South Korea have launched their Asian Cup campaign with an ultimately comfortable victory over Bahrain, but it was not without concern for coach Jurgen Klinsmann.
A 51st-minute Bahraini equaliser briefly threatened to derail the German's first match in charge at the finals before two goals by Paris St-Germain's Lee Kang-in steered them to a 3-1 win.
Later Jordan, South Korea's next opponents, moved above them to top group E after a 4-0 win over Malaysia.
