South Korea play winless Nigeria in their final Group B match today in the knowledge that a win would seal their berth in the last 16 stage of the World Cup. The South Koreans, bidding to reach the second round for only the second time in eight World Cups, kicked off their group campaign here with a 2-0 win over Greece, but then crashed 4-1 to Argentina to stand second in Group B. "The Nigeria game is now extremely important and it will decide if we reach the round of 16," Huh said. Gwangju Phoenix central midfielder Kim Jung-Woo added: "We must win to get to the second round. "Some people are talking about a draw being enough, but we want to win. "We must try not to concede a goal, especially early on, and we'll have to be highly organised from the very start to the finish." Remarkably for a side that has lost its two opening games, the Super Eagles could still also qualify in their first ever World Cup match against an Asian team -- if it were to rack up a good win over South Korea and Argentina beat Greece.
