South Korea have gone further in the World Cup than ever before on foreign soil;
they can now truly consider themselves among the top football nations. Finishing
number two in Group B was no easy feat and they had to fight passionately every
inch of the way. Their last game in the group was against Nigeria and this was
a thrilling 2-2 battle. Their first game in Group B saw them beat Greece but later
they lost badly to Argentina; final score 4-1. Beating Uruguay won't be
easy but there is no doubting the team's passion.
Uruguay proved victorious in Group A. Their first game in the group saw them hold
France to a goalless draw. Their next match was against the hosts South Africa
and they managed a decisive 3-0 win. The last game for Uruguay in Group A saw
them beat Mexico 1-0. Now they have progressed to next stage there is only one
goal; to win every match. South Korea have proved to be a slippery team to dominate
but Uruguay will want to keep them on the back foot. On Sunday we will see if
they are successful at doing this.
We are now in the final stages of the World Cup and every match from here on in
will have a victor and a loser. Only the best will proceed to the next round and
the very best to the last round. This is going to be a real spirited encounter
between Uruguay and South Korea. Don't forget to join us here on action8cricket.com
