Asian Cup: South Korea held by Jordan

First hitch in the competition for Son Heung-Min’s teammates.

A new big surprise was close in the Asian Cup. The day after Japan’s defeat against Iraq, South Korea was seriously upset by Jordan (2-2) at the Al-Thumama stadium in Doha.

Son Heung-Min had opened the scoring from the penalty spot (9th sp), but Montpellier teammates Moussa Al-Tamari turned things around with a CSC from Yong-Woo Park (37th csc) and with a goal from Yazan Al Naimat ( 45th+6).

Author of a double against Bahrain (3-1), the Parisian Lee Kang-In this time remained silent, but South Korea managed to come back to the score with another CSC, this time from Yazan Abo Al Arab (90th +1 csc).

The two teams are at the top of this group with 4 points and it is Jordan who occupies first place, with a better goal difference (+4 against +2)
