Tottenham star Son Heung-min was unable to get on the scoresheet for South Korea as they fell to a 3-2 defeat against Ghana this afternoon. It leaves the Taegeuk Warriors third in their group with just a single point as they prepare to take on Portugal on Friday, December 2.
South Korea started the match well as they piled the pressure on the Black Stars but found themselves 2-0 down heading at half-time. Gue-sung Jo scored twice to equalise for South Korea in the second half before Mohammed Kudos grabbed the winner in the 68th minute.
Son was able to create more chances and get himself into better positions inside the penalty box compared to the 0-0 draw against Uruguay, but was unable to find a late equaliser. After 10 minutes of injury time had been played, referee Anthony Taylor blew the full-time whistle as South Korea had just earned themselves a corner leading to manager Paulo Bento and his players arguing with the officials.
