Rehhagel graceful in defeat

Greece boss Otto Rehhagel admitted that his team were second best after watching them lose their World Cup opener 2-0 to South Korea.
South Korea took the lead at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth with just seven minutes gone when central defender Lee Jung-soo volleyed home Ki Sung-yueng's free-kick, and they never looked like relinquishing their advantage to a lacklustre Greece side before Park Ji-sung added a second.
Rehhagel said: "We were unlucky in a couple of situations towards the end of the match, but it was a deserved victory for South Korea."
