It will be a top of the table clash in pool A when Korea DPR and Brazil take center stage, in day three of the FIFA U20 Womens World Cup.
The game will kick off at 4pm today at the Sir John Guise stadium and the winner will be the leader in group A going into the final group games.
Brazil may have had an easy win spoiling PNGs hopes of a good start smashing an equal record of nine unanswered goals.
The equaling record is held by Korea DPR after they smashed Argentina in 2012 nine goals to nil.
So both teams have equaled each other in the highest goals, but both teams have met only three times with Korea DPR winning two of the three matches.
But this is a new tournament and both teams have a new look team for this tournament,
Brazil are one of only four teams to qualify for all 8th editions of the tournament but Korea DPR boast a tournament trophy which the country won in 2006 when the country made its first appearance in the FIFA U20 Womens World Cup.
Brazil punished PNG with a barrage of shots at goal having scored nine goals of 22 attempts at PNGs goal mount, which saw doubles for Gabi Nunes, Brena and Yasmim, while Duda, Katrine and Geyse were also on the score sheet.
They left nothing behind in their wake but a tiered PNG U20 Womens team and a disappointed home crowd, but Korea DPR were dominant in their match keeping the Swedish women struggling in the humid Port Moresby weather.
Korea DPR are set to test the Brazilian outfit who have their best performance finishing third place at Russia 2006, and though they also reached the last four at Canada 2002 and Thailand 2004, the Brazilians failed to advance beyond the quarter-finals in their three other appearances.
Korea DPR boasts an incredible record at the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup, and they are one of the globe’s most successful in the competition. Despite missing out on the inaugural campaign in 2002 and the next edition in 2004, they took Russia 2006 by storm clinching the title as debutants.
Korea have a distinctive style of play that is disciplined and has proven to be dominant seeing them coming in as favorites as well in this tournament, While Brazil may have equaled Korea DPRs record with the highest goals scored in a tournament the two top sides in Pool A will surely entertain the crowd at Sir John Guise
