The South Korea national football team will face referee Facundo Tello in their World Cup match against South Africa. Tello previously refereed Korea's match against Portugal in the 2022 World Cup, which Korea won 2-1 to advance to the round of 16. He is an Argentine referee who has been known to frequently issue cards. In a recent match, he gave 10 players red cards in the final of the Trofeo de Campeones, an Argentine cup competition. The Korean team will play against South Africa on May 25th at 10:00 AM KST at the Monterrey Stadium in Mexico. They must win this match to secure a spot in the round of 16. Tello has been refereeing in the Argentine first division since 2013 and has been an international referee since 2019. He previously refereed a match between Canada and Bosnia and Herzegovina in the World Cup, in which three yellow cards were given to Bosnia and two to Canada. The Korean team will have to play carefully to avoid receiving too many cards from Tello.
