Head-to-head

  • The two countries met in a friendly last November. Russia ran out 2-1 winners but neither of their scorers, Fyodor Smolov or Dmitri Tarasov, are part of their World Cup squad. Kim Shin-Wook had earlier given South Korea the lead.

Russia

  • Russia have not progressed out of the group stage of the two previous World Cups they have qualified for since they gained independence from the Soviet Union (1994 and 2002).
  • Three of the five goals conceded by Russia in qualifying came after the 90th minute mark.
  • Fabio Capello has lost just twice in 20 matches as Russia manager, both 1-0, to Portugal and to Northern Ireland. He has a win percentage of 60%.
  • Russia have only kept one clean sheet in their last six World Cup games, a 2-0 win against Tunisia in June 2002.
  • Alexander Kokorin, aged 23, was the youngest player to score 10 or more goals in the Russian Premier League in 2013-14.

South Korea

  • This is South Korea’s eighth straight World Cup appearance; only Brazil, Germany, Italy, Argentina and Spain can boast a longer current streak.
  • The Taeguk Warriors have begun each of the last three World Cups with a win: v Poland in 2002, Togo in 2006 and Greece in 2010.
  • Yet South Korea have only won two of their last 10 World Cup games (against Togo in 2006 and Greece in 2010).
  • South Korea have scored the most direct free-kicks (five) in the World Cup since 1990.
  • Kwak Tae-Hwi, at 31, is the only player in the squad aged over 30 (Russia have seven).
