South Korea captain Son Heung-min scored two goals as his side drew 2-2 with Colombia in a friendly in Ulsan on Friday.

Both of Son's strikes came from outside of the penalty area as South Korea stormed into a 2-0 lead in the first half.

But Colombia hit back to level the game as James Rodriguez and Jorge Carrascal netted early in the second period.

Son opened the scoring in the 10th minute after Colombia keeper Camilo Vargas got caught way outside of his natural habitat.

Left-back Johan Mojica gave the ball away to Son, who calmly whipped a shot into an open goal from 25 yards.

Son's first goal had come from his left foot.

The Tottenham forward's second was scored with his right as he found the net from a direct free-kick.

Next up for South Korea will be another friendly against South American opposition when Uruguay visit Seoul on Tuesday.
