Uzbekistan receive a 4-0 defeat from South Korea in Brisbane

Hector Cuper’s side conceded 4 goals from South Korea after a goalless draw with Lebanon on Thursday.

South Korea took an early lead through Nam Tae-hee's volley in the ninth minute and doubled the advantage in the 24th minute through Hwang Ui-jo as the East Asians took a 2-0 lead at half-time.

The Taeguk Warriors increased their intensity of play in the second half and claimed their third goal in the 70th minute after Moon Seon-min latched on to a loose ball following a corner which took Uzbekistan goalkeeper Ignatiy Nesterov by surprise.

There was more misery for Uzbekistan as they conceded another when substitute Suk Hyun-jun found the back of the net in the 82nd minute to win the tie 4-0.
