South Korea vs Uruguay Live
Two-time champions Uruguay open their 2022 World Cup campaign against South Korea at Education City Stadium on Thursday.
La Celeste has been in excellent form since Diego Alonso took over from Oscar Tabarez at the end of last year.
Tabarez’s sacking as Uruguay’s coach after 15 years in the job threw their preparation into a tailspin, despite their positive results on the field.
Alonso came in and transformed a team that was on the ground after some dismal results in the South American Qualifiers, but still didn’t know their best formation or their best system.
Tabarez was sacked as coach with qualification in doubt after four successive defeats, including a humiliating 4-1 defeat in Brazil and a 3-0 away defeat in notoriously difficult Bolivia.
On November 24, Uruguay and South Korea will kick off Group H matches in the 2022 World Cup when they meet in their opening match.
Predictions for the match between Korea and Uruguay
In the group stage of the World Cup, the two teams competed constantly. The current squad of players in Uruguay shows a lot of promise. Despite being two-time champions, Uruguay has not qualified for a tournament tournament since their title-winning campaign at the 1950 World Cup in Brazil.
At the 2002 World Cup, South Korea achieved their best ever result on home soil by reaching the semi-finals. In their last four visits, they have only qualified once to the knockout stage, losing to Uruguay in the last 16 in 2010. Portugal and Ghana are the other opponents in Group H.
Uruguay national team news
After surgery for an adductor muscle injury, Ronald Arago has recently made a full recovery. He will likely not be absent from the inaugural competition. In their last seven World Cup matches, Uruguay have won just once in their opening matches, lost three and settled for a draw in the other three. In their last five World Cup matches, they have won four. They hope the trend continues in this competition.
South Korea
More than any other Asian country, South Korea is participating in the FIFA World Cup for the 11th time. They’ve only had one win in their past six World Cup matches, and they’re hoping to change that. Son Heung-Min earlier suffered a facial injury that could have prevented him from competing in the tournament. But fortunately for South Korea, he is still in the team.
The main players
From the Uruguay’s point of view, Diego Alonso and Ronald Araujo would be players to watch out for. So will Darwin Nunez and Luis Suarez. South Korea will rely heavily on strikers Son Heungmin and Hwang Uiju. Central defender Kim Ming’ai will have plenty to defend against Uruguay’s attack.
The date of the match between South Korea and Uruguay
The Uruguay-South Korea match will take place on November 24 at 2:00 pm (Qatar time) at the Education City Stadium in Doha.
Captain Son has been joined by nine from the 2018 Asian Games squad in Qatar, including fellow Olympiacos players Hwang In-beom and Hwang Ui-ju. This is a team whose bonds extend far beyond any degree.
For Uruguay, any result other than a win would be a disappointment. But South Korea, who knocked out defending champions Germany from the 2010 World Cup finals, showed they could cause an upset. Saudi Arabia’s Asian team has already stunned the South American giants at this World Cup. Will there be a repeat of Thursday’s game?
