At this time, there were also many Korean netizens on the South Korean Internet who were scolding Chen Long and China, which was similar to the Chinese Internet scolding South Korea because of the penalty kick before. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This hatred between the two sides is really all-encompassing, and in some respects, it even exceeds the hatred between China and Japan......

This is also an interesting phenomenon.

Of course, people in the middle of it won't find it interesting.

For example, if the Korean commentator's remarks are heard by the Chinese players, I am afraid that they will have to greet his whole family......

After Chen Long went off the field, it stands to reason that it was a great opportunity for the South Korean team to fight back.

But now they have to face Guo Haoran's iron wall.

The competition turned into Guo Haoran's solo show.

Before the start of this Olympic Games, in fact, not only Guo Haoran, such as Cai Heng and several other starters of the Chinese Olympic team, in the outside media, people only know that their origins are not small, either from the big five league clubs, or from the sixth league Super League club, but there is still some little understanding of the hard power of these players.

After all, more than a year has passed since the U20 World Cup, and the level of the Olympic Games will only be higher than that of the U20 World Cup.

Therefore, now, when the Chinese team has advanced strongly from the group stage to the present, everyone has a new understanding of the Chinese Olympic team.

There is no doubt that it is worthy of being a new force in world football and the team with the most talent potential in this Olympic Games.

On the field, goalkeeper Guo Haoran's outstanding performance also constantly refreshed the eyes of fans, and also made people understand once again why he is from Bayern Club.

…………

Of course, this is also related to the excellent performance of Asus, Du Yi and others, which makes it difficult for the South Korean team to attack the penalty area and can only choose a long shot from outside the penalty area.

In the last few minutes of the game, the score was still 3:1, the Chinese team was ahead, and Li Yang's attention was obviously no longer on the game itself, but began to tell the significance of this victory for Chinese football.

“…… After beating South Korea, China will become the semi-finals of the men's football competition at this Paris Olympics. Although the Olympic team has made history every game since beating Mexico in the first group game, what they have achieved is still very impressive! Reaching the semi-finals is not only the best result of the Chinese men's football team in the Olympic Games, but also a comprehensive symbol of the rise of Chinese football! ”

The best result of the national team in the Asian Cup is the championship, but the Asian Cup is a continental competition, and the Olympics is a world-class competition, and the feeling is still different, the Olympics is a competition against the whole world.

"Now, if the boys in the Olympic team can win one more game, they will get a medal early, regardless of whether it is gold or silver. This is a great breakthrough for Chinese men's football, because it will be the first medal for Chinese men's football in the Olympic Games! But this is not easy, because according to the rules of the matchup, their opponent in the semi-finals will be the winner between Honduras and Brazil, the Brazilian Olympic team after the favorite Spain, the biggest favorite to win the Olympic Games, the strongest team, their victory over Honduras should not be a problem, that is to say, the Chinese team's opponent in the semi-finals will be Brazil...... Regarding the Brazilian team, I think we are not unfamiliar to most of the players of our Chinese Olympic team, because just a year ago, in the U20 World Cup, the young men of the Chinese team were the ...... who defeated them! At that time, the leaders of the Brazilian team, Redil and Osto, have now grown into the absolute main force of the Brazilian Olympic team, and for this Brazilian Olympic team, the greatest confidence for them is that in addition to Redil and Osto, they also have this more powerful ace player ~ Super center forward who plays for Manchester United ~ Mosqueto, Mosqueto is the second star in Brazilian football after Neymar, and the top 20 players in the player list, this Olympic Games, The 27-year-old Mosquito was recruited by the Brazilian Football Federation into the Olympic team with one purpose, to help Brazil win the championship..."

In Li Yang's view, the semi-finals against Brazil are definitely a pinnacle battle.

…………

When the whistle was finally blown at the end of the game, the substitutes and coaches of the Chinese team who were still waiting on the sidelines rushed into the stadium to celebrate the victory with the players of the national Olympic team on the field.

They made a whole new history. Before leaving for Paris, the domestic media set them the goal of breaking into the knockout round to win.

And now, they have not only made it to the knockout rounds, but also to the semi-finals! And it was the South Korean team, the rival of Chinese football, that defeated and eliminated!

It was a really exciting victory.

Everyone involved was thrilled and excited.

As soon as I was excited, some words could be spoken.

In the post-match mixed area, Guo Haoran was pulled by reporters for an interview.

Because of the two penalty encounters with Hanoi Sheng in the game, as well as that clash, he also became the focus of attention. Everyone wants to know the inside story of the confrontation between him and Hanoi Sheng.

Is there any controversy about those two penalties, what did he say to Hanoi Sheng, and was it a fake fall when he was pushed to the ground by Hanoi Sheng......

Excited, Guo Haoran stood in front of the sponsor's sign, facing the camera lens of the broadcaster, and interacted with reporters from China and South Korea.

"About the penalty, about Hanoi, I think everyone has seen it, this is a football game, anything can happen in the game, so, I would say, all this is just a limitation of the game......"

