AL RAYYAN, Qatar—South Korea advanced to the round of 16 at the World Cup on the tiebreaker of goals scored after beating Portugal 2–1 Friday following a stoppage-time strike from Hwang Hee-chan.

South Korea was heading out of the tournament until Son Heung-min led a length-of-the-field breakaway in the first minute of added time and slipped a pass through to Hwang, who converted a low finish.
