South Korea to play Brazil in pre-World Cup friendly
South Korea will host top-ranked Brazil in a friendly ahead of this year's World Cup, the nation's football association said on Wednesday. The national team, captained by Tottenham Hotspur's Son Heung-min, will take on Brazil on June 2 in Seoul before squaring off against Chile and Paraguay on June 6 and 10. The series of planned matches with South American teams will give South Korea a "good opportunity to assess their objective strength and weakness", the Korea Football Association said in a statement.
