South Korea to the round of 16 – elimination of Uruguay

Another big shock in the water cycle.

South Korea is ready for the round of 16 after a decisive goal against Portugal in stoppage time.

It also means that Uruguay has been eliminated. Off the bench, Luis Suarez and Darwin Nunez sat in tears during the thrilling finale.

After going 1-0 and 2-0 against Ghana in the first half, Uruguay looked to storm the World Cup finals. At the same time, Portugal advanced against South Korea.

However, the latter team scored an equalizing goal in the first half, and Group H was thus decided in dramatic fashion, to say the least.

South Korea’s goal would change the starting situation. And he will come – in the 90th minute.

Tottenham star Heung-min Son played the ball to Hwang Hee-chan who made it 2-1 in the game, sparking wild jubilation among the South Korean players and managers. However, when the match was called off, there were about ten minutes left in the match between Uruguay and Ghana.

A goal for Uruguay would give the nation the second spot, while two goals for Ghana would mean progress for the latter.

In a nerve-wracking ending, Luis Suarez and Darwin Nunez sat in tears on the bench as Uruguay pressed for a decisive goal.

However, the match ended 2-0, thus Uruguay and Ghana were both eliminated – while South Korea finished second in the group thanks to more goals scored.
