Uruguay – South Korea – Played on 11/24/ 2022

Despite the 0-0 draw, Uruguay and South Korea gave away a great game, exciting and with many dangerous plays; unfortunately, the goal could not arrive.

Uruguay and South Korea drew 0-0 in a match corresponding to the first round of the group stage of sector H. The meeting held at the Education City Stadium marked the beginning of the activity that will close the game between Portugal and Ghana.

The game was extremely fought, but, in turn, extremely entertaining. Uruguay started as a favourite, due to its figures and its history, but South Korea, as it has shown in its last World Cups, was not going to be an easy nut to crack.

Give and take with an Uruguayan team headed by the dynamism of Federico Valverde, the great engine of Diego Alonso ‘s team; while the Asians tried to take possession of the ball and exploit their speed down the wings.

In fact, it was South Korea that started the game the best, however, Uruguay would have the first big danger play. It was Pajarito Valverde, with a shot that went high after a great pass from José María Giménez. Immediately, another charrúa notice, but through Darwin Núñez.

South Korea answered and was strong after a shot from the penalty spot by Ui-jo-Hwang. A serious failure that was the first of the Asians.
