Chapter Ninety-Six: "China-South Korea Confrontation" (Part I)
With a slight sound, a huge projection screen was slowly lowered from the pre-built bracket on the stage, and the two hosts, Lin Musen and Yan Yuxin, walked off the stage and went to the lounge at the back to take a rest. After a while, the projection screen stopped with a slight shock, and a metal bracket moved along the pre-installed guide rail, putting down a projector, and with a "pop", a white light shrouded the projection screen.
Soon the game screen of "Pro Evolution Soccer 4" appeared on the screen, and then quickly switched to the team selection screen of the friendly match, at the same time, the half-length picture of two young people appeared on the large-screen TV in front of the stage, according to the prompt text on the screen, Deng Yang of Dalian, China appeared on the TV on the left, and Park Sung-ho of Seoul, South Korea appeared on the TV on the right. The selection boxes of 1P (Deng Yang) and 2P (Park Sung-ho) kept moving, and then stopped at the Chinese team and the South Korean team respectively, and under the control of 1P, the game soon came to the screen where the game began.
"China's Deng Yang vs South Korea's Park Sung-ho ......"
"China vs South Korea ......"
The game is about to begin......
"Football, China vs South Korea ......", if Zhang Lexing was at the scene at the moment, he would definitely shout "China-South Korea confrontation, see China-South Korea confrontation again", it is normal for him to be a little excited after witnessing the failure of the anti-Korean resistance for many years. For these players in the audience, this is also an exciting topic, especially last month Milu's Chinese national team just lost 0-1 at the feet of the South Korean Olympic team, although it was only a friendly so-called "China-South Korea match", but it still added a blockage to the hearts of many fans, including many players who are both fans and game fans.
Zhao Xu is such a person, he, like Deng Yang who is playing, is also a native of Dalian and a super fan, and he is very clear about the long-standing grievances between China and South Korea in football. Since the Asian Games in December 1978, China lost 0-1 to South Korea, and has not defeated South Korea in any international A-level competition for almost 22 years, and in the 1992 Olympic qualifiers, in the last draw to qualify, the Chinese team's gate was broken by the South Korean team three times in the opening nine minutes, which also gave birth to an intriguing new term "Koreanophobia". At first, the players were still trying to deny it, but as the number of people who spoke about it gradually increased, and as the number of defeats continued to increase, it seems that some players also believe in the "Koreanophobia" theory, and once they encounter Korea, they are prone to weakness.
In last year's Olympic qualifiers, the Chinese Olympic team led by Horton first lost 0-1 at the feet of the South Korean Olympic team in Seoul, and then was forced to draw 1-1 by the Koreans in Shanghai. Last month, the new coach Milu led the newly formed Chinese national team to challenge the South Korean Olympic team, but the result was another small defeat, which disappointed people who were expecting to break the circle of winless in South Korea.
After watching the TV game that day, Zhao Xu was also disappointed, no he had no better way, fortunately, the current national team has just been formed, and the new head coach Milu is legendary, and he still has a lot of hope in his heart, maybe the next time he meets South Korea, he will be able to create a new history. It's just that Zhao Xu didn't expect that a new round of "China-South Korea Confrontation Competition" would appear in front of him in such a form.
Deng Yang, who is from Dalian, fell in love with football at a very young age under the influence of his father, and also liked the quadrennial World Cup, and even had the opportunity to become the main player of the school football team when he was in middle school. On September 13, 1997, he was brought into the Golden State Stadium by his father to watch how the national team was scored four goals in a row in a 2-0 situation, and finally lost the opportunity to participate in the 98 World Cup.
At that time, although Deng Yang was in a very uncomfortable mood, he did not cry, and later when he saw Lao Rong's post "Dalian Jinzhou does not believe in tears", although time has passed, tears flowed inexplicably, that is, from that time, he fell madly in love with football games, starting from "FIFA98", to "World Cup 98", and finally "FIFA99". In the game, in addition to trying his favorite Brazilian team, the Dutch team and AC Milan, his biggest hobby is to use the Chinese team to start from the group stage and go all the way to finally win the Hercules Cup.
Later, by chance, Deng Yang came into contact with "Pro Evolution Soccer", and he found that compared to EA's "FIFA" series, "Pro Evolution Soccer" was more like the football he was familiar with, and it felt more real, so he changed his mind and became obsessed with "Pro Evolution Soccer", and with the support of his father, he had a DreamBox128 game console and a set of genuine "Pro Evolution Soccer 4" discs.
When he learned that today's opponent was a South Korean, Deng Yang had already made up his mind to give up the more powerful Brazil and the Netherlands, and instead chose the Chinese team, and his opponent Park Chenghao was also very cooperative and chose the South Korean team, so the China-South Korea confrontation happened strangely in such a situation.
Park Sung-ho has been playing football games for less than three years, which is not too long, but he started playing the original version of Pro Evolution Soccer on the PS console, and then upgraded all the way to Pro Evolution Soccer 4 on DreamBox128. Park Sung-ho felt lucky to be able to showcase himself at the World Championship this time, especially when he learned that his opponent was from China. In Park Sung-ho's view, whether it is on the football field or in the game console, South Korea is definitely the one who stabilizes China in the football project.
