An excited seven minutes gave Korea Republic a 2-1 win over a strong Swiss side.
The first half featured the potent Koreans creating a plethora of opportunities. Scorer Park Chu-Young had a number of chances to give his team the edge, but was constantly stopped by keeper Diego Benaglio.
In the second half, the action got frenzied when Park finally broke through in the 57th minute. He met a Nam Tae-Hee cross with his head to give his team a 1-0 lead. But the lead lasted all of three minutes as Innocent Emeghara split two defenders and met a Ricardo Rodriguez cross with a timely header into the back of the net.
The deadlock seemed primed to continue, but just four minutes later Kim Bo-Kyung deflected a Koo Ja-Choel cross into the net. The remainder of the match saw the sides trading chances, but Korea found a way to hold on and ensure themselves four points.
Korea needs just one point to reach the quarter finals while Switzerland needs a win over Mexico to dream of the knockout stages.
