The South Korean attacker is relieved to have touched down safely after an intense mid-week clash

Tottenham star Son Heung-min has described South Korea's recent clash against North Korea as "very aggressive" with the two nations drawing 0-0 in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday.

The match was played in front of an empty Kim II-Sung Stadium with no fans allowed in to watch the contest which saw each side receive two yellow cards.

North Korea are currently ranked 113th in the world, with South Korea in 37th, making the draw a surprise result.
