Despite all the efforts of the Lebanese team until the last second of the match, he scored only four goals, leaving the Asian Cup victorious in Korea and the dream of qualifying.

Returning to the details of the match, the North Koreans opened the scoring in the ninth minute of Pak Guang's free kick.

George Malki equalized in the 26th minute with a shot from inside the area in the center of goal.

In the 65th minute of the second half, Hilal Al Hilweh took a 2-1 win over Lebanon.

Lebanon received a penalty in the 78th minute, shot by captain Maatouk.

Hilal Al Hilweh sealed the game by scoring the fourth goal in the 96th minute.
