South Korea v Ghana World Cup game ends in shocking scenes as furious manager storms pitch to confront referee amid red card

A thrilling World Cup game between South Korea and Ghana ended in remarkable scenes as the South Korean coach was red carded by the referee after angrily confronting him at the full-time whistle.

In a breathless encounter at the Education Stadium in Al-Rayyan, Ghana raced to a 2-0 lead in the first half through goals from Mohammed Salisu and Mohammed Kudus, before South Korea staged a second-half fightback with Cho Gue-sung netting two goals in the space of three minutes to level the scores.

Kudus restored the Black Stars' lead with 20 minutes left, but the South Koreans refused to throw in the towel and desperately looked for the equaliser that would keep them in the fight to qualify for the knockout rounds.
