South Korea is on the prime position in this match as well as in their group. The Korean side just requires a tie from this match to qualify for the next round i.e. Knockouts. In South Korea vs Gabon, it will be a tough ask for the African soccer debutant team to get rid of experienced Korean side, who has been displaying a great and improved game of soccer from last decade or so.