……………

After the game, Chen Long and the others also deliberately paid attention to the situation of the Brazilian team against Honduras, and in the end, there was no accident, Brazil eliminated Honduras and advanced to the semifinals.

For Chen Long, it was unexpectedly that the opponent in the semifinals was the Brazilian Olympic team.

…………

The Brazilian Olympic team is the number one favorite to win the Olympic Games so far, and the Chinese Olympic team is second only to the Brazilian team in the odds given by Spinach, which means that this is definitely a pinnacle matchup.

The other semi-final was played between the Japanese team and the Mexican Olympic team!

The Mexican Olympic team was defeated by the Chinese team in the group stage, and the Japanese team is not afraid of them with the current performance of the national Olympic team. Of the four teams, the two weaker teams got together, and the two strong teams came together.

After the respective opponents in the semifinals were determined, a reporter interviewed Chen Long: Do you have confidence in the Brazilian Olympic team, which is the favorite to meet the champion in the semifinals?

Chen Long smiled: "I want to remind everyone, don't forget, just a year ago, we also defeated the Brazilian team without being favored, I want to say that since we can beat them once, we can beat them again........."

Chen Long's response was very tough, which is different from his usual tone towards the media, of course, everyone doesn't care about this, everyone cares about the content of his response, or determination.

It can be seen that the Chinese Olympic team led by Chen Long met the Brazilian Olympic team in the semifinals, and what they showed was not any fear, but a desire to fight.

This seems to be revealing a signal, or rather, in Huiying, in the context of the times, Chinese football needs more champions, more honors, and more recognition in the field of events to confirm its comprehensive rise.

…………

And for China's semi-final opponent, the Brazilian Olympic team, this game is also very significant.

First of all, of course, to win the final championship, for Brazil, known as the "Kingdom of Football", in their strongest men's football program, they have only won the Olympic men's football championship once in their history, that was in Rio 2016, the Olympic Games, the Brazilians won the coveted Olympic championship on their own doorstep, but they are the only one in the Olympic arena, the harvest, as far as football is concerned, this is indeed a very inglorious history. Not to mention the Brazilians themselves, many foreigners may also find it difficult to understand - why can't the Brazilian Olympic team, which has so many talented players, not win more Olympic men's gold medals?

You know, they've even won the World Cup, the highest honor in senior men's football, five times.

The Olympics are a youth football competition for under-23 years, but in the history of the U20 World Youth Championship, which is a much better proof of the quality of Brazilian football in all age groups, Brazil has also won five championships in the history of the U20 World Youth Championship.

But at the Olympics, they just won't be able to win more gold medals.

Since the Brazilian men's football team participated in the Olympic Games for the first time in 1952, the Brazilian men's football team has won only one Olympic gold medal in the entire 70 years.

Before 1984, professional football players were not allowed to participate in the Olympic Games, so Brazil could not send the strongest team composed of players like Pele and Garrincha to participate in the Olympic Games, and could only form the national Olympic team with domestic second-rate players.

After the Brazilian national team won the World Cup for the first time in 1958, from the 1960 Rome Olympics to the 1972 Munich Olympics, the Brazilian Olympic team was eliminated in the group stage, and in the 1976 Olympic Games, the Brazilian Olympic team reached the top four in the Olympic Games for the first time in history, but in the end did not even win a medal, only won a fourth place......

By 1984, when professional players were finally allowed to participate in the Olympic Games, Brazil held their nerve to show off their football kingdom on the Olympic stage, and they reached the final, coming close to gold for the first time. But it was a pity that they ran into a much stronger French team, which had the "iron triangle of midfield" of Platini, Giresse and Tigana, who had just won the European Championship that year. In the final, the Brazilian Olympic team lost 0:2 to the French team and missed the gold medal.

At the 1988 Seoul Olympics, the Brazilian Olympic team, with such talents as Romario, Bebeto and Tafarel, reached the Olympic final again, but they fought hard with the Soviet team for 120 minutes, lost 1:2, and lost the gold medal again.

After 1992, a major change occurred in Olympic football, that is, Olympic football was no longer an international A-level competition, but a competition for players under the age of 23. Players must be under the age of 23 to participate in the Olympic Games, which has kept the vast majority of mature and high-level professional players out of the Olympic Games. This is the result of a conflict of interests between FIFA and the IOC.

At the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, each team was allowed to have three overage players. This rule continues to this day. Despite all the restrictions, Brazilian football has entered its golden age, and the under-23 national team they can field is still strong. The Brazilian team at that Olympics had Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Bebeto and others. Two years ago, the Brazilian national team won the World Cup in the United States, and everyone thought that the Brazilian Olympic team was the favorite to win gold at the Olympics. However, they lost 0:1 to Japan in the group stage, revealing a big upset at that Olympics. In the end, Brazil made it to the semi-finals, but lost to eventual champions Nigeria in the semi-finals, taking home only one bronze medal.

At the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the Brazilian Olympic team led by coach Luxemberg vowed to win the gold medal, but was eliminated by Cameroon in the quarterfinals without even a medal. Luxenberg, who is the head coach of both the national Olympic team and the national team, was dismissed as the head coach of the two teams by the Brazilian Football Federation on the plane back to Brazil from Sydney......

