South Korea vs Portugal Live Score: Korea keep themselves alive after the first half

 

45 Minutes

 

The Korean Republic side have done well as they have kept themselves alive in the game and not given away any lead whatsoever to the Portugal side which got ahead very early in the game courtesy of a Ricardo Horta goal. The Koreans started building the pressure ever since and got a goal through their defender Kim Young on a corner in the 26th minute. 

 

Now, in the second half, they would have to come out all guns blazing and try and get a win as their competitors Urguwy are 2-0 ahead against Ghana in the first half.

Ghana vs Uruguay Live Score: Arrascaeta scores again, this time on a volley

 

32 Minutes

 

You got to be kidding me. No goals in the first two games and then suddenly Arrascaeta gets into the act and in a matter of six minutes, scores twice to put Uruguay 2-0 up in this must-win game. This goal was a better-looking one than the last one. It was taken on the volley by Arrascaeta as Suarez, who did not have the place to shoot, aired it and it fell in a perfect position for the number 10 to hit on the volley and past the Ghana goalkeeper.

Ghana vs Uruguay Live Score: Rochet saves a Penalty, keeps Uruguay in the game

 

20 Minutes

 

In the first place, it should have never been a penalty. It was a regulation save which was messed up by the Uruguayan goalkeeper who tried to a coverup by diving in front of a Ghana striker. The referee didn’t call it a foul, but the Ghana team asked for VAR assistance and it was taken by the on-field referee and that guided him to point towards the penalty spot. 

 

Andre Ayew was given the duty to put the ball in the net from the penalty spot, but it was a very poor kick, right in the centre and Richet didn't really have to do much to save the ball.
