In the 18th minute, some excellent passing inside the circle saw an Umar Bhutta attempt saved superbly by the goalkeeper but Bhutta availed himself of the rebound in the flash of an eye. Captain Rizwan Senior created moves. He hit the third goal from the top of the D. In the fourth quarter, South Korea were able to score their only goal.
