Argentina vs South Korea World Cup 2010 Live Streaming, Score Prediction
Match: Argentina vs South Korea
Match Fact : Thursday June 17, 2010 Kick off: 12:30 Group Stage: Group B Soccer City Stadium
Argentina have won both of their encounters against South Korea, including a 3-1 victory during the 1986 World Cup first round. In that game, current Argentina boss Diego Maradona provided the assist for all three goals by the South Americans, despite being fouled 11 times – only Ariel Ortega (12 times against Japan in 1998) has ever been fouled more times in a single World Cup match.
The South Koreans have yet to beat a team from the American continent in the World Cup (three defeats and two draws). South Korea have never qualified to the knockout stage of a World Cup played abroad. South Korea’s clean sheet in their opening game against Greece was their first in their last six World Cup finals games.
Only two of South Korea’s 24 World Cup finals goals have come before the 25th minute, with the second coming against Greece in the opening game (seventh minute). Argentina are now unbeaten in their last seven finals games, winning four and drawing three (not including results after penalty shoot-outs).
Three of Argentina’s last four goals in World Cup finals have come from corners. Only current manager Diego Maradona (nine) has delivered more assists than Juan Sebastian Veron (five) for Argentina in the World Cup since 1966.
Our Prediction : Argentina vs South Korea >> 2 – 0
