Although Hu Lai's goal gave the Chinese team the lead, it also made everyone happy.
But after the excitement of the goal wore off, almost all Chinese fans began to worry again, worrying that the Chinese team would take a premature lead and be overtaken by their opponents in the next game.
This is not an unnecessary worry of Chinese fans. In the past 41 years, there have been a total of 30 football encounters between China and South Korea, and this kind of thing has happened before.
They took the lead first, and then were equalized by their opponents. Then the Chinese players were in chaos and their thoughts were not unified. Some wanted to attack and then take the lead, some wanted to defend and counterattack first, and some just wanted to defend and not attack, so they wanted to hold on to the draw.
The final result was a mess, and then the opponent scored another goal and was completely defeated.
The scores after that were all different.
Losing just one goal is considered a good performance.
Now the Chinese team has taken the lead in the first sixteen minutes, and there are still seventy-four minutes left in the game. This long time is enough for the Korean team to do something, not to mention that this game is still at the opponent's home court. The Korean team will definitely do something.
Angered by this lost ball...
And once the South Korean team goes crazy, the Chinese team will have no loopholes to exploit. If there are still people who have any luck with the Chinese team, then prepare to be hit by the cruel reality.
Even Hu Lai's supporters are not arrogant enough to think that Hu Lai alone can reverse the Chinese team's 41-year decline in China-Korea football.
There has been a debate on the Internet about how the Chinese team should play next. Whether it is on Weibo or in the barrage on the Tengfei video live broadcast platform, both sides have their own opinions, and almost everyone has a world-famous coach.
Some people say that we should first stabilize the defense and stop the Korean team's subsequent counterattack. As long as we can defend until the end of the first half, it will be considered a victory.
But someone immediately retorted that if he only defended, it would be difficult to defend the Korean team's offense. You must know that they still have Park Guixian who has not shown his strength.
In addition, some people said that at this time, one should take the initiative and use offense instead of defense. Taking advantage of the opportunity of having just taken the lead and boosting morale, they should go straight to Huanglong and try to score another goal.
Naturally, this statement is also the target of siege. Many people think that if you play like this, you are afraid that the South Korean team will score first before you pounce and attack...
It seems that it is impossible to attack it, and it is impossible to defend it.
In fact, let alone fans, players will also face such choices on the court.
After taking the lead, how do you fight?
If the game ends with ten minutes left, it's easy to play. You don't have to hesitate at all, just stick to it until the end of the game.
But in this situation where the game has only started for ten minutes, there are too many choices to make.
The offensive players definitely want to continue attacking so that they have room to perform. The defensive players are worried about continuing to attack. They will directly face the opponent's counterattack and are weak. If the ball is lost, they will not be the ones to take the blame in the end.
?
In this case, the role of the head coach comes into play. He must make a decision in a very short time, whether to attack or defend?
Only by unifying the team's thinking and letting everyone work in the same direction can we turn advantages into victory.
Regarding this point, Shi Wuyin had already made a decision when he just finished celebrating.
He asked Li Zhifei to use his loud voice to inform the players on their way back: "Keep pressing!"
As soon as everyone saw it, they all took a reassurance and understood what to do next.
So after the game restarted, the fans saw that the Chinese team players seemed to have missed the goal and were still frantically pressing the Korean team players without any physical exertion.
As long as a Korean team player has the ball, one or two Chinese team players will press forward and grab the ball, using both hands and feet.
This intensity of pressing made it impossible for the Korean team players to take the ball and think about how to deal with it. They could only pass the ball out in a hurry, especially when Jin Zhihuan made a mistake in stopping the ball and was scored by the Chinese team.
After one goal.
All the Korean team players were like frightened birds, fearing that they and Kim Ji-hwan would be the main culprits for conceding the ball.
You must know that this is their home court, and the home fans can cheer them on, or they can boo them because of their poor performance and low-level mistakes...
This is a double-edged sword.
In this kind of rapid rotation, the Korean team had no way to think about how to organize the offense. After all, they had not received any special training in this area before today, and their team style was not like this.
In the end, they could only push the ball forward and hand it to a powerful forward like Park Guixian.
But the problem is that the success rate of attacking with long passes is inherently low, and the accuracy of long passes in pressing situations is even lower.
Park Guixian is indeed a striker with outstanding personal abilities, with body and speed, but his foot skills are a bit rough. Even if he can get the first shot, he will still lose the ball when faced with two people's pressing.
Coupled with the Chinese team's pressing and encirclement tactics, it is equivalent to separating every Korean player with the ball from other teammates. It is difficult for players with the ball to get support and support from their teammates, and they often fall into a situation of fighting alone. The offensive effect is
Even worse.
Just like this, fourteen minutes after losing the ball, the game entered the 30th minute, but the Korean team still failed to equalize the score.
Every time the South Korean team passes the football forward and hits the Chinese team's half, the Korean fans in the stands will give out huge cheers and shouts to cheer for the team.
And soon, this shouting will stop abruptly.
They cheered up and encouraged again and again, but died down again and again.
