World Cup 2018: 5 best and worst players as Mexico beat South Korea

#2 Worst - Jang Hyun-Soo

Hernandez leaves Jang sliding across in his wake to double Mexico's lead

The only other defender to not complete a successful tackle was Jang. This was painful to watch from a neutral perspective - not least after it was his handball which gifted Mexico a goal midway through the first-half.

That was his one and only foul during the afternoon, though the most significant in terms of shaping just how the match went from Korea's point of view. They found themselves behind during a crucial spell and struggled to cope as Mexico only improved and looked fairly comfortable while doing so.

Four clearances, two aerial duels won and 84.4% pass accuracy help the centre-back's stats look a little better, though it's clear from this performance that his decision-making leaves a lot to be desired.

Having committed the mistake which led to Mexico's first, he only went and compounded his woes in the second-half. Mexico's counter-attacking speed proved too much to handle but it was his naivety which potentially cost them the match.

Lozano's probing pass found Hernandez advancing into the area, still with a bit of work to do. Jang, instead of staying firm on his feet and jockeying, slid to ground - presumably expecting the West Ham striker to strike first time. Instead, he faked inside and left him sliding in his wake before squeezing past goalkeeper Cho Hyun-Woo. Talk about getting embarrassed.
