Meanwhile, Park Seung-ho’s equalizer secured Korea’s early advance to the Round of 16. The U-20 World Cup is divided into 6 groups, from Group A to Group F. The 1st and 2nd places in each group automatically advance to the round of 16, and only the top 4 teams among the 6 teams in each group advance to the 3rd place. Korea beat France 2-1 in Group F and drew 2-2 with Honduras to rank second with 4 points.

Kim Eun-joong has 4 points, which is higher than Slovakia U-20 (3 points), third in Group B, and Japan U-20 (3 points), 3rd in Group C, so she can enter the top 4 teams. Japan U-20’s come-from-behind defeat to Israel U-20 was decisive.
