Chasing shadows: Kim Young-gwon, one of South Korea's scorers, skips past Annadurdyyev Altymyrat of Turkmenistan AFP/Jung Yeon-jeDOHA: Hwang Ui-jo scored a brace as South Korea thumped Turkmenistan 5-0 on Saturday to regain first place in Group H in the second phase of Asian World Cup qualifying.

The Turkmens spent the game chasing shadows as they crashed to their third defeat in five group matches to stay third, four points behind the top two. When Kim Young-gwon found the net in the 57th minute from a corner by Son Heung-min which was headed down by Jung Woo-young, the outcome was more or less sealed.

Sri Lankan joy lasted barely a minute. Oumari found the equaliser immediately after the restart as he headed in an excellent free-kick taken by Mohamed Haider.
