The two teams have fought seven times in history, Mexico 3-1, 3-3 and South Korea, scoring 12 goals and losing 8 goals. The two teams have fought one time in the history of the world cup, Mexico defeated South Korea 3-1 in the 1998 France World Cup group match.

Score forecast:
The biggest surprise of the 2018 World Cup is that Germany, the defending champion of the last year, suffered a 0-1 defeat to Mexico. It can be seen that Mexico's strength cannot be underestimated. This time, it's also very easy to believe that South Korea, the relatively weak team in the war, will be defeated by Mexico.
Analysis of South Korea team in 2018 World Cup
Objectively speaking, in Asia, South Korea is proud. South Korea, known as the "Asian tiger", is the most Asian team to reach the World Cup finals so far. Including the 2014 World Cup, South Korea has reached the World Cup finals nine times!
In the world cup of Japan and South Korea in 2002, South Korea made Spain and Italy one after another, and then made it into the top four. Then fans all over the world scoffed at it! But objectively, the strength of South Korea in that world cup was really good.
South Korea is in Group f this world cup. Let's look at other members of group F: Germany, Mexico, Sweden.
I don't know if the South Korean team is shocked to see this group. Compared with neighboring Japan, South Korea has to look up to the sky and sigh.
However, South Korea has always paid special attention to the overall fighting spirit and the whole field pressing tactical characteristics. As long as this spirit is there, it may reap unexpected results.
Analysis of Mexico in 2018 World Cup
As a traditional strong team in central and North America, Mexico has been playing a very important role in the world cup. In the land that made the oldest civilization in the American continent, the descendants of Indians brought the nature of bravery and war to the Greenfield. Like the cactus in the desert, it's ugly but tough. In the case of physical fitness and technical and tactical differences with the strong teams in Europe and the United States, Mexico has its own style of football to take the lead in the world football.
Under the leadership of Osorio, the Mexican team has a smooth turnover of talents and a reasonable staff structure. There are not only young talents for the first time, but also veteran players for four consecutive times. There are still some hidden dangers in the defensive end, and the control of the midfield is a little inadequate.
But the attacking end is flexible. Once the play is smooth, Mexico's attack can be overwhelming. In Russia on the other side of the ocean this summer, Mexicans who have fallen to the top 16 in six consecutive competitions will have an impact on their fate.
Germany fought against South Korea. In view of the fact that Germany may have advanced after the two games, and South Korea may also be out early, both sides of the game are not interested in it, especially Germany, because even if they lose the game, they can still advance to the top 16 in the group, after all, there are too many net goals than Sweden and Mexico.
[Mexico 1-0, South Korea win]
