Korea demonstrates its strength with the brilliance of individuals at important moments.

Korea does not have unique attack combinations.

Iran played better at the beginning of the second half.

This goal by Seungwoo brought joy to hundreds of Korean fans – who created a bustling atmosphere on the field.
