Anyone watching?

Nope following the text commentary though,Lee Dong-gook of Jeonbuk apparently had a spell at Middlesbrough 12 years ago,he starts on the bench,can't say i remember him.

As for Suwon Bluewings Their key player is Australia international Adam Taggart, a former Dundee United and Fulham player. He was the K League's top scorer last season with 20 goals.

Jeonbuk are the reigning champions,Suwon are the cup holders,so i'm surmising these are 2 of the big-hitters in the K-League.

I also note none of the players or officials on the pitch are wearing masks,so thankfully if the PL makes a return,that daft idea will never see the light of day.

Link for anyone interested.

Taggart has had best chance so far...just a shame he was offside.

It's like watching Chris Wood again

VAR for penalty. Referee looking at the screen on the sideine.

Anyone remember this lad?

Suwon centre-back Doneil Henry is the first ever Canadian player to play in K League.

He transferred from Vancouver Whitecaps this season.

Henry also played for West Ham United and Blackburn Rovers in England.

With his nice physical attributes (188cm, 88kg), he has powerful play and his defence skills are overwhelming but has slow feet.

No penalty. Probably should have been.

A VAR check,never thought i'd miss having one of those.

The referee has a check on the VAR screen and says no penalty. The ball hit Doneil Henry's thigh before hitting him on the arm so that's not a handball.

I note the ref viewed the footage himself,before making the final call,probably called it just right,been harsh to give that.

It hit his other hand as well which arguably he should have not jad in the position he did.

Either way, it's much better having the referee view it and decide.

This Lee Dong-gook seems to be somewhat of a celebrity in South Korea.

Former Middlesbrough striker Lee Dong-gook is 41 but is still doing very well. He mainly plays 30 to 50 minutes per game as a substitute but scored nine league goals last season.

He is not only a football star but also a TV star with his kids. He married the runner-up of Miss Korea in 2005. He has four daughers, including twins, and one son.

Lee and his kids have appeared on the Sunday variety show "The Return of Superman" for five years where famous Korean fathers take care of their children for 48 hours without their wives. His kids are also well known.

The piped crowd noise is certainly interesting

Straight red card for a reckless challenge

More Lee Dong-gook trivia,Lee Dong-gook is the only still active player to have played in the 1998 World Cup.

Is this correct,it could well be,as Buffon never got off the subs bench in France.

Another Aussie who plays in South Korea,i didn't realise there was so many.Daft challenge no question it merited a red card.

n national solidarity Terry Antonis' fellow Australian Adam Taggart leaves the pitch. Well almost, he's subbed off as ex-Nottingham Forest man Lars Veldwijk comes on up front for Jeonbuk.

Yet another who played in England,i can only assume none of them made an impact,as the names don't ring any bells.

1-0 from a corner for Dong-gook

Free header, poor defending

The type of goal we like Tarks,Mee or Wood to score

Fitting celebration as well.

In his celebration, Lee Dong-gook did hand signals to thank South Korean medical staff for their work during the coronavirus pandemic.

A stoppage time sub to run the clock down.Some things never change wherever in the world you are.

Finished 1-0 to Jeonbuk,they're motoring on,and look like the team to beat again.As for Suwon their wings got clipped.
