HONG KONG - Son Heung-min and Lee Kang-in, European trophy winners with their clubs, will hope to fire South Korea to the World Cup in the coming days with four remaining automatic spots from Asia up for grabs.
Japan and Iran have already sealed their berths at the 2026 tournament to be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Group B leaders South Korea are guaranteed to join them on June 5 if they avoid defeat against Iraq in Basra. Even if they lose, they will have another opportunity at home against Kuwait on June 10.
South Korea and Tottenham Hotspur captain Son did not have his best club season, but the 32-year-old finished it by lifting the Europa League trophy. Attacking midfielder Lee on May 31 collected a Champions League winner's medal with Paris Saint-Germain after they thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 in Munich, although he remained on the bench for the final.
