The South Korea national football team will face Mexico in the 2026 FIFA World Cup group stage on June 19th at 10:00 AM KST at the Guadalajara Stadium in Zapopan, Mexico. Former national team defender Park Joo-ho predicted a 3-2 win for South Korea on his YouTube channel 'Captain Park Joo-ho'. He cited Mexico's weak midfield pressure as a key factor in the win. Park Joo-ho said, 'Mexico doesn't pressure well when they have the ball in midfield. They let it loose.' The South Korea national football team won 2-1 against the Czech Republic and is expected to win again against Mexico. Coach Hong Myung-bo maintained a similar lineup to the Czech Republic match, with Son Heung-min at the forefront and Lee Jae-sung and Lee Kang-in supporting on the sides. The midfield will feature the combination of Hwang In-beom and Baek Seung-ho, who were key players in the win against the Czech Republic.
