Preview: South Korea vs. Togo
GAME DETAILS
Korea Republic vs. Togo, Frankfurt, 15:00 CET
THE BIG PICTURE
The most dominant football force in Asia, Korea Republic is looking to follow their 2002 semifinals run with an equally impressive showing in 2006. Togo may be little more than a speed bump on that way as Togo stands in danger of surpassing Zaire as the most futile competitors ever to play in a World Cup. Good thing we love the underdogs here because Togo’s coach quite the squad just a few days ago and turmoil appears to be the Sparrowhawks’ biggest asset.

By BrendanLee | June 13th, 2006 at 1:08 pm Togo will likely be the whipping boys of the whole 2006 world cup…,the Koreans will have themselves to blame if they throw away this life or death match.Or the koreans really does not have what it takes..?

By Ali Siddiqui | June 13th, 2006 at 1:12 pm After tasting the sweet cup of almost winning the World Cup, I think Korea really has to prove themselves this time around after 2002. I’m rooting for them both actually. I want Togo the underdogs to win and propel another African team forward, but also I’d like to see an Asian team moving forward as well.
