Algeria absolutely dominating South Korea. Not for long, South Korea are making a quick come back

Looks like this is going to be a high scoring game

A great first 15 mins of the second half for S Korea but that 4th Algerian goal might burst their bubble.

Sam Matterface: "This result seriously damages the Russians."
No it doesn't. It makes no difference whatsoever. If Russia beat Algeria, they go through. If anything, this result is better for Russia as it pretty much takes South Korea out of the equation.

Now if South Korea can get another, THAT might be damaging to Russia...

South Korea making a quick comeback can they score another 2 to draw level before the end of the match.

I've lost count of the number of foul throws in this game that haven't been spotted by the ref.

Sam Matterface: "Algeria have only ever won one World Cup match."
WRONG. Again. Where do they find these idiots?

Same here, where on earth did they get this bunch of commentators.

Out of all the countries I never thought I see Algeria in the last 16,if they end up in the runners-up position. They probably get thrashed though.

1st round, Group H: | 2-4 | |
Pos | Team | Pld | GD | Pts | Q | | 2 | +2 | 6 | 2 | | 2 | +1 | 3 | 3 | | 2 | -1 | 1 | 4 | | 2 | -2 | 1 |
Algeria will be through with victory over Russia. A draw will be enough if South Korea don't beat Belgium by at least 3 goals. Russia must beat Algeria and hope South Korea don't beat Belgium by more goals.

This is the first time an African team has scored 4 goals in a World Cup match.
It is the 11th time South Korea have conceded 3 or more in a World Cup match.

I do wonder how many South African teams could end up in the next round, Ivory Coast have got potential, probably Ghana, Algeria could get there as well.

South African? Ivory Coast should make it. Algeria and Nigeria have a decent chance. Less confident for Ghana, though the next game will make their situation clearer.
