South Korea has won the gold medal for the men's soccer at the Incheon Games, beating neighbours North Korea 1-0 with virtually the last kick of the game in a dramatic final that went well into extra time.
The match was a close affair with the score remaining even at 0-0 for 120 minutes until number 15, Rim Changwoo, sparked wild celebrations by breaking the deadlock and smashing in a close-range volley following a goal line clearance by the North Korean defence.
