Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Uruguay and South Korea has kicked off!
  • 5' Uruguay currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering South Korea that had 11 games and scored 12 goals.
  • 15' Sang-ho Na, a South Korea forward, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 20' South Korea is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 25' With 0 assists to his name this season, Jose Maria Gimenez is clearly more than just a goal scorer for South Korea.
  • 30' It looks like no one’s ball. Uruguay is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 35' South Korea are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 40' The 34-year-old Hwang Uijo has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 45' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 50' The energy levels are beginning to show. Diego Alonso might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 55' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 57' Martin Caceres is having his name booked by the referee on 57.
  • 62' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Uruguay side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 64' A change in the Uruguay ranks — Luis Suarez exits the field as Edinson Cavani enters on 64.
  • 69' Uruguay is showing some good football. However, Uruguay are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 74' Another substitution for South Korea to replace Hwang Uijo by Gue-Sung Cho on 74 minute.
  • 75' A tactical swap from South Korea — Lee Kangin on, Sang-ho Na off on 75 minutes.
  • 79' The Uruguay manager makes a substitution. Matias Vecino departs to be replaced by Nicolas de la Cruz.
  • 84' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Uruguay and South Korea are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 88' Fresh legs for Uruguay! Guillermo Varela comes on to replace Facundo Pellistri.
  • 88' That is a Yellow card for South Korea. Gue-Sung Cho will be fuming at that decision.
  • 89' Gue-Sung Cho has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 89.
  • 90' It’s a booking for South Korea player. Paulo Bento gets a Yellow card.
  • The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from to claim maximum points.
