FIFA WC 2026: South Korea stage late turnaround to beat Czechia 2–1

Guadalajara (Mexico), June 12 (UNI) South Korea produced a stirring second-half comeback to defeat Czechia 2–1 in an intense World Cup contest at the Estadio Guadalajara, overturning a set-piece deficit with goals from Hwang In-beom and substitute Oh Hyeon-gyu after going behind early in the second period.
The first half ended goalless despite a flurry of chances, most of them involving Son Heung-min, who looked the most threatening player on the pitch.
South Korea dominated phases of possession and created the clearer openings, with Son twice going close—first dragging a shot narrowly wide after a slaloming run, and later firing just over the bar from distance.
