在前两场比赛中，中国队分别战胜了吉尔吉斯斯坦队和菲律宾队，顺利拿下小组赛出线资格。球迷们对国足在前两场比赛中展现出来的状态表示满意，对这场中国队同韩国队的小组赛头名之争充满了期待。但不可否认的是，前两个对手实力相对较弱，中国队可以控制场上的局势，但本场比赛一上来，韩国队就给中国队的防守制造了很大的压力，要不是守门员颜骏凌的出色发挥，这场比赛的分差还会更大。
China defeated by South Korea 0-2 in Asian Cup Group C match
ABU DHABI - South Korea finished top of group C of 2019 Asian Cup by defeating China 2-0 to make it three victories from three and leave China in second place here on Wednesday.
This is the fourth encounter between China and South Korea at the Asian Cup. China head coach Marcello Lippi made a number of changes, including resting top-scorer Wu Lei due to shoulder injury while South Korea unexpectedly put Son Heung-min in the starting lineup after the Tottenham Hotspur strike just arrived at the UAE on Monday afternoon.
South Korea started at a fierce pace and almost made a breakthrough as Hwang Ui-Jo forced a double-save out of China's goalkeeper Yan Junling in the 6th minute.
It took Son Heung-min 12 minutes to make his first threat of the game, producing a moment of individual skill to win a penalty, which was converted by Hwang Ui-Jo to a 1-0 lead.
China tried to rally seven minutes later through Jin Jingdao, who shot inside the box but rose above the crossbar. South Korea worked another good chance after 22 minutes when Hwang Ui-Jo's shot beat the goalkeeper but hit the the post.
Kim Min-Jae, who scored the only goal to help South Korea squeeze past Kyrgyzstan, doubled the lead by a powerful header connecting a corner kick from Son Heung-min five minutes after the break.
Kim Moon-Hwan missed the opportunity to hand Sweden a third goal in the 65th minute, and though China tried to respond to back into the match, but their efforts were undermined by a lack of quality in the final pass.
China will take on Group A runners-up Thailand in the knockout stage on January 20.
