Coach Advocaat to Face 1st Test vs. Iran

National soccer coach Dick Advocaat on Wednesday takes on his first test in a friendly match versus Iran at Seoul's World Cup Stadium.

Advocaat said he will use strikers Park Ji-sung and Park Chu-young to pressure the Iranians, and use members of the 2002 World Cup team under Guus Hiddink.

Against Iran, South Korea has a record of seven wins, seven losses and three draws, with Iran beating the national team, 4-3, in the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup last year.

South Korea ranks 26th in the FIFA international rankings and Iran 18th.
