Argentina vs Korea Live Score, Hockey World Cup: Brilliant passage of play

 

South Korea got a penalty corner which they shot at the goalkeeper with the drag-flick. The ball was rebounded and the Koreans shot again. It was saved by the goalie again and the ball went to the Argentine defender who passed it to the lone striker past the half line who was just brilliant with the ball to even pass it in the 23 to his own player who was unable to get a shot through. Brilliant passage of play.
