Match Commentary

-
South Korea will have to play better in future and they look way short of the team that reached the semi-final four years ago...but they are in a great position to progress from the group phase.
-
Togo started the game well and it was the sending off that changed the match. Korea's change of tactics and numerical advantage proved too much for the Africans.
90'
Tchangai gets booked and from the freekick - in the same position from where Chun-Soo scored - Korea play the ball short and keep possesion. The crowd boo but the final whistle blows and they have won!
