South Korea Vs Greece

Attention is being paid to how South Korea and Greece will compete in Saturday’s match as they are both strong set play, or set piece, teams.

The Greek team’s set play is considered quite challenging, due to their defenders' tall stature. Team Korea must closely watch corner kicks and free kicks by the Greek captain, Giorgos Karagounis.

Set pieces are also an important attack option for South Korea's national team. Park Joo-young, Yeom Ki-hun and Gi Seong-yong are considered key players in the soccer strategy.

Saturday’s match is scheduled to take place at 1:30 p.m., which could be a burden for players who are more familiar with night matches. Wind blowing into the stadium from the Indian Ocean could also be a variable in Saturday’s game.
