South Korea net late to rescue draw with Jordan

Jordan were denied a first ever victory over South Korea when a 91st-minute own goal from Yazan Al-Arab saw their opponents rescue a 2-2 draw in their second Asian Cup Group E game at Al Thumama Stadium on Saturday.

South Korea took the lead when Son Heung-min was brought down in the box by Ihsan Haddad and after a lengthy VAR check, the Tottenham forward kept his focus amid a crescendo of boos to score in the ninth minute.

But, Jordan did not crack and they were rewarded for their constant pressure in the 37th minute when South Korea's Park Yong-Woo headed the ball into his own net from a corner.

Jordan were denied a penalty in first-half added time when Musa Al-Taamari was brought down as he was bearing down on goal, but seconds later Yazan Al-Naimat made it 2-1 when he unleashed a half-volley from outside the box into the bottom corner.

South Korea upped the ante in the second-half but they only found an equaliser in added time when Hwang In-beom's shot was turned into the net by Jordan centre back Al-Arab.

The result leaves both teams on four points from two games, with Jordan occupying top spot ahead of South Korea on goal difference.

Bahrain and Malaysia, who lost their opening games, play the other group encounter later on Saturday.
