AI match recap
This is the hinge game of the group: a tense opener between South Korea's speed and Czechia's size. Korea look slightly better placed to handle the conditions after arriving early in Guadalajara, but Czechia come in with stronger recent momentum and a very clear attacking identity built on crosses, set pieces and Schick's presence. The biggest question is whether Son and Lee Kang-in can pull the Czech shape apart before the match turns into an aerial battle. If it does, the game becomes much more uncomfortable for Korea.
