Pakistan and South Korea clashes in first Semi final of Asia on 30 August 2013, Pakistan was top in their group and Korea finished second in their group.
Pakistan need to win Asia cup in order to qualify for the World Cup. They have done very well so far in the event. They beat Japan by 7-0, Malaysia by 4-1 and Chinese Taipei by 13-0
Korea on the other hand has already qualify for the world cup but will be under some pressure because they lost to India in their last match by 2-0
Pakistan favorite for this as they remain unbeaten side and conceded only one goal in the event against Malaysia. Pakistan need to work on their penalty corners, couldn't able to convert their chance against Malaysia as well as Chinese Taipei. As mentioned their Goal Keeper, Salman Akber, performed really well in the event conceded only one goal.
Korea needs to work on their defense as they concede cheap goal against India early in the game, costing them the match, due to defensive lack. They also need to works on their drags.
Overall a good contest expected between the two sides. I will give 60-40 to Pakistan and can expect the old India - Pakistan final
The match will start at 4:35 PM PST
