South Korea vs Brazil

Thank you here for your audience for another World Cup preparatory match. Stay tuned here on VAVEL for the repercussions of this game. Have a nice day and see ...

South Korea comes into the match on the back of two wins and one loss in recent matches. The first was against Paraguay, on February 1st, with goals from Raphinha, Coutinho, Antony, and Rodrygo. The second was over Chile, on March 24, with Neymar, Vinícius Júnior, Coutinho, and Richarlison building the score. Paulo Bento, Korea's coach, commented on the opportunity to face Brazil and praised the Seleção Canarinho: "It's a great chance to play against the best team in the world. Finally, now away from home, on March 29, the victim of the turn was Bolivia, who suffered at the hands of Paquetá, Richarlison (2) and Bruno Guimarães. Closing out the group were Iraq with nine points, and Syria and Lebanon with six points. In the rebound Son was without angle and even so tried the shot on goal, but sent into the hands of Weverton. And after all this the referee went to the VAR for a possible penalty for Brazil! Korea is a well-integrated team because Paulo Bento has been there since the World Cup. The other result we had (against Korea in 2019) of 3-0 was dilated, maybe a result less than 3-0 would have been fairer". Argentina is second with 29 points, as well as Uruguay with 28 points and Ecuador with 26. Today's match will be at Seoul's Sang-am Stadium, or more famous as Seoul World Cup Stadium. The stadium was opened on November 10, 2001 and has a capacity of 66,704 fans. A corner kick from the left, taken by Neymar, was headed by Thiago Silva and the ball exploded off the crossbar!

Gabriel Jesus came off the bench to round off the scoring as Brazil beat South Korea 5-1 in an international friendly.

Everton forward Richarlison had opened the scoring inside seven minutes, but the hosts drew level after the half hour through Hwang Ui-Jo. But further strikes from fellow substitute Phillipe Coutinho and Jesus helped guide Tite’s side to a convincing victory. The forward was introduced in the 78th minute, replacing Leeds’ Raphinha with the scoreline in Seoul at 3-1.

But further strikes from fellow substitute Phillipe Coutinho and Jesus helped guide Tite's side to a convincing victory. football.london understands that the Manchester City striker and Roma frontman Tammy Abraham are among the shortlisted profiles who could arrive at Emirates Stadium. Jesus, in particular, remains open to leaving the current Premier League champions, with his representative reportedly holding talks with Edu throughout the past few months. Arsenal first made enquiries for Jesus in November, with Edu maintaining a close relationship with the player's agent and the City forward himself.

SEOUL (AP) — A pair of Neymar penalties helped Brazil start its World Cup preparations with a comprehensive 5-1 win over South Korea in an international ...

“We made too many defensive mistakes against a strong team and we need to improve,” South Korea coach Paulo Bento said. In the final seconds, another substitute, Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus, completed a perfect evening for the South Americans after running through the backline. Brazil was back ahead three minutes before the break after a penalty was given following a foul on Alex Sandro. Neymar sent Kim Seung-gyu the wrong way to roll the ball into the net. It struggled to get joint EPL golden boot winner Son into the game but was back on level terms on the half-hour with a well-worked goal. The lively Juventus wing back was again brought down in the area and Neymar once more waited for the goalkeeper to commit himself before calmly stroking the ball home for his 73rd goal for Brazil. That’s just four fewer than Pele, Brazil’s all-time leading goalscorer. Richarlison silenced the 66,000 fans who filled Seoul World Cup Stadium to capacity after just seven minutes with an opportunistic strike.

Richarlison (7') · Neymar (42' PEN, 57' PEN) · Philippe Coutinho (80') · Gabriel Jesus (90'+3').

It [affection] was not just for me, but for our entire team. It was phenomenal. Neymar netted from the spot to put his side back in front three minutes before half-time and he was on hand with another penalty in the 57th minute before late goals from Philippe Coutinho and Gabriel Jesus put the seal on a comprehensive win.
