The local media, which "confused" Kim Min-jae throughout the season, again criticized Kim Min-jae.
German media Bild wrote an article criticizing Kim Min-jae, saying, "Kim Min-jae is the Achilles heel of Bavaria Munich. He shakes at the most important moment." Achilles tendon is an idiom that refers to someone's fatal weaknesses based on the fact that his heel was the only weakness of Achilles, who was almost invincible in Greek mythology.
Kim has not been able to take proper rest this season and has been overworked. Since October last year, he has been suffering from Achilles tendonitis in his left ankle. As local media have already pointed out several times, Kim had to continue playing due to Bayern's situation where he was suffering from tightrope injury in the defense line even when asked to take a break.
Recently, the International Football Association (FIFPRO) named Kim Min-jae as a representative example of a soccer player's physical overload. "Achilles tendonitis is an overloaded injury related to excessive amount of digestion in games," the FIFPRO said. In addition, Kim Min-jae's physical condition was expected to have reached its limit for various reasons, including nearly 55 games for his team and the national team, he will play about 70 games until the 2025 Club World Cup this season, playing two games every week last winter, averaging only 3.7 days, and the distance traveled by 카지노사이트 the national team reaching 74,000 kilometers.
Kim Min-jae also started in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) against Inter Milan. Despite the overlapping bronchitis with Achilles tendinitis, he couldn't rest, and he was in such a bad condition that he was replaced in the 20th minute of the second half. Local media pointed out that Kim Min-jae made a big mistake when allowing Bangjamain Pavard to lose a point in the 17th minute of the second half, which is just a one-sided criticism that covers one individual's disappointment in set-piece defense tactics.
"Bild" gave Kim Min-jae a lower grade than his actual performance throughout this season, but failed with a score of 6 even after the second leg of the quarterfinals with Inter. He also wrote a separate article criticizing him. He also criticized then Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel, citing that he lost a point in the first leg of the UCL semifinal against Real Madrid last season due to a mistake. "Kim Min-jae, dubbed the 'defense monster' in Italy, did not gain consistent persuasion. He made mistakes several times, and most recently, he made mistakes again in a big game against Borussia Dortmund."
He also pointed out the problem that Kim is being overworked. "Kim Min-jae is struggling with constant Achilles tendon issues. He gritted his teeth for months to help the team, and has already appeared in 42 games this season. There was no rest," he said, pointing out that Bayern ignored the warning signs. However, he wanted to emphasize that Kim is not enough of a defender for Bayern ultimately.
Among the expressions of "build," "Kim Min-jae is not jumping as high as he can (Kim cheint manchmal nicht so hoch springen zu können, wie er eigentlich kann) " does not mean that Kim Min-jae's jumping ability has decreased due to injury. This phrase is adapted from the German proverb "A horse should run as high as it can," which was used by Jurgen Klopp after losing 0-2 to Hamburg in the 2013-2014 season at Borussia Dortmund. "A horse should run as high as it can," he said, twisting the German saying, "Ein Pferd muss verdammt noch mal hoch springen, wies kann." In other words, it is more like a mockery of Kim Min-jae's inability to display his skills in big games. It is the worst pun for a player who plays after suffering from an injury.
