Cho Young-jeung

Cho Young-jeung (born 18 August 1954) is a South Korean former footballer who played as a defender. He was a notable centre-back of the 1970s and 1980s in South Korea and participated in the 1986 FIFA World Cup. He didn't have rapid pace and great stamina, but was noted for his predictive ability, team play and positional sense. He also had a burly physique and so was strong on tussle and tackle.[3]
