Chun Soo Lee- South Korea’s bad boy and hero
Ahn Jung Hwan was South Korea’s hero once again. Putting South Korea ahead with an absolute blast giving Togo’s goalie Kossi Agassa no chance, after Chun Soo Lee equalized for South Korea. Togo played with 10 men for most of the second half when Yaovi Abalo, their captain was sent off for fouling Ahn Jung Hwan from a goal scoring opportunity just outside the penalty box.
Ahn Jung Hwan became South Korea’s most celebrated soccer player in 2002 when South Korea beat Italy in the quarterfinals when he scored a header minutes into extra time.
One comment on “Chun Soo Lee, Ahn Jung Hwan come through for South Korea”
Togo really fell apart after that red card, they had a few good chances up front but not enough numbers to over come Korea’s defence.
such a silly foul to have commited as well. good game, neither team looks particularly strong, but it was an intense, enjoyable game to watch. “Mad props” to both teams (as the kids say)
