Venezuela’s national team secured a valuable draw on Friday at Ulsan Munsu Stadium versus South Korea, coached by Spanish Robert Moreno, with Atlético’s Kang-In Lee starting, playing the full 90 minutes and receiving a yellow card.
The side led by Oswaldo Vizcarrondo gave Uruguay’s 1‑4 thrashing on Monday a run for its money, showing the same class that shone at the World Cup. In my view, Venezuela’s resilience will pay off.
Despite dominating possession, a VAR call erased a goal by Jesús Ramírez for off‑side, and a South Korean strike was also cancelled after a foul by Hyeon‑Gyu Oh on keeper José Contreras.
The Venezuelan squad now faces Jordan on Tuesday in the next friendly, while Kang‑In Lee’s South Korea meets Kazakhstan. Can they turn this momentum into a win next week?
