Koreans eyeing progress

SOUTH KOREA coach Huh Jung-moo has told his players not to be afraid of Argentina as they attempt to prolong their stay at the World Cup.

The Koreans sit proudly at the top of Group B, ahead of the two-time World Cup winners on goal difference, following Saturday’s 2-0 victory over Greece.

They will face a much tougher test, however, at Soccer City in Johannesburg on Thursday when they go head-to-head with Diego Maradona’s men knowing the winners are destined to head the group and make it through to the last 16, something the Asian side has only achieved once and never on foreign soil.
