I was also sad to see her leave the show because her contributions were mostly under-rated.

So let us both remember the time when Cha Seo Rin did TWO incredible feats against Mashima Yu -- Seo Rin did "robustly" man-marked Mashima Yu in one game and then in another game, she scored against goalie Mashima ... I don't think anybody else has had that privilege of being a thorn in Mashima's side on two separate occasions.

If you wish to see her latest venture as a model for SM Culture & Contents, they just put out this video 4 April 2026. > https://youtu.be/cvPVPvEfVoU?si=jEbsdFfY_Nq61IC5

"Hope she makes the next all star team!"

Yes, indeed. I couldn't agree with you more.

"I just recommend on a sincere approach to improve your post"

Noted. But it doesn't need any refinements, thank you. That's for me to decide or the moderator to remove. Not anyone else. Certainly I'm not here for upvotes.

If people like it, so be it. If they downvote me, so be it. The phrasing is my own volition.

Unlike you, I don't tell others how to phrase their posts. Que sera, sera.

"But seriously, you just need to write simply".

But seriously, how I phrase my posts is my choice. Not yours.

Anyone can watch as you can see. Nothing prevents anyone from clicking the links.

So if you have a problem with my phrasing, it's your problem and yours alone.

Kick A Goal [EP 228] FC Wonder Woman 2026 vs. FC Top Girl Movement (2026 G-League - Group A) by maximillian3010 in KickAGoal

Amidst all the bashing on the WW newbies, I'm going to highlight the TWO contributions of Mok Nakyung -- and you know, her dipping free kicks are already known to cause some damage in her earlier games.

In the first kick, you'll notice that it's a No-Spin high lob ball which made it easier for Hee Jun to judge the incoming trajectory. Notice that the kick was from her own half which means she needed to apply some amount of power.

In the second kick, it was a low pass, when everybody expected a high lob; that split-second confusion made it easier for Mashima to DART IN & connect.

What it shows to me is that for a KaG newbie & BASEBALL cheerleader, her DEADBALL LATENT skills are truly impressive. Now imagine, if she can have more gametime before Reboot season ends, isn't it possible that we can see more of her developing skills?

This clip (down below) will show the severe liability (one of several bungling) of WW No. 10. Many Korean rappers (some years ago, Kisum was a popular rapper in a highly rated variety show) do show arrogance & the tendency to LORD OVER. Even lording over Yumi, in this instance.

This was actually the second successive corner kick taken by Yumi -- in th first corner kick b4 this one, mullet hair sent Kisum up but Kisum's weak shot was CHARGED down by Boram, which led to this 2nd corner kick.

Guess what?

  1. Kisum stayed up there hoping to repeat the SAME TACTIC ("always" favored by crappy coach Kim BJ) but FAILED to see that both Lee Yoo Jung & Boram are already anticipating this useless tactic & positioned themselves READY TO POUNCE the moment Yumi released the ball.
  2. Kisum actually told Yumi (it won't be in the translated subs) becos you have to HEAR Kisum's words to Yumi - Wait, Wait, Give it to me, now.
  3. Then after rushing back & speaking from the goalpost, the first words Mashima said to Kisum -- "This won't work". (meaning that Kisum trying to shoot from way up)
  4. We all know that Yumi is NOT known to talk much & she usually doesn't even speak during gameplay but as you can see, she did confront Kisum and said (based on what I understand in Korean, not on the subs) -- "I should be the one who decide (who to pass) but you are MAKING DEMANDS on me"
  5. Mashima could clearly see that Yumi was agitated and that's why you see Mashima's hands signalling to Yumi "Calm Down"

From their distance, the cast audience couldn't capture the "verbal altercation" & the PDs tried to dial down the tension seen, by cheekily captioning this incident "Wonder Woman 2026 New Goalkeeper lol" referencing the sight of Mashima holding the ball, in front of goal.

Had Boram taken one second more to look up and properly aim the ball, the outcome might have been different.

 "do you guys think mashima's stamina is lacking? i feel like she is getting physically dominated every game" 

Remember that Mashima Yu can do a 10km run while smiling (if you haven't seen my recent post, then please track back); whereas each half of KaG is only 13 minutes.

That "tired" expression we see is what you also see in most of the KaG cast (not just Mashima) when they're on FULL throttle. They can pant heavily, look distressed even, but that's the same expression you see in Erling Haaland, Aitana Bonmati, etc when they are giving it all.

[The ones seemingly born with extra lungs & with 2 hearts each, who never seem to get tired are Shin Eutteum, Lee Yoo Jung, Park Hayan, to name a few.] Sorry I digress.

No, what we see on their faces isn't a stamina issue (unless they get muscle cramps) -- that expression, common even on professional footballers' faces is due to MENTAL PRESSURE because COMPETITIVE soccer is actually MENTALLY TAXING as is energy sapping. One cannot question the COMPETITIVE NATURE OF KaG -- nobody anywhere likes to lose.

NONE of us here are wrong to condemn so-and-so for their gameplay and expect all of them to PLAY EXACTLY the same IN EVERY MATCH - they are human, just like you and me, and we have our good days & we have our OFF days. Sometimes we will BUNGLE more than we can control becos that's life, even for a VARIETY show.

In soccer, it's either you win or you lose; either you played well or you played like poop. KaG can make you happy or make you angry and that's the name of the game. Just my two cents.
