South Korea head coach Paulo Bento says he's satisfied with the performance of his players despite their 3-2 defeat to Ghana 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 am proud of the players. Even if it had been a draw, it would have been a relatively fair result."
"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.
