World Cup 2022: I am dissatisfied with the result - South Korea coach Paulo Bento on Ghana defeat

Published on: 29 November 2022

South Korea coach Paulo Bento is not happy his side lost 3-2 to Ghana in their second group game at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Black Stars took a 2-0 lead courtesy of goals from Mohammed Salisu and Kudus but two stunning headers in three minutes from Cho Gue-sung levelled the game after 61 minutes.

Kudus added a final twist when he thumped in a third for Ghana to break South Korea's hearts.

"I am dissatisfied with the result, but satisfied with the content," said Paulo Bento who was sent off after the game by Anthony Taylor for arguing with the English referee for not allowing a corner to be taken despite the 10 minutes having elapsed.

"I will prepare to produce the best results."

The defeat leaves South Korea 3rd in Group H and must beat Portugal to stand any chance of progressing to the round of 16.

Coach Paulo Bento will miss the Portugal clash on Friday due to the red card he received.
