a press conference.
Vietnam, led by coach Park, drew 0-0 in the 2022 Southeast Asian Football Federation (AFF) Mitsubishi Cup semifinal first round Indonesia expedition held at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta, Indonesia on the 6th (Korean time).
While both teams were tight, the atmosphere at the press conference before the game was also not good. According to Vietnam <Vn Express>, director Park held an 8-minute press conference that day. He left the press conference immediately after answering only one question.
Indonesia’s <Tempo> criticized coach Park, saying, “I made a noise at the press conference. He stopped the press conference after saying little about the preparation of the Vietnamese team.”
Director Park seemed offended when he saw the Korean reporter at the press conference. The media said, “I saw two Korean reporters in the room for no reason, stopped talking, and asked who they were. I was annoyed to see these reporters wearing clothes with the Indonesian national team logo on them.” It is not known which media the reporters belonged to.
There were also more specific reports. Indonesia’s <Libero> criticized coach Park Hang-seo with an article titled “Director Park Hang-seo acted grumpy and answered only one question during a press conference.”
According to the media, this reaction came because Korean reporters were talking too loudly when Park was listening to other reporters’ questions. 메이저놀이터
The AFF coordinator in charge of the press conference asked if there were any additional questions, and when no one raised their hand, Director Park left. In general, if there are no additional questions, the press conference is not held anymore, so the criticism of the Indonesian media sometimes feels strange at first glance.
Vietnam’s <Vn Express> explained, “The Indonesian media’s criticism aimed at coach Park seems to be intended to inflict psychological damage before the game.”
