SBS Cup Quarterfinal Postponed: FC Wonder Woman vs. FC World Class

Match Delayed to Next Week

Fans of Goal Hitters (also known as Shooting Stars) were left disappointed this week as the highly anticipated SBS Cup (GIFA Cup) quarterfinal match between FC Wonder Woman and FC World Class has been postponed. Originally scheduled to air this week, the clash has been pushed to next week, leaving viewers scrambling for updates.

The delay was confirmed via a story on player Mashima's Instagram, one of the few sources to communicate the change. Unfortunately, neither SBS nor the official Goal Hitters social media accounts provided clear updates, leading to confusion among fans, especially those outside South Korea relying on platforms like Viki.

Why the Postponement?

The likely culprit behind the scheduling shake-up is the ongoing KBO baseball playoffs, a major event in South Korea that often dominates TV time slots in late October. With games extending into early November, it's common for regular programming, including popular shows like Goal Hitters, to be preempted. While this may be common knowledge for local viewers, international fans have been left in the dark, highlighting a need for better communication from SBS.

"You would think SBS or Kick a Goal socials would communicate more to avoid all this confusion," one fan remarked, echoing the sentiment of many waiting for the quarterfinal showdown.

What’s Next?

The FC Wonder Woman vs. FC World Class match promises to be a thrilling chapter in the SBS Cup, with both teams bringing fierce competition to the pitch. Fans are eagerly awaiting next week's broadcast, hoping for a preview or highlight package to tide them over. Will FC Wonder Woman stage a revenge arc, or will FC World Class hold their ground? Stay tuned to SBS for the rescheduled airing, and keep an eye on official channels for updates.
