Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: South Korea gets underway.
  • 5' - Portugal is taking the lead after the goal scored by Ricardo Horta on 5.
  • 6' - What a strike from Ricardo Horta! The score is 0-2.
  • 11' - Portugal 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.
  • 16' - 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.
  • 21' - It looks like no one’s ball. Portugal is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 26' - 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.
  • 27' - What a strike from Kim Younggwon! The score is 1-2.
  • 28' - What a strike from Kim Younggwon! The score is 2-2.
  • 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' - Lee Kangin is having his name booked by the referee on 36.
  • 41' - South Korea started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 41.
  • 46' - Seung-Gyu Kim has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 51' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 56' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 61' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Kyung-Won Kwon, as he is very good at scoring at Education City Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 65' - Another substitution for Portugal to replace Matheus Nunes by Joao Palhinha on 65 minute.
  • 66' - The whistle greets Cristiano Ronaldo as he departs to be replaced by Andre Silva.
  • 71' - South Korea looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Kim Younggwon scoring 2 goals.
  • 76' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering South Korea that had 8 games and scored 10 goals.
  • 81' - The whistle greets Lee Kangin as he departs to be replaced by Joon-Ho Son.
  • 82' - Another change for Portugal made on 82 minute. Vitor Ferreira leaves to be changed by William Carvalho.
  • 87' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 90' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Hwang Heechan on 90.
