Uli Stielike's future as South Korea's head coach is safe despite its 1-0 World Cup qualifying defeat to China, Korean FA chief Chung Mong-gyu said on Friday.
South Korea still occupies one of the two automatic qualification spots for next year's World Cup finals, and Chung backed Stielike to carry on as coach ahead of Tuesday's Group A clash with fourth-place Syria in Seoul.
"We didn't play such a bad match," Chung said.
