VIDEO: Heung-Min Son scores hat trick in South Korea's 8-goal romp over Laos

There's a difference between a win and a blowout.
For 174th-ranked Laos, that line was crossed by South Korea somewhere around the fifth or sixth goal in an 8-0 thrashing during a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier.
Tottenham newcomer Heung-Min Son was good for three goals himself on the night as South Korea exposed failed offside traps, poor man-marking, and general lack of skill to defeat the tiny Southeast Asian side.
South Korea remains at the top of Group G with two wins, its first coming against Myanmar back in June.
