Jong Il-Gwan came up with the first goal after just 20 minutes.

North Korea could not imagined a better start since Pak Kwang-Ryong doubled the advantage after four minutes. This provided North Korea with a huge advantage going into the break and they managed to prevent any kind of a comeback from the away team.

This happens to be the first win for North Korea in four competitive matches. It also comes at a crucial time for manager Jorn Andersen, who will be leaving his role as the national team manager. He has been in charge of the team since 2016.

Park Ji-Sung urges fans to get behind South Korea

Manchester United legend Park Ji-Sung has urged South Korean supporters to get behind their team prior to their vital World Cup qualifier in Seoul against ‘European Iran’.


South Korean head coach Shin Tae-Yong will have the services of Son Heung-Min back in his squad after he recovered from a broken wrist sustained in the previous round of fixtures. The K-League games for the weekend of Aug. 27 and 28 have been called off to provide Shin with additional time to work with his players.

Iran have already sealed their spot in next year’s World Cup as they sit seven points clear in Group A, but South Korea’s grip on the second automatic qualification position is still weak with Uzbekistan right on their tail. A victory at the national stadium will enable Korea qualify for the World Cup for the ninth successive time, should Uzbekistan, a point behind them, lose to China. Otherwise, the Far East national will travel to Uzbekistan for the final group game knowing that they will need to produce a positive result to qualify.

Park, who made 100 appearances for the national side, believes that the players will be under huge pressure to perform with Iran having not lost a single game in the qualifying group, he said: “In this situation, the players will feel heavy pressure. But if they’re national team players, they need to overcome the pressure and show their abilities. I hope fans can cheer for our national team, and give them support at least in those two matches. Iran is in Asia, but the players’ physiques are more like Europeans. They play rough and powerful football, so that’s why opponents have a hard time.”

A sellout is expected for the crunch qualifier on August 31, and South Korea will hope to start the game in quick fashion in order to avoid the blues which have seen them lose three of the last four qualifiers.
