Summary
Jo Gyu-sung participated only sparingly in team training following his call-up at Korea Football Park in Cheonan. On the 22nd, he completed only cycling and stretching during the public session, while the 23rd saw him restricted to indoor work. He was subsequently omitted from the Ecuador squad and released ahead of the Uruguay fixture.
Moreno explained after the Ecuador match that key overseas players were excluded to prevent muscle fatigue. Jo's case warranted a recovery period, prompting his return to 미트윌란.
