South Korea were never supposed to be counting goal differences, checking other results, or praying for favours.
This is a squad packed with Premier League stars, Bundesliga talent, and one of Asia's greatest ever footballers. Yet instead of imposing themselves on the tournament, they've become reactive, predictable, and painfully short of ideas.
When a team with this much quality loses its identity, the questions stop being about the players and start being about the man on the touchline.
Is this simply a bad tournament, or is South Korea repeating the same mistakes that haunted them in 2014?

I think Senegal just gave us the game of the tournament so far, shame their journey comes to an end here. They gave it their all but couldn't get past Morocco.
Adji was superb. Trรจs superb.
There is nothing about Malawi's performance that suggests they're WAFCON debutants. They play with a swagger that's an absolute joy to watch.
And Temwa Chawinga's control and pass for that assist... my goodness. What a beauty #WAFCON2026
like wow imagine you take your country to their first ever wafcon with your sister and you both score in your debut match to win the game against the defending champs
