Yes, the Korean national football team won 1 point after a close game against Uruguay.

Bentujo drew 0-0 in the first leg of the group stage against Uruguay.

From the start, Korea actively fought in midfield, blocking the second line of Valverde and Bentancur, which Uruguay is proud of.

Uruguay were shaken by a long kick and then a lateral breakthrough.

In the first half, both teams conceded a clear chance to each other.

In the 34th minute of the first half, Hwang Eui-jo’s shot went over the bar after Kim Mun-hwan’s low cross near the penalty area.

Conversely, Uruguay swallowed regret eight minutes later when Godin’s header hit the post from a corner kick.

The second half was hot too.

In the 11th minute of the second half, Son Heung-min, who was under intense control, was tackled so hard that he tore his socks off Caceres.

To change the atmosphere, in the 28th minute of the second half, Bento put in Cho Kyu-seong, Son Jun-ho, and Lee Kang-in, and a decisive opportunity came again just before the end of the game.

On 44 minutes of the second half, Valverde’s mid-range shot bounced off the post again.

A minute later, Son Heung-min’s mid-range shot missed the goalkeeper’s passing error and missed the goal.

Even in the extra time given 7 minutes, both teams could not break the balance of ‘0’.

Korea, who followed Son Heung-min’s injury fighting spirit and goal luck, played full time.

On the 28th at 10:00 pm, we aim for the first win of the tournament in the second round against Ghana.

So far, it has been reported by the news agency.
