05:00 PM IST: Welcome to the live blog of the Uruguay vs South Korea, FIFA World Cup 2022 group H match in Qatar.

The Group H of the 2022 FIFA World Cup will kick-off with Uruguay facing South Korea. Uruguay secured the third position in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers. According to FIFA’s official records, Uruguay have won the World Cup two times in their history. La Celeste has had many great players such as Luis Suarez, Diego Forlan, Cavani and many others.

South Korea, on the other hand, have qualified for every edition of the World Cup since 1986. Their best run ever was in 2002 when they finished fourth.

Players To Watch

Federico Valverde

The Real Madrid player is in the form of his life. Fede has shown that he is not only a versatile player but also great in almost every position. Valverde has even played for Real Madrid as a winger. He has scored eight goals and has four assists in 20 games for Real Madrid across all competitions.

These are great stats because he plays as a central midfielder, a right winger and also sometimes as a right midfielder. Uruguay can benefit from Valverde’s versatility and make the best use of it against South Korea.

Son Heung-Min

Not a surprising name to watch here. Son Heung-Min is arguably one of the most underrated footballers. The Tottenham Hotspurs winger often goes under the radar. Son’s best moment with South Korea as of now is his goal against Germany that knocked the then-defending champions out of the 2018 World Cup. As of the current season, Son is underperforming for Tottenham Hotspurs.

After amassing 34 goal contributions in 45 matches last season. Son Heung min has managed to score only five goals for Tottenham Hotspurs in the Premier League and the Champions League. Perhaps Son can burst onto the scene when his country needs him the most.
