World Cup 2010, Argentina Vs. South Korea: Own Goal From Park Chu-Young Puts Argentina Ahead

A 16th minute own goal from Park Chu-Young has given Argentina a 1-0 lead early against South Korea.

On the first set piece opportunity of the match, Lionel Messi hit a low ball from the left flank to the middle of the area. A right shin stuck-out by Park put the ball into his own net, the first goal allowed by South Korea this tournament.

Without any Argentina plays around him, Park just appeared to misplay the Messi cross, making it 1-0 Argentina.