"It can't go on like this. We haven't been able to score a goal so far. Our offense has no structure..." the commentator of the Korean TV station said anxiously. "Yongzhe, what do you think?
The guest named Yongzhe was very calm: "I think what we should do now is to stay patient and wait for the Chinese team to consume almost all their physical energy, and then use quick attacks to completely destroy them. At present, as long as the first half is not
Just keep conceding goals...I guess with the physical performance of the Chinese team, they will run out of energy after sixty minutes..."
The narrator thought for a while: "It seems that this is really the truth..."
"Yeah, didn't you see that Coach Li has been sitting on the coaching bench and hasn't made any adjustments? What does this mean? It means that Coach Li Anren has a lot of ideas. He knows very well that what the Chinese team is showing now is just a bluff.
...If you adjust your tactics just because of such a pressing situation, you are just messing up your position!
"Of course, it would be wrong to say that Coach Li has not adjusted anything. At least now we have strengthened the practice of direct long passes from the backcourt to Park Guixian. On the one hand, we can rely on Park Guixian's strong personal strength to break the deadlock, and on the other hand, we can also reduce the number of
The number of times the football went back and forth in our half reduced the risk of being intercepted and directly counterattacked. This is definitely a targeted adjustment made by coach Li Anren, which fully shows that coach Li Anren..."
While the guest commentator was talking non-stop, the Chinese team intercepted the Korean team's long pass and launched a fast break.
Wang Zijian used his speed to dribble the ball along the wing and quickly passed the midfield. Then he and Guo Junfu, who came up to meet him, played a one-two against the wall. After receiving Guo Junfu's pass, he dribbled the ball through again.
When the Korean commentator saw this, he could only interrupt the guests' comments and analysis by shouting loudly: "Be careful! The Chinese team's quick counterattack!"
Facing Wang Zijian who was about to charge, the South Korean team's left back Cui Eun-kyung grabbed Wang Zijian's jersey and stopped him just as the latter entered the 30-meter area.
The football rolled out of the sideline and Wang Zijian was pulled to the ground.
The referee's whistle sounded and Cui Eun-kyung was called for a foul.
The Korean fans in the stands expressed their dissatisfaction with the foul call by booing.
Cui Enjing did not defend himself. When he reached out to pull Wang Zijian's jersey, he knew that if he succeeded, he would definitely foul. But it didn't matter. He felt that he could prevent the Chinese team's fast break with a foul from the wing.
I earned it myself.
And the referee didn't give me a yellow card yet, so I made a huge profit.
He retreated obediently and returned to the penalty area to prepare to participate in defense.
Wang Zijian still rushed into the thirty-meter area. Although he had just crossed the line, he was approaching the penalty area.
A free kick from the wing here is almost equivalent to a corner kick.
Naturally, defense cannot be taken lightly.
※※※
"That's it? That's it? No cards? Not even a yellow card?"
“It really deserves to be the home court!”
"What a fuss! Haven't Koreans ever seen normal operations?!"
"Damn, this foul is basically a tactical foul. If you don't pull someone, Wang Zijian will break through. Once it passes, it doesn't matter whether it is a pass from the bottom or directly into the penalty area... Not to mention giving a red card, even a yellow card
Not giving it would be too much!”
On the Internet, whether on Weibo or in the live broadcast of Tengfei Video, Chinese fans are scolding Koreans for being despicable and shameless.
CCTV commentator He Feng was also very dissatisfied with this penalty: "Although the visual effect of this kind of foul is not very scary, the result is worse. If there is no foul, the Chinese team will directly threaten the South Korean team's goal!"
Shen Lang was even more explicit in the online live broadcast: "The Korean team... everyone knows it, ha!"
Shi Wuyin jumped up and yelled at the fourth official to express his dissatisfaction. Of course, other than that, he did not do anything more extreme. After all, this is the home court of the Korean team...you still have to pay attention to the degree of protest.
We must not only show our anger, but also not give the referee the opportunity to send off the head coach...
To be honest, it's quite difficult.
Fortunately, the Chinese team is in the lead now, so even if the attack fails, it is still acceptable. Therefore, Shi Wuyin's true inner emotions are not as angry as he showed.
If the Chinese team is one goal behind and the attack is stopped by the opponent with a foul, but the referee doesn't even give a yellow card, Shi Wuyin really doesn't know if he can control his emotions then...
※※※
Guo Junfu came up to take the free kick, which was similar to a corner kick. He first asked Wang Zijian to stay to cooperate with him, and then waved to other teammates to go to the penalty area to respond.
Because it was a sufficiently deflected free kick, the South Korean team did not arrange for the players to line up in front of the wall. Instead, they all returned to the penalty area line, where they were entangled with the Chinese team players.
Guo Junfu laid out the football and said to Wang Zijian who was standing next to him: "In a moment, you run towards the football from the outside, pretending to take the free kick, then cross the football and slide directly to the bottom to speed up. I will pass the football to
You, the ball is passed in front of you, and after you catch up with the football, you can decide whether to pass the ball directly or break through..."
