Nation Drawn in World Cup's Group G

South Korea is in Group G in next year's World Cup soccer finals in Germany along with France, Switzerland and Togo.

Soccer's world governing body FIFA on Friday announced the draw in Leipzig, with the national team to play its first game on June 13th against Togo in Frankfurt.

The second game will come on June 18th against France, winner of the 1998 World Cup, in Leipzig and the third against Switzerland on June 23 in Hanover.

South Korea has qualified for the World Cup six straight times since 1986 and seven overall.

Shortly before the draw began, South Korea Coach Dick Advocaat was quoted by FIFA.com as saying the team will be very strong next year and could surprise again like it did in 2002.
