By way of updating the Koreans' record, they just came off a thrashing in the Australian Cup: Australia 2-0 Korea Sweden 8-0 Korea Mexico 8-0 Korea They also exhibited their trademark lack of discipline and lack of respect for the officials in that tournament. Don't be surprised if they continue their antics in North America.
