The South American side has several fantastic players in Valverde, Bentancur and others coupled with the experience of Suarez, Godin and Cavani to ensure they made their way to the Finals.
La Celeste needs to start off well given the other teams of the group not being pushovers and how closely competitive the World Cup has been till date.
On the other hand, South Korea consistently emerge as one of the top Asian sides in the World Cup. This time as well they secured a 2nd place finish in the Asian Qualifiers to reach Qatar.
Led by Heung Min Son, Korea has pushed above their weight and been in the thick of things for a while.
Now with the world at their feet and with the stage set, it’s time for the Taegeuk Warriors to step it up a notch.
