the golden eaglet have really done well by beating Argentina to qualify for the knockout stage and were so lucky to meet new Zealand, well i guess it was the day of the eaglets cos they are better and stronger than them but, i think the eaglets can only become better and smarter by playing a more better and smarter opponents. so i think playing the koreans will really prove if they will take the day and i bellieve they can do so. i wish the eaglets all the best.
