Korea laboured to a 2-1 win over Pakistan at the Sultan of Johor Cup at the Taman Daya Hockey Stadium in Johor Bahru. It was their second consecutive win after they had beaten India 6-4 the previous day.
And for Pakistan, who lost to New Zealand the previous day, it was a bitter pill to swallow given that they played very well after being 2-0 down but paid the price for sloppy finishing.
