Both the nations meet at lunchtime on Monday
Before the tournament, Uruguay and Portugal were the most talked-about teams. However, South Korea and Ghana showed that they are not helpless bystanders in the race for knockout football.
Uruguay and Paulo Bento’s Taeguk Warriors played to a 0-0 draw on Wednesday afternoon. The South Americans were favoured, but the Taeguk Warriors only let them get one shot on goal. Ghana almost got a point against Portugal later that day, but they took the wrong step. But Inaki Williams lost his balance in the last seconds of a 3-2 loss when the goal was right in front of him.

Players to Watch
Andre Ayew
Even though he’s in his 30s, Ayew, one of Ghana’s oldest players, is still plenty speedy and will be bestriding rushing forward from the wing. The weight of expectation for Ghana rests on him because he is one of the key players who can decide the game.
Son Heung-Min
This is not a strange place to keep an eye on that name. It may be argued that Son Heung-Min is one of the most underappreciated footballers today. The winger for Spurs rarely gets any credit for his contributions. Up until this point, Son’s goal against Germany in the 2018 World Cup was South Korea’s crowning achievement. This year, Son has been a disappointment for Tottenham Hotspurs.
