With Sonny back, S. Korea chasing 4th consecutive win in World Cup qualification

South Korea will be looking to continue their perfect start to 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification when they host Lebanon on Tuesday.

The match will be played at the Goyang Stadium and will be the fourth match of the final round of qualification for both teams. South Korea currently top Group A with nine points from three matches, while Lebanon are bottom with zero points from three matches.

South Korea will be boosted by the return of Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min, who missed the last two matches due to injury. Son is South Korea's all-time leading goalscorer and his return will be a major boost to the team's hopes of qualifying for the World Cup.

South Korea chasing 4th straight win

South Korea will be looking to make it four wins from four in World Cup qualification when they host Lebanon on Tuesday. The Taeguk Warriors have been in impressive form in the third round of qualification, winning their first three matches without conceding a goal.

A win over Lebanon would see South Korea move to 12 points from four matches, and would put them in a strong position to qualify for the World Cup. However, Lebanon will be no pushovers, and will be looking to cause an upset in Goyang.

Lebanon will be without their star player, Hassan Maatouk, who is suspended for the match. However, they will still have a number of dangerous players, including Mohamad Haidar and Hilal El-Helwe.
