Brazil will hope to regain their step when they take on South Korea in the World Cup 2022 on Monday.

The Brazilians are clear favourites to progress here but nothing is for certain at this World Cup with upsets piling on throughout the tournament.

Cameroon’s victory over Brazil is just one of many shocks so far, and the South Americans will hope to massively raise their game to avoid another unexpected defeat here.

South Korea simply being present in the knockout rounds is a surprise to many. They defeated Portugal to break Uruguayan hearts and send Luis Suarez et al home.

The Koreans are the lowest-ranked side in the FIFA World Rankings left in the competition at No.28, but will aim to embody the spirit of 2002 that saw them claw through to the semi-finals as the co-host nation.
