The South Korea national football team is aiming for victory against the Czech Republic in their first match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This match will take place at Guadalajara Stadium in Guadalajara, Mexico, at 11:00 a.m. today. Managed by Hong Myung-bo, the Korean squad will feature an attacking trio of Son Heung-min, Lee Jae-sung, and Lee Kang-in. Son, competing in his fourth World Cup, could set the record for the most goals scored by a South Korean in World Cup history if he scores today. Lee Jae-sung and Lee Kang-in are expected to support Son in the attack. In midfield, Hwang In-beom and Paik Seung-ho will anchor the team. Manager Hong is set to deploy the three-back defensive formation that has been refined since last year. Lee Tae-seok and Seol Young-woo will take on the left and right wing-back roles, while the three-back defensive line will consist of Lee Ki-hyuk, Kim Min-jae, and Lee Han-beom. Kim Seung-gyu will start in goal.
