[HIGHLIGHTS] Klinsmann dismissed as national coach: An old DFB habit also led to his departure

Klinsmann dismissed as national coach: An old DFB habit also led to his departure. The move is the KFA's response to the team's unexpected elimination in the semi-finals of the Asian Cup.

Klinsmann, 59, only accepted the role as coach of the 2002 World Cup fourth-place team twelve months ago. The 1990 World Cup winner failed to win any of his first five games with South Korea. His short-term goal was to win the Asian Championship.
