Korea Republic v Togo, 13 June 2006

Kick-Off: 15:00 Local (14:00 BST) Assistant referees: Philip Sharp (England) Glen Turner (England) Fourth official: Jerome Damon (South Africa) Fifth official: Justice Yeboah (Ghana) Man of the Match: Ahn Jung-hwan (South Korea) South Korea took their time to get going before finally overcoming the resistance of 10-man Togo. The one moment of real quality in the first half came when Togo's Mohamed Kader controlled the ball on his thigh and lashed home a fine shot. Kader nearly made it two after the break before Jean-Paul Abalo's second booking saw him sent off. Lee Chun-Soo curled in the resulting free-kick and Ahn Jung-Hwan's deflected strike won the game for South Korea. Sweltering temperatures beneath a closed roof ensured the game got off to a sluggish start, with little real incident at either end in the early stages. The deadlock was broken just past the half hour with the first moment of real quality from either side. This was the first-ever meeting between South Korea and Togo.
