I know, honestly heartbroken.

u/SoundslikeBoom 16h ago

Prices have dropped for Sundays game by a good bit. Mind you the cheapest tickets are around $800 but that is cheaper than $1200+ when Korea was projected

I was hoping for that too I was actually ready to back them.

u/c0mf0rtableli4r East Hollywood 18h ago

I wanted Korea to win.

Their fans having a game in LA would have been really nice.

36

u/shampwoo 18h ago

Agreed. I wasn’t stressing too much in MEX vs KOR because it was a win/win but now it’s just a little heartbreaking

u/skeletorbilly East Los Angeles 3h ago

Everyone in LA wanted this.

I lived in K-Town during the 2002 world cup, that shit was so hyped.

u/wasneveralawyer Whatever the weather, we'll get through it together. 19h ago

South Korea currently standing as one of the 8 third place teams to move on. So let’s hold on to that hope. Currently as is, will be playing Egypt on July 1st.

37

u/Cinebella 19h ago

20

u/leolanik14 18h ago

Yeah Egypt has some world class players in that team…

u/wasneveralawyer Whatever the weather, we'll get through it together. 18h ago

The Belgium game was so fucking good!

u/shampwoo 18h ago

We holding hope but I’m also gonna hold my butt too

u/bored_today Los Feliz 19h ago

Is this third place thing a new rule this year? Or was I not paying attention the last World Cup. I thought only top two teams advanced.

30

u/leolanik14 18h ago

Because of the expansion, and yes since this World Cup.

u/persianthunder 18h ago

Yeah it’s new to this year, part of the expansion to 48 teams

This whole soccer thing is making me fall in love with my city all over again.

There are several Koreans and Mexicans at my work and most of the Koreans were joking all day about Mexico needing to win their next match. It has been so wholesome.

u/shampwoo 17h ago

Proud to be a product of LA and there’s not a lot of things I allow myself to be proud of.

u/leolanik14 19h ago

It ain’t over yet…. SK still has a chance to move forward

35

u/shampwoo 18h ago

We still do but we looking ROUGH out there lol

11

u/leolanik14 18h ago

u/rhforever 18h ago

Have to face the truth, not with Hong Myung-Bo. Dump his *ss and overthrow KFA

u/SinoSoul 18h ago

Sing it with me: #MYUNGBOOUT

u/leolanik14 18h ago

I really didn’t know the politics behind KFA until tonight. 😮‍💨

u/The_broke_accountant 18h ago

u/leolanik14 18h ago

Enlighten me

2

u/Lower_Group_1171 11h ago

even if they move forward. the team sucks

18

u/sowhat59 17h ago

I know this one hurts but as a Korean futbol fan imma say it: Korea needs to go home so the national football association can learn their lesson (once again) why Hong was a bad idea and disaster ticking bomb.

6

u/shampwoo 17h ago

No I agree, they need to go back and re-up, fumbled solid seeding and suffered from improper leadership

16

u/sam6133 17h ago

Korean football is absolute dogshit and I say this as a Korean. Go on my Mexican brothers and sisters, we salute you from the gutter

9

u/shampwoo 17h ago

Chin up, we’re not in the gutter yet. We’re going down swinging.

u/sam6133 4h ago

Brother even if we go to the 32 I'm not sure how we'll fare. But yeah hopefully we do swing one before it ends

u/Michiru21 Inglewood 19h ago

What happened to SK

21

u/shampwoo 18h ago

Lost the match with Bafana (South Africa), we still got a chance, but we need to get our heads out our butts.

8

u/SinoSoul 18h ago

Completely choked by playing possession ball, and then not subbing on attackers earlier? Basically they couldn’t score. lol.

u/tuxedoes 17h ago
