Having also started their quarter-final clash as they brushed past Saudi Arabia 2-0 on Tuesday, Yang once again started as goals either side of the break saw them sail into the final four.

The winger played the first 45 minutes in the Japan-hosted tournament before being substituted at the interval.

Yang - who is on loan this season at KVC Westerlo - and his nation will now face a semi-final tie on Wednesday.

Held every four years, the legendary Heung-Min Son previously helped Korea to the gold medal at the 2018 edition of the event.
