Match Analysis

South Korea's quality, led by Son Heung-min, should be the difference. South Africa will compete but lack the cutting edge. This could determine who qualifies behind Mexico.

Team Form

South Korea: Son Heung-min makes them dangerous. Consistent WC qualifiers. South Africa: Physical but limited in attack.

Head-to-Head

South Korea beat South Africa 1-0 in 2014 friendly. Limited competitive meetings.

Key Insights

Son's individual brilliance could be the difference in a tight match. South Africa will make it difficult but South Korea have more quality.
