South Korea welcome Brazil to the iconic Seoul World Cup Stadium for an international friendly match that, while coinciding with ongoing FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers, has no qualification pressure, so to speak. Watch the South Korea vs Brazil football match live.
Both teams have already booked their tickets to the FIFA World Cup 2026. So, this clash offers both sides a chance to work on their respective squads and fine-tune for the global showpiece next year, well in advance.
Hong Myung-bo's Taegeuk Warriors enter the match with confidence. In their September friendlies, they beat the United States 2-0, then played out a 2-2 draw with Mexico.
South Korea's World Cup qualifying campaign was emphatic, too. They topped Group B undefeated and confirmed an early ticket to the Americas. But in Brazil, South Korea will have an elite opponent.
Carlo Ancelotti's Selecao, despite finishing fifth in CONMEBOL qualifying, secured direct entry to the World Cup. However, their form has been patchy, and they lost to Bolivia 0-1 in their previous outing.
South Korea captain Son Heung-min is all set to earn his 137th international cap today. The former Tottenham Hotspur star, now with Los Angeles FC, will become the most-capped player in South Korea's men's football history.
South Korea Vs Brazil Head-To-Head Record
This marks the ninth meeting between the two teams. Brazil lead the head-to-head record 7-1, with Korea's lone win coming in an international friendly on March 28, 1999, 1-0, thanks to a 90th-minute Kim Do-Hoon goal at Olympic Stadium, Seoul.
But since that match, Brazil have won five on the trot, including a 5-1 thrashing in their FIFA World Cup 2022 round of 16 match at Stadium 974, Doha.
That match witnessed Neymar becoming the third player to score at three World Cup Finals for Brazil after Pele and Ronaldo.
