U18 Asian Youth Championship: South Korea defeated Japan and won the 6th championship in team history

Today, South Korea relied on its ace left-hander Ha Xiancheng to start the game and seal the victory with one hit in 7 innings. In the end, South Korea defeated Japan 2-0 and won the 6th U18 Asian Youth Championship in team history.

After today's game, South Korean head coach Zheng Xingzhen said that the national team only spent 11 days training, and the tacit understanding among the players has not been developed well. The three teams of Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea are of equal strength. South Korea just had better luck in winning the championship.

In the U18 World Cup held in Taiwan in 2013, Zheng Haojin came to Taiwan as the head coach of South Korea to compete in a fierce competition, and finally won 5th place. At that time, U18 South Korean players Kim Ha-sung and Park Se-woong later became famous players. Now Zheng Haojin once again coached the South Korean national team and won the U18 Asian Youth Championship. Do you foresee the future of South Korea's golden generation?

Zheng Xingzhenqian said, "Not only South Korea's Ha Xiancheng and Yan Junxiang, but also Taiwan's Liu Renyou and Zhang Yi'an, and Japan's Oda Shoki and Yamada Rintora. These six players are all very good. I believe they will compete again in higher-level international competitions, such as classics and the Olympics. Overall, they will be the golden generation belonging to these three countries."

Looking back on his journey, Zheng Haozhen said that although the results 13 years ago are not something he wants to recall, he has continued to coach the team during these 13 years. With these accumulated experiences and the unsatisfactory parts before, he has learned lessons and learned, so that he can achieve good results today 13 years later.
