South Korea kicked off their FIFA World Cup 2026 campaign with a thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Czechia in Guadalajara. After falling behind to Ladislav Krejci's header, Hwang In-beom inspired the turnaround by scoring the equaliser and later assisting substitute Oh Hyeon-gyu for the winner. The midfielder became the first South Korean player to register both a goal and an assist in the same World Cup match, helping his side move to second place in Group A behind Mexico.
