South Korea Concludes World Cup Qualifiers with Dominant Victory

South Korea closed their 2026 World Cup Asian Qualifiers campaign in style with a 4-0 win over Kuwait at Seoul World Cup Stadium.

Head coach Juan Antonio Pizzi, and his squad made history as the only team to remain undefeated throughout the qualification phase. The Taegeuk Warriors, already confirmed as Group B winners, maintained their intensity despite facing a lower-ranked opponent.

Strong performance without star names

Notably, South Korea secured the comprehensive victory without fielding top players such as Son Heung-min and Hwang Hee-chan. Even in their absence, the hosts delivered a confident performance — showcasing the squad’s depth and tactical discipline.

The result was a statement of intent ahead of their 2026 campaign, where they will compete in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
