Olympic soccer, which was forgotten due to South Korea's elimination, opens tomorrow night

The men's soccer group league match will begin at 10 p.m. on Monday (Korea time). Groups B and C will start earlier, and groups A and D will also have their first matches every two hours. In Group B, Argentina vs. Morocco, and Iraq and Ukraine will be held with a time difference. In Group C, Uzbekistan vs. Spain, Egypt vs. Dominican Republic will be played. In Group A, Guinea and New Zealand will be followed by a match between host France and the United States. In Group D, Japan vs. Paraguay, followed by Mali vs. Israel.

The members are quite flamboyant. Despite the opening in the same year as Euro 2024, the host country of France has raked in as many glamorous members as possible and is challenging to win the title. Wild card striker duo Alexandre Lacazette and Jean-Philippe Mateta, as well as world-renowned midfielders Michael Olise, Desiree Doue and Enzo Mayo, are included. The only weakness is Thierry Henry's leadership.

Spain, which is often controversial because it can recruit players from its own teams with the will of the Korea Football Association, has refrained from recruiting key A team players. It only recruited two key players, Alex Baena and Fermin López, who were not key players at the Euros, and refrained from recruiting them compared to four years ago. Among them are Eric Garcia and Pau Kubarthy.

Argentina has selected Julián Álvarez, the main striker of the A-team that plays for Manchester City, and Nicolas Otamendi, its defender, and Geronimo Ruli, as its wild card. The key to this year's event is harmony with resources under the age of 23, including Thiago Almada.

Not only the favorite countries but also various other national teams that advanced to the finals have named the best members. The countries that selected the star players of the A-team as wild cards stand out. Morocco has European stars such as Ashraf Hakimi, Egypt and Elneni, and Uzbekistan's Eldor Shomurodov as focal points for the team.

Guinea, which eliminated Indonesia led by coach Shin Tae-yong in the last intercontinental playoff heading to the Olympics, also made its members look spectacular once it made it to the finals. With wild cards, the team convened its star players Nabi Keita and Amadu Diawara to pair them with promising players including Elijah Moriba.

With Korea eliminated from the preliminary round for the first time in 40 years, Asia's major players are Japan, Uzbekistan, and Iraq. Japan, which should be the strongest among these players, failed to recruit European stars such as Takefusa Kubo, failing to recruit the legendary players. Japan has completely given up on selecting the wild card players.
