Lee Tae-ho (Hangul: 이태호, Hanja: 李泰昊, Korean pronunciation: [i.tʰɛ̝.ɦo]; born January 29, 1961) is a South Korean former footballer who played as a forward.[2] He spent his entire career playing for the Daewoo Royals. In the history of the FIFA World Cup, he was the first player to be blind in one eye.[3]

International career

Before starting his professional career, he was the first South Korean to score at the FIFA World Youth Championship. His goal came against Canada at the 1979 tournament. Afterwards, he was called the "Korean Gerd Müller" for his scoring ability. He contributed to South Korea's gold medal at the 1986 Asian Games. His right eye was injured in 1987, but his blindness wasn't enough to stop his performance. He became the top goalscorer in the 1988 AFC Asian Cup and participated at the 1990 FIFA World Cup.
