South Korea vs Colombia Live Football Score 24/03/2022

Friday’s friendly match between South Korea and Colombia will take place at the Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium. After participating in the FIFA World Cup in Qatar last year, the home team will be back in action this weekend. They made it to the last 16 but lost 4-1 to a powerful Brazil. After the Tigers of Asia were eliminated from the World Cup, Paulo Bento resigned as manager and was succeeded by Jürgen Klinsmann, a former manager for Germany. In contrast, Colombia’s run of consecutive appearances on the global stage came to an end when it failed to qualify for the World Cup the year before. Reinaldo Rueda was fired as head coach after they failed to qualify for the World Cup. Nestor Lorenzo took over as his replacement and became the seventh Argentine coach of La Tricolor.

Because he has only made one appearance for the team thus far, Celtic striker Oh Hyeon-gyu, who was given a call-up for the international break, will bring something new to the team. One part of the South Korean group that is probably not going to change is the always present Child Heung-min, who will be supposed to include vigorously during Klinsmann’s time. Jhon Duran is a thrilling possibility for Colombia and he has had the option to grandstand looks at his quality since joining Aston Estate, and a well disposed could be a decent opportunity to give him more minutes.

Alvaro Montero, on the other side of the field, is likely to keep his spot in goal because of the team’s strong defensive performances lately.The home side are set to make their return to action this weekend after participating in the FIFA World Cup in Qatar last year, where they made it to the last 16 before losing 4-1 to a rampant Brazil. Paulo Bento left his post as manager after the Tigers of Asia’s World Cup exit and has now been replaced by former Germany boss Jürgen Klinsmann.

Colombia, meanwhile, failed to qualify for the World Cup last year, ending a run of back-to-back appearances on the global stage. Their World Cup qualification disappointment prompted the exit of head coach Reinaldo Rueda, with Nestor Lorenzo coming in as his replacement to become the seventh Argentine to coach La Tricolor. The visitors have enjoyed a solid start to life under Lorenzo, picking up three wins and a draw in their four games under the 57-year-old. They will be hopeful of a result here.

South Korea have won just one of their last four games across all competitions after picking up five wins from their previous seven outings. They have won their last four home games and will be looking to extend that streak on Friday. Colombia are undefeated in their last seven games, picking up six wins and a draw. They are unbeaten in their last three away matches but may have to settle for a draw here. Following their 2022 World Cup campaign South Korea will be back in action on Friday when they face Colombia in an international friendly.

The visitors are undefeated in their previous three matches, while South Korea are looking to immediately get back to winning ways. The German coach will be hoping to start with a positive result, while the team itself will be keen to impress, making this an important game.South Korea were impressive during the recent World Cup, picking up four points during the group stage following a draw against Uruguay and a shock victory over Portugal. While their run in the tournament came to an end during a forgettable 4-1 loss against Brazil in the round of 16, the squad should have taken plenty of confidence from the performances.

That is something they will be keen to showcase in the first match since that point, which should make South Korea a genuine threat within this fixture. However, the visitors are currently enjoying a three-match undefeated streak heading into Friday’s game, which is a run they want to extend. Colombia’s national team are notorious for their hard-working attitude on the pitch, and that is clear from their recent defensive performances. The Los Cafeteros have been able to keep a trio of consecutive clean sheets heading into this game, and that side of their game is going to be needed against strong offensive opponents. Colombia’s most recent match saw them play out a goalless draw against USA, and while it continued their recent undefeated run, more attacking quality will be needed this time out.

With Colombia not being part of the World Cup, the team has had a longer break than their opponents, but that should only make them keener to get onto the pitch to get back on track. Celtic’s Oh Hyeon-gyu received a call-up for this international break, and the striker will offer something fresh to the team as he has only made one appearance for the team so far. One aspect of the South Korean team that is unlikely to change is the ever-present Son Heung-min, who will be expected to feature heavily during Klinsmann’s era. Jhon Duran is an exciting prospect for Colombia and he has been able to showcase glimpses of his quality since joining Aston Villa, and a friendly could be a good chance to give him more minutes. Meanwhile, at the other end of the field Alvaro Montero is likely to retain his place in goal due to the strong defensive performances of the team lately.

Seung-gyu; Moon-hwan, Kyung-won, Young-gwon, Jin-su; In-beom, Woo-young; Hee-chan, Kang-in, Heung-min; Gue-sung