When Park Sung-ho saw that his opponent Deng Yang actually gave up on those more capable teams and chose the relatively weak Chinese team, he couldn't help but smile contemptuously, and secretly laughed at Deng Yang in his heart, and then chose the Korean team, he wanted to relive the victory a month ago on the game console.
With the press of the OK button, the game officially began......
Different from the online game of the computer,DreamBox128Or the battle of the game console is usually two people sit side by side,But perhaps in order to set off the atmosphere,This time the confrontation of "Pro Evolution Soccer 4" also deliberately adopted the mode of two-machine battle,That is, one person on both sides of the gameDreamBox128Game console and TV,The two consoles are connected by a dedicated communication cable。
While pressing the OK button on the gamepad, Deng Yang turned sideways and glanced at the opponent sitting not far away, the distance between the two was only six or seven meters at most, not only could he hear the sound of Park Sung-ho's mouth, but he could even feel the contempt of the other party. Perhaps it was the opponent who reminded him of the defeat of the Chinese team a month ago, or the defeat of the National Olympic team last year, Deng Yang is now burning with anger in his heart, and he is eager to cut the opponent off the horse immediately.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the match has now begun, with Deng Yang from Dalian, China and Park Sung-ho from Seoul, South Korea, using China and South Korea...... Today, the Chinese team discharged a 442 formation, goalkeeper Jiang Jin, left back Wu Chengying, central defender Zhang Enhua, Fan Zhiyi, right back Chen Gang, right forward Da Li Ming, central midfielder Ma Mingyu, Li Tie, left forward Shen Si, and the forward partners are Yang Chen and Su Maozhen. The South Korean team still adopts the usual 352 formation, goalkeeper Kim Yongdae, three defenders are Park Jae-hong, Hong Myung-bo, and Shim Jae-won, Lee Young-pyo, Yoo Sang-teol, Park Jin-sub, Kim Sang-sik, and Lu Ting-yun are five generals in the midfield, and Lee Dong-guk and Xue Qi-hyun are on the front line...... The first to kick off was the Chinese team......"
The simultaneous commentary made many players who were watching WCG in front of the TV stunned, and many players who also liked football or watched the Sydney Olympics immediately heard the owner of this voice, but I didn't expect that the organizing committee of an exhibition match of "Pro Evolution Soccer 4" invited Huang Jianxiang of the central station to comment, which really made many people unexpected.
Deng Yang's ears of the on-site operation only came out of the earphones familiar game background music, a furious he launched a fierce attack from the first kick-off, after three passes and two down, a through ball tore through the defense of the South Korean team, "Yang Chen" received the ball more than ten meters away from the big penalty area, but unfortunately he was too impatient He only took two steps to shoot directly, the ball was unexpectedly saved by the "Golden Dragon" who attacked, and just fell to the feet of the South Korean team defender "Shen Zaiyuan".
"Shen Zaiyuan" pounced forward with the ball, and when the opponent's interceptor had not yet surrounded him, a long pass transferred the ball to the other side. After "Liu Xiangtie" received the ball, under the cover of "Li Rongpyo", he made a one-by-one collision with the wall, flashed the "Chen Gang" who came to defend, and rushed straight to the Chinese team's penalty area with the ball. After attracting the defense of a central defender, taking advantage of the opportunity that another central defender and left back were pinned down by "Li Dongguo" and "Xue Qixuan", a clever diagonal pass, "Li Rongpyo", who bypassed "Chen Gang", received the ball at the edge of the penalty area, and then directly blasted the ball to the door of the Chinese team with a big foot.
The ball flew to the back corner of the goal in a less obvious arc, and if it wasn't for the timely reaction of "Jiang Jin" and the ball out of the penalty area, the South Korean team controlled by Park Sung-ho would have taken a one-goal lead. Deng Yang, who came back to his senses, only felt a chill behind him, just now he thought that the opponent's ball had been decided, who knew that the ghost was actually saved by the goalkeeper, which made him feel like he was in the aftermath of the disaster, which was never done when he played with the computer.
Park Sung-ho watched "Lee Young-pyo" shoot at the goal, the ball went straight to the back corner of the opponent's door, and he was about to score, and even he had already thought about how to celebrate at this moment, who thought that the opponent's goalkeeper made a magical save and slapped the ball out of the penalty area, so that it fell short, and he couldn't help but wave his hand in annoyance.
I don't know if it was stimulated by this attack, in the subsequent game, Park Sung-ho's South Korean team gradually controlled the situation on the field through rapid passing and cutting cooperation and active scramble, often three or four people used large-scale transfer and small-scale clever cooperation to tear apart the defense line organized by Deng Yang, if it wasn't for the goalkeeper's magic, maybe he would have to lose the ball. During this time, perhaps in a hurry to score, the Chinese team controlled by Deng Yang passed too many blindly forwards, most of which were cut off by the midfield defense organized by Park Sung-ho because the line was too obvious, and occasionally passed through the midfield, but because he was too impatient, he was either forced into a corner by dribbling, or he came directly to a shot that did not reach the edge.
