Iraq vs. Korea Republic Live Stream, Score, Preview, Predictions: U-20 World Cup 2013 Quarterfinals

Iraq will look to continue its Cinderella story when it takes on Korea Republic in the 2013 U-20 World Cup quarterfinals.

Few expected the Iraqis to get out of Group E with such competition as England, Egypt, and Chile. However, the team proved its worth during its first match when made a late two-goal comeback against England to earn a draw. After that game, the Middle Eastern side made another comeback against Egypt to earn a 2-1 victory. In its final group game against Chile, the team made no mistakes early on and ran out to a 1-0 lead en route to a 2-1 victory and the top spot in Group E. In the round of 16 the team continued its impressive play with a 1-0 win in extra time against Paraguay.

Now the team will take on a Korean side that barely got past Colombia. The Asian team owned a 1-0 lead throughout that game but blew it in the 90^th minute. After a 30 minute session of extra time, Korea and Colombia battled in 18 penalty kicks. Korea eventually won when Colombia's Deivy Balanta fired his spot kick over the net.

Predictions: Most would give Korea Republic the benefit of the doubt after toppling Colombia. However, Iraq has been extremely good in this tournament and remains one of the few without a loss in the entire tournament. Look for the Middle Eastern side to pull off a 1-0 victory.

Start Time: 11 a.m. EST
TV: The game will not be televised in the USA.
