‘Zombie football’ keeps Son and South Korea alive at Asian Cup
DOHA: South Korea’s Asian Cup performances have been dubbed “zombie football” but Son Heung-min says the way they are coming back to life shows the team have the spirit to go all the way. The Koreans rose from the dead again in Friday’s 2-1 quarter-final win over Australia, with Son winning a 96th-minute penalty converted by Hwang Hee-chan to send the game into extra time. Skipper Son then sealed victory with a superb free-kick in the 104th minute to send South Korea into the semi-finals against Jordan. Jurgen Klinsmann’s men have won just one game inside 90 minutes in Qatar
