About this match
In 2018, South Korea eliminated Germany and qualified Mexico, sparking celebrations in the streets and beer sent to the Korean embassy. In 1998, Mexico defeated the Koreans 3–1. Now the two national teams meet again at the Azteca, putting to the test whether gratitude can survive 90 minutes of competition.
