S.Korea just beat Lesotho 2-0 and currently leads the tournament.

And Namibia beat South Africa 1-0.

This is a U-23 tournament and is being used by the countries to look at their U-23 players.

Interesting to see that they are playing this tournament in Soweto, which if I recall is an under developed area of South Africa.

I remember watching a program on TV about Soweto and how the people of that area loved to play sports.

And South Africa and Lesotho draw 1-1.

Actually, S. Korea did beat Namibia 2-0. The game against Lesotho was before that where S.Korea won with the same score of 2-0.

Still to come: South Africa v. South Korea

S.Korea will win the tournament even if this ends with a draw. This is S.Korea's Olympic National team, by the way. They've been on a five game winning streak so far including the three games they played against South African pro teams right before the tournament.

"Soweto - Thousands of soccer fans were astounded when a defeated South Korean national under-23 team was crowned champions of the Four Nations Cup at Orlando Stadium on Saturday."
