I can only wonder at what was going through the South Korean players’ minds in that moment, just seconds after they had knocked off Germany in a stunning 2-0 upset only to discover that it all meant nothing—that they’d be going home anyway because Mexico had failed to...beat Sweden...Over the course of about 15 minutes the South Koreans went from experiencing the creeping dread of an increasingly likely 0-0 draw or 0-1 loss, to the blinding, exhilarating thrill of a 2-0 win, all followed in swift succession by the cruel comedown of learning it changed exactly nothing and helped them not at all.-Deadspin
