South Korea conceded a goal from Neymar's free kick in the 44th minute of the first half and another goal from Oscar in the 4th minute of the second half. The team tried to turn the game around by substituting Ji Dong-won with Lee Keun-ho in the 6th minute of the second half, and later brought in Son Heung-min and Koo Yo-han, but they struggled to break through Brazil's central defense, led by Luis and Dante.
