SK/Czechia Game

Ok, just a casual fan, and mainly watch highlights, so my expectations are probably skewed, but the play in this game seemed rather sloppy, the passing not first-rate.

Is that fair, or unrealistic ? Looking forward to the Canada v Bosnia & US v Paraguay games today...

Maybe a little loose, first game nerves, heat, travel, etc... I thought South Korea were quite good. Their second goal had Barcelona vibes, 20+ passes leading to a beauty of a goal. South Korea are better than any of the teams playing today.

It was riveting for 90 minutes. South Korea answered quickly both times Chechia put the ball in the back of the net.

South Korea's first goal was a thing of beauty, too. Hwang In-beom deked the keeper and two defenders and soft-touched the ball into the net.
