Yesterday, right around the corner of the day in Korea, there was a World cup match between Germany and Korea. Germany was previously ranked first as a world champion in soccer, which is the reason why a handful of Germans were looking forward to this year’s match, waving cheering sticks in public. Before the match, some Koreans even estimated 7:0:7 for Germany, 0 for Korea.
However, as the match was becoming increasingly intense, Germany did not seem to play to its full capabilities and seemed to miss goals. Meanwhile, Korean players, trusting even the smallest possibility of winning, pushed themselves harder towards the end of the match. At the very end, barely ten minutes before the match ended, Korea put two goals in total- one by Kim Young Gwon and one by Son Hyun-min. After the game, the results stunned the spectators as well as the rest of the world's audience. Especially for Germany, the results were a huge blow, as the results seemed to diminish the spirits among the spectators. However, for countries such as Mexico, the defeat of Germany and the triumph of Korea became their opportunity to have another positive start since they earned a chance to go up to round.
