At 19:30 on the evening of June 12, the first round of Group B in the 2010 World Cup saw the match between South Korea and Greece kick off. In the 6th minute, South Korea's No. 14, Lee Jung-Soo, scored the first goal.

In the 14th minute, a South Korean throw-in from the right wing was received by Lee Chung-Yong, who then lobbed it over a defender to enter the penalty area. As he was about to shoot, he was clearly pushed down by a Greek defender behind him, but the referee refused to award a penalty, which sparked some controversy.
