Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Education City Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - Ricardo Horta puts Portugal on the lead.
  • 6' - Goal! Ricardo Horta scores his 102 goal in 358 matches.
  • 11' - It looks surprising South Korea does not make any changes. Vitor Ferreira has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 16' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Portugal that had 120 games and scored 36 goals.
  • 21' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with South Korea winning 100% of all matches.
  • 26' - Portugal started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 26.
  • 27' - Goal! Kim Younggwon scores his 6 goal in 8 matches.
  • 28' - Kim Younggwon with the second goal in the match!
  • 33' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. South Korea needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 36' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Lee Kangin on 36.
  • 41' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ruben Neves suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 46 minutes.
  • 51' - Joao Cancelo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 39 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 56' - South Korea seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 61' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Lee Kangin, as he is very good at scoring at Education City Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 65' - Joao Palhinha is replacing Matheus Nunes for the Portugal side.
  • 66' - Another substitution for Portugal to replace Cristiano Ronaldo by Andre Silva on 66 minute.
  • 71' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kim Moonhwan made 8 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 76' - South Korea looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Kim Younggwon scoring 2 goals.
  • 81' - Another substitution for South Korea to replace Lee Kangin by Joon-Ho Son on 81 minute.
  • 82' - Time for substitution for Portugal. Vitor Ferreira is replaced by William Carvalho.
  • 87' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 90' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Hwang Heechan.
  • 90' - The supporters are chanting for Yu-min Cho. He replaces Gue-Sung Cho on 90 minute.
  • Another three points for South Korea.
