Argentina vs South Korea at the World Cup

Argentina became world champions for the first time in 1978, on home soil, as La Albiceleste recorded a 3-1 win over the Netherlands. There were more than 71,000 spectators in attendance for this World Cup Final played at the modern-day Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires.

The Argentinians regained the throne in 1986, largely thanks to the brilliance of Diego Maradona who netted six goals at the tournament and went on to hoist the World Cup Trophy at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

It took another 36 years but Argentina finally sealed World Cup honours again in 2022, this time owing to talisman Lionel Messi who scored seven goals in Qatar, including two versus France in the World Cup Final.

Prior to the 2026 World Cup, the furthest South Korea had advanced at the quadrennial showpiece was in 2002 as co-hosts of the event. The Tigers of Asia remarkably reached the semi-finals having topped their group before overcoming Italy & Spain in the knockouts. South Korea ultimately lost out to Germany at the Seoul World Cup Stadium and then to Turkey in the third place play-off.

Argentina vs South Korea Head-to-Head

The first time these nations clashed at the FIFA World Cup was in 1986, at the group stage, as eventual champions Argentina ran out 3-1 winners versus South Korea.

The teams were grouped together again at the 2010 World Cup. Argentina claimed an emphatic 4-1 victory in this matchup, though the Tigers of Asia still managed to advance to the knockout phase.