In the 35th minute (time in the game), Park Sung-ho planned a clever offensive, the central defender broke the ball and passed directly to the gap on the right side of the Chinese team, the left forward "Li Rongpyo" got the ball and drove straight along the side, after attracting the central defender of the Chinese team to the side, a long pass sent the ball to the big penalty area, the unguarded "Xue Qixuan" with his head, the ball changed direction and smashed on the upper edge of the goal and rebounded back, very coincidentally touched the back of "Jiang Jin" and refracted into the net, and the South Korean team led 1-0.
Deng Yang waved his hand angrily, and then shook his head again, he knew that this ball could not be blamed on others, who let him not organize the formation in defense, leaving a big gap for others to use. But it doesn't matter, it's only the first half and there's still plenty of time for him to equalise and even overtake.
"Yang Chen" kicked the ball on the tee point to the side of "Su Maozhen", Deng Yang was ready to take advantage of his own control of the ball to find the opponent's flaws, but unfortunately before he could realize his idea, the blows followed one after another. "Su Maozhen" was about to turn around after receiving the ball, but was shoveled down by the "Li Dongguo" who suddenly rushed up, and before the "Ma Mingyu" who followed behind could react, the "Xue Qixuan" who rushed over on the other side had already got the ball, and then a feint shook the "Ma Mingyu" in the middle and killed the penalty area.
Park Sung-ho controlled "Xue Qi-hyun" to advance in the middle, and in order to allow other players to follow, he did not advance quickly. In order to prevent the opponent from moving forward, Deng Yang operated "Li Tie" to intercept, but was easily thrown away by Park Chenghao's turn to accelerate, and then took advantage of the opportunity when the defenders were attracted over, a diagonal straight ball passed through the area between the Chinese team's central defender and right back, and "Li Rongpyo", who accelerated up from the other side, got the ball.
In order to stop the opponent, Deng Yang had to control the right back "Chen Gang" to intercept, seeing that the position was a little stuck, he could only throw his foot to tackle, who knew that at this time "Li Rongpyo" suddenly changed direction, caught off guard, "Chen Gang" kicked "Li Rongpyo" directly in the penalty area, the referee's whistle sounded, penalty!
The South Korean team came up to take the penalty is the midfielder "Yoo Sang-tie", Deng Yang watched the opponent switch the position of the penalty kick from time to time, and was very nervous, this ball is very critical to him, if it can't be stopped, the first half will definitely be 0-2 behind, then the second half will be difficult to play. "Yoo Sang-tie" stopped, then began to accelerate to the ball at the penalty spot, kicked out, "Jiang Jin" pounced on his left side, but the ball flew directly to the middle and crashed into the net, and the South Korean team led 2-0.
Deng Yang covered his face in pain, what he didn't want to happen still happened, and now he was in big trouble. Park Sung-ho, who was sitting opposite, had a contemptuous smile on his face, and sure enough, as he thought, the opponent was not vulnerable at all, and the team of the Republic of Korea was really the strongest. In the subsequent game, Deng Yang, who had a muddy brain, couldn't organize an effective attack at all, either lost the ball, or passed it directly out of bounds because of too much force, and Park Chenghao didn't know if he relaxed after leading by two balls, and he didn't organize any effective attack, and even had a single shot, in order to pursue the angle, he didn't kick the power, and directly sent the ball to "Jiang Jin".
Zhao Xu, who was sitting in the audience area, looked at the game on the curtain and couldn't help but shake his head, this Dalian fellow is still not good, I originally expected him to bring everyone a different feeling, but when I really kicked it, I felt that it was not as good as the team led by Milu, and they only lost one goal.
"TNND, when it comes to football, you just can't play South Korea?" Zhao Xu muttered indignantly in his heart.
"Slap", Qin Qifeng couldn't help but snort, just now he saw "Liu Xiangtie" kicking the ball to the middle on TV, but "Jiang Jin" pounced on the left side of the goal, he couldn't help but pat his thigh, who thought that the strength was not well controlled, and a red mark was made on his thigh.
Since the newspaper saw that the WCG World Finals will be held in Beijing, Qin Qifeng has planned to go to watch it live, but unfortunately it is not easy to get tickets for WCG, but fortunately, the TV station will broadcast it, so he also has the opportunity to stay at home on Sunday morning, turn on the TV and turn to Central Channel 5, and watch the opening ceremony of WCG comfortably. It's just that when he didn't expect it, as soon as the grouping draw of "StarCraft" ended, he saw an alternative China-South Korea match, but the score at the end of this half made him feel too uncomfortable.
"Damn, I can't play Koreans on the court, and I can't think of changing to a game console, I knew it was like this, and Lao Tzu also signed up!" Qin Qifeng muttered dissatisfiedly.
