Ecuador vs. South Korea: minute by minute
Ecuador advanced to the round of 16 as second in group B, behind the United States, already in the quarterfinals after beating New Zealand the day before (4-0). The only setback was precisely against the Americans with a goal by Jonathan Gómez at the last minute. Then, three points sweated against Slovakia (2-1) and the biggest win of the tournament so far: the 9-0 win over Fiji.
The sensations could not be better in the South American locker room after that cascade of goals that, in Bravo’s opinion, showed how connected the whole team is, since the last five goals were scored by players who came off the bench.
That meeting also helped Kendry Páez, at 16 years and 22 days, to become the youngest player in history to score a goal in a U-20 World Cup.

The ensemble directed by Kim Eunjung follows the Korean school to the letter: verticality and fast transitions. In this generation there are two footballers who perfectly interpret that philosophy: Bae Junho and Kim Yonghak. South Korea aspires, at least, to repeat the final of Poland 2019, which they lost 3-1 against a Ukrainian team that does not defend the title in Argentina because it did not pass the European qualifiers.
It will not be the first time that both teams meet in a World Cup knockout round. In Poland 2019, the Asians eliminated the South Americans in the semifinals by a score of 1-0. This match, therefore, will be a kind of revenge for the Conmebol team that will seek to reach its first World Cup final of any category.
