South Korea football coach Paulo Bento and his players faced criticism at home after drawing with Palestine in the World Cup qualifiers on Tuesday. The team’s performance was described as ‘disgraceful’ and ’embarrassing’ by some media and fans. Coach Hong Myung-bo, who led South Korea to the 2014 World Cup, took responsibility for the result and urged supporters to remain calm. The team is currently third in Group H, three points behind leaders Iran.
