Group A’s second game, the tournament’s first midnight kickoff, and it’s the Czechs in front — captain Ladislav Krejčí rising highest to head home on 59’. South Korea are pouring forward (well over 60% possession and the better chances) but can’t find the finish yet. Game on.

South Korea 1–1 Czechia

Live — second half (~67’) · Group A · Estadio Akron, Guadalajara

Goals: Ladislav Krejčí 59’ (header) · Hwang In-beom 67’

South Korea have levelled it — 1–1! The breakthrough came on 67’: Hwang In-beom ghosted in behind the Czech line, took a touch and slotted it home. Czechia had led through captain Ladislav Krejčí, who rose to head in off a throw-in (59’) — but the Taegeuk Warriors have been relentless, bossing possession (63%) with five shots on target to Czechia’s one. All to play for.
