Live descriptive stats
Predicted = the pre-match model's expected goals; actual = xG created so far. A calibration read, not a forecast.
Descriptive only — the pre-match probability tile above does not change during the match.
Analysis
How it plays out
Both sides run a counter attacker system, so this becomes a test of who executes the same ideas better on the day. Czech Republic's aggressive press (PPDA 20.4) against South Korea's deeper build-up (PPDA 25.0) creates a clear territory question: can Czech Republic force errors high up, or will South Korea play through the press and find space behind it?
What decides it
Both sides run the same system (counter attacker), so execution quality separates them, not tactical asymmetry. Son Heung-min carries the marginally higher scoring probability (11.9% vs 6.6%).
Off the pitch
No major off-pitch asymmetries. This one is decided by the football.
The angle
Likely the last World Cup for Kim Seung-gyu. Tournament experience at this level is hard to quantify but hard to replace.

È il numero di cui il riepilogo post-partita rende conto. La probabilità di vittoria live nella sezione Live è una stima separata, in differita e descrittiva; non sostituisce la previsione pubblicata.