Wang Zijian understood that this was a tactical free kick. Rather than passing the football directly into the penalty area and asking him to cross it, he was actually passing the football towards the goal. But with this extra step, he could pass the ball to the goal.
Pull out the players who are all entrenched in the penalty area, so that you can create space in front of the goal.
So he nodded: "Okay, I understand."
※※※
Park Guixian stood on the line of the penalty area and prepared to defend the free kick with his teammates. Then he looked around and shouted loudly to remind his teammates: "Get ready to counterattack! After a while, we pushed the football out, and everyone
Everyone has to rush forward! While causing offside, hit them with a quick counterattack!"
He is not the captain, but as the team's number one star, everyone will listen to what he says.
Hu Lai, who was also standing in the crowd, couldn't understand what Park Guixian said. He guessed that it was probably to remind everyone to pay attention to their own defense.
After all, he has already scored a goal, so he must have become the number one enemy in the hearts of the Korean team!
Under such circumstances, I must not fight hand-to-hand with these people in the restricted area.
Thinking of this, he turned around and pulled away from the crowd and walked to the front of the crowd. The density of defensive players here was much lower than in the middle, and he could still find an opening.
If a teammate passes the free kick forward, he will have more chances than if he passes it in the middle.
※※※
After both players took their positions and formed their formation, the referee also blew the whistle.
Wang Zijian ran towards the football and made a gesture of kicking the football directly into the penalty area with his right foot. At the same time, the players on both sides of the penalty area also collided with each other like a tide and a dam. The Chinese team players wanted to squeeze in front of the goal.
, and the Korean team players want to stop them.
But Wang Zijian did not kick the ball, but jumped over the football! After jumping over the football, he suddenly accelerated forward.
Following closely behind him, Guo Junfu came up and pushed the football straight in front of him!
Indirect free kick!
This move disrupted the Korean team's previous defensive arrangement. The Korean team's winger Li Ilmin, who was originally shrinking in the penalty area, quickly rushed to the wing in an attempt to intercept Wang Zijian.
The Chinese team players who were originally entangled with the Korean team's defensive players in the middle immediately rushed forward. Some people directly went to meet Wang Zijian and pulled out another Korean team player.
Other Korean team players reacted accordingly.
Park Guixian's plan to take the opportunity to counterattack failed from the beginning...
He had no choice but to run forward and defend.
Hu Lai saw everyone rushing forward, but he who was already in front stopped going.
Instead, he turned to look at the middle road and found that it was emptier than he thought.
So he turned around and retreated, moving towards the penalty spot.
At this time, there was chaos in front of the Korean team’s goal.
"The Chinese team took an indirect free kick, and Wang Zijian caught up with the ball and hit the ball!"
Amid the boos and screams of Korean fans, Wang Zijian dribbled the ball toward the baseline, then chased the ball back when the football was about to go out of bounds and made a pass!
The football was picked up by him and flew towards the goal, not in the front, but in the middle!
Everyone who tried to pounce came up empty-handed, whether they were players from the Chinese team or the Korean team...
They couldn't even jump up to fight for the top, and could only watch the football flying over their heads from below.
Someone turned around following the football and saw Park Young-gyeol, the center back of the South Korean team, leaping high and trying to push the football away.
But he misjudged the landing point of the football, or he didn't have time to predict the landing point at all. The ball came just as the person ran. How could he not jump?
He jumped and missed!
"Falling out!"
Behind him, at the penalty spot close to the goal, there was a yellow figure that almost jumped with him. However, his thin figure was blocked by the figure of the 1.88-meter-tall Park Young-gyeol.
, many people didn’t see it!
It wasn't until this moment that they discovered that there were players from the Chinese team ambushing behind Park Young-jie fighting for the top!
It’s that number fourteen again!
"Hulai——!!!"
In He Feng's prolonged roar, Hu Lai twisted his body, like a tightly twisted towel suddenly shaken open, and the power was transferred from the feet to the waist, then to the upper body, and finally to the shoulders, neck and head!
Bang!
His swinging forehead hit the football hard!
The football just flew into the goal that was very close at hand!
However, when South Korea's goalkeeper Kim Hyun-yoon jumped into the air, he only hit a ball of flowing air... which was the trace of the football flying in the air.
"Ah!! This ball! This ball... this ball!!" He Feng was so frightened that he stuttered, "There is this ball!!"
He didn't finish his sentence until about two seconds after the ball had hit the goal.
After landing, Hu Lai staggered and turned around and ran towards the corner flag area. He wanted to do that celebration again!
Chasing him were almost all the Chinese team players. Wearing red stripes and yellow jerseys, they were like tail flames behind Hu Lai, sweeping through the South Korean team's penalty area.
It's like Hu Lai's cloak, proudly fluttering in the wind!
The boos in the stands were like the howling wind blowing in my face.
In the strong wind, the figure jumped high, turned around, waved its arms, and smashed into the turf of the Seoul World Cup Stadium with a ball of fire!
BOOM!
