South Koreans have always been a bit pretentious, and some people in China joke that Koreans think of themselves as the center of gravity of the universe. When it comes to football, South Koreans don't look down on other Asian countries and always feel that they are the strongest. However, when the Chinese players appeared at the Seoul World Cup Stadium, the South Koreans had to admit that the Chinese team was very strong, and if you only look at the strength on paper, it can be called a strong team in the world.

This is not an exaggeration, not to mention that among the 11 main players of the national football team, apart from the young Xu Zhixin, which of the remaining 10 players has not won the championship in Europe? Even Liang Xiran, who is only 23 years old, has not won the league and the Champions League in the two years he has been in Manchester City, but he has also won the FA Cup! In addition, five of these 10 players have participated in the Champions League final, three of them have won the Champions League, and two of them have won the FIFA Golden Ball Award! These honors have made South Koreans look forward to them.

Therefore, in the match between the Chinese team and the South Korean team, the probability of the former winning is very high, and almost all the media are optimistic about the Chinese team. But there are also many Korean fans and media who think that South Korea has a chance to beat the Chinese team, because this is their Korean's home stadium!

In fact, putting aside the inferiority complex of the Korean nation, what they said also has a certain truth. Football matches are not to see which team has more big names which team will definitely win, otherwise there will be no team other than Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Champions League final every year, and the on-the-spot performance and competitive state are very important, including some off-field factors such as fans, weather, etc.

An Rong's order to the Chinese team is that it must win! Think about it carefully, there are so many superstars in the team, not to mention Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, the two people who broke the monopoly of Melo, the players represented by Chen Zihua and Xu Ziyi are much better than the South Korean team. Perhaps in front of this Chinese team, the only one who can do it in the South Korean team is Son Heung-min.

It seems that the German coach is not afraid of the Chinese team, and he claims that the guarantee of the team's victory is not only the performance of the players, but also the shouts and cheers of the crowd outside the stadium.

This slogan is shouted loudly, but it is impossible to say whether it is a real battle between swords and guns. On the day of the game, the Seoul World Cup Stadium was full of people, most of whom were South Korean fans, and the Chinese fans were basically composed of some local overseas Chinese, international students, and some die-hard fans who came with the team, which was much worse than the home team's fans.

The Chinese team still discharges the 442 formation, which is the best and is relatively rarely used in international football, with Ma Junqiang guarding the dragon gate; Huang Yu, Liang Xiran, Yan Tao, and Tang Ling lined up in the back line; in the middle of the midfield, the "twins" sat in charge, Xu Zhixin and Zhao Wenkang were separated, and the forwards were Zhang Shujie and Li Mu.

The formation of the South Korean team is 4231, goalkeeper Jung Sung-ryong, defenders Oh Jae-suk, Hong Jeong-joong, Kim Ki-hee, Jang Hyun-so, two midfielders are Ji Chengyong and Han Young, three forwards are Son Heung-min, Goo Ji-chul and Lee Qing-yong, and forward is Ji Dong-won.

The cheers of the Korean fans were very loud from the beginning of the game, completely overpowering the momentum of the Chinese fans, until the sixth minute, Huang Yu made a long pass diagonally on the left side, hanging to the right foot of the penalty area, Zhao Wenkang rushed into the penalty area, a left-footed shot, the ball crossed the head of Zheng Chenglong, bounced in the small penalty area, and jumped into the goal of the South Korean team, and the Chinese team led 1:0.

The goal left the South Korean fans dumbfounded, replaced by cheers from the Chinese fans and celebrations from the Chinese players. An Rong didn't react, he seemed to take it for granted that China could break the goal of the South Korean team, and there was nothing surprised or unusual.

The first shot of the game allowed the Chinese team to score.

When everyone who watched the game thought that the situation would develop in favor of the Chinese team, the next game changed dramatically, first in the 24th minute, when Yan Tao blocked Ji Dongyuan's shot in the penalty area, he inadvertently hooked Ji Dongyuan, and the referee decisively stepped forward to blow the whistle, gave Yan Tao a yellow card, and awarded a penalty to the South Korean team.

The Chinese player stepped forward to defend himself, but the referee did not listen, and he determined that Yan Tao had committed a foul first. In the slow-motion replay screen, Yan Tao did hook Chi Dongyuan's calf, and the referee's decision was no problem.

Sun Xingmin took the penalty, Ma Junqiang made a save, and the score became 1:1!

After the equalizer of the Korean team, the spirit of the players also changed, and the fans at the scene changed with them, who re-saw the hope of the Korean team to win and cheered loudly for the team again.

Of course, they also used boos to "salute" the Chinese players, especially Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, as long as the two of them took the ball, boos spread all over the stadium, and even the audience on the TV could clearly hear these sounds. The other players are no better and will be booed as well.

In the 31st minute, Hong just tripped Zhang Shujie, but the South Korean fans dedicated all their boos to the Chinese striker, who they thought was a fake fall - even though the referee had already given Hong a yellow card. A minute later, Li Mu was knocked down by Ji Chengyong again, and he was also booed by South Korean fans, for the same reason as Zhang Shujie, and Ji Chengyong was also warned by the referee, but the home team fans didn't care about this, as long as the Chinese player fell to the ground, they thought it was a fake fall.

In the 39th minute, Tang Ling pulled down the other party in the grappling with Gu Zizhe, but he was also pulled down by Gu Zizhe, and Korean fans began to boo Tang Ling, completely ignoring that there were many small movements on Gu Zizhe's hands. And Chen Zihua and Xu Ziyi also suffered the same problem in defense. In short, there is no Chinese player who has not been booed, not even Ma Junqiang, and the South Korean player booed him because he saved a very dangerous shot from Son Heung-min.

In the forty-second minute of the game, Gu Zizhe and Sun Xingmin teamed up to rush through Xu Ziyi's defense, and Sun Xingmin passed the ball to Ji Chengyong, Ji Chengyong took the ball from the side and passed to the penalty area, the ball fell very well, Liang Xiran couldn't stand the ball, Ji Dongyuan grabbed the point, a lion shook his head, the ball jumped to the upper right corner, Ma Junqiang struggled to save, but Ji Dongyuan's header was of very high quality, and he failed to save the ball.

2:1! South Korea overtakes China at home!

Before the game, they were only thinking about how many goals the Chinese team would score against the South Korean team, and they didn't think about falling behind at all. All this is only because the Chinese team is too valuable and the cards are too big, and the small South Korea has nothing to fear. However, it is such a South Korean team that is not afraid of it, and it is really ahead of the Chinese team.

That's not normal!
