Match Recap

South Korea didn't just beat Ecuador, they buried them, turning a friendly into a one-sided demolition inside twenty second-half minutes. Oh Hyeon-Gyu broke it open in the 54th minute, and four minutes later Son Heung-Min doubled it, a finish that stretches his tally to four goals this season and keeps him inside the top ten scorers anywhere in this batch of Friendlies fixtures, just behind pace-setter M. Osmajić's five. Lee Dong-Gyeong put the finishing touches on the rout in the 86th, capping a 3-0 scoreline that flattered Ecuador not at all. There was no way back once South Korea found their rhythm after the break, and Ecuador never looked like threatening a reply. Three goals, three different scorers, zero response, this was the kind of scoreline that says everything about how the second half went. Watch how Son Heung-Min's strike in the 58th minute sealed it before Ecuador even had time to regroup.
