South Korea would be aiming to take inspiration from their performance in the last edition of the World Cup as they head to Qatar this time. The top Asian side pulled off one of the biggest upsets in Russia last edition when they beat Germany 2-0 in a group-stage encounter. Their win over the 2014 World Champions helped them finish third in the group and above them in the tournament. Although they had failed to make it to the knockout stages, that win remains one of their most memorable ones in history and this time too, they would be keen to pack a punch in Qatar.
