With the loss in their first game against Australia, the prospects for advancing to the quarterfinals have become bleak. They now need to secure at least three more wins to hope for a top-two finish in the group. South Korea, placed in a group with Australia, Japan, Czech Republic, and China, faces the pressure of having to win against Japan at 7 PM on the 10th.