At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Brazil did not even qualify for the finals. was eliminated in the South American qualifiers, and although the national Olympic team had talented teenagers such as Diego and Robinho, they played often and failed to prove themselves.

At the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the Brazilian Olympic team was also a star-studded team, with Thiago Silva, Marcelo, Ronaldinho, Diego, Pato and other outstanding players. They met the Argentine Olympic team led by Messi and Sergio Aguero in the semi-finals. The rivalry between the South American rivals ended in a victory for the Argentine Olympic team, with Argentina winning the title and Messi taking home his first and only Olympic gold medal. And what about Brazil? Another bronze medal......

Throughout the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, almost every time the Brazilian Olympic team has been aiming for the title, but the final result has been a big disappointment.

The football kingdom has five World Cup winners in its crown, but only the Olympic champions. While the absence of an Olympic champion does not detract from the status of Brazilian football, it can always be a bit of a pity.

All this was not until 2016, at the Brazilians' own doorstep, that is, at the Rio Olympics, led by Neymar, the first person in Brazilian football, Brazil, the men's football team, finally broke the history of Brazilian football without a gold medal in the Olympic Games, and won the coveted first Olympic football gold medal for this powerful football kingdom.

But for Brazil, which has the reputation of being the kingdom of football, one Olympic gold medal is far from enough, it seems to be incompatible with their developed football sport, so Brazilians are eager to have more Olympic gold medals, and in football, in 2020, Brazilians lost again in the Olympic arena.

In this Paris Olympics, the Brazilian Olympic team made a comeback, and they struggled with Mosqueto, Osto, and Redier......... A group of big-name talented players.

Their goal is still to win gold.

And except, gold medals.

For this Brazilian Olympic team. They also have another hidden mission. That is to justify the name of Brazilian football and defend world football, why do you say that? Of course, because of the full rise of Chinese football.

As a traditional powerhouse of world football, Brazilian football is naturally facing the rise of Chinese football and has to make its own response, a response belonging to the football kingdom.

So this game is, to a certain extent, the pinnacle duel between traditional powerhouses and super upstarts.

…………

On August 3, 2024, Beijing time, in Paris, France, the second semi-final of men's football in this Olympic Games officially started two hours after the match between the Chinese Olympic team and the Brazilian Olympic team.

In Paris, outside the gate of the hotel where the Chinese Olympic team stayed, after all the players and coaches boarded the bus, the bus closed the door and drove to the Parc des Princes Stadium, the venue of the match between the Chinese team and the Brazilian team.

Although Chen Long has been in European football for four seasons, he has never played at the Parc des Princes stadium, as he has never played against a French team, especially Paris Saint-Germain, either in Cesena or Milan.

The same can be said of the rest of the Chinese Olympic squad, who have not been able to play Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes Stadium.

Although this stadium is famous, it is a bit unfamiliar to them as players.

Arriving at the Parc des Princes stadium, the players returned to the dressing room after a change, a wait and a warm-up.

When they were warming up, there were a lot of fans in the stands, and they were clearly divided in the stands, the red ones were Chinese fans, and the yellow and green ones were Brazilian fans.

At a cursory glance, there are more fans in Brazil.

This is also normal, after all, the strength of Brazilian football and the stars in the team give them more supporters. These people are not only Brazilians, but there are also fans from other places who are also fans of Brazil.

And China's supporters are only French students and Chinese-funded institutions, and it is already very good to be able to sit in the stands behind the goal.

In fact, in the previous games of the Chinese team, the stadium was never full. The highest attendance was the match against South Korea, and a large part of this was due to the fact that the opponent was South Korea.

The semi-final will hopefully be their first full-house tournament at the Games.

Playing in such an environment is also a test for the young men of the Chinese Olympic team.

In the locker room, the team's head coach Li Tie is making the final mobilization of his players.

With more than ten minutes to go, the two sides are about to play, and he has to fully mobilize the emotions of the players in this short time, just like the first group stage of the Olympic team at the Olympic Games.

First of all, he emphasized the team's tactics: "From the beginning of the game, you must actively grab, whether it is in the front court or in the backfield, you must dare to surround it, and don't worry about the vacancy after the encirclement. As long as you can put pressure on Brazil, they will make mistakes. You can move more when defending, but be careful not to give the opponent a chance to take a free kick directly at the goal in a place that is too dangerous. Nothing else, even though we didn't have a lot of time to prepare for this game, I'm sure everyone is ready. ”

He paused, then pointed to the closet in the locker room and said:

"Take a good look, lads. You are now in the heart of the Parc des Princes Stadium, there is no doubt that this is a great stadium and I hope your game will be just as great.... ”

After Li Tie finished speaking, he didn't say too much, because the team's mood is very good now, and there is no need for him to say too much, saying too much is counterproductive.

After he finished speaking, the second captain Wang Kai slapped his face hard and stood up, and a call sign came out of his mouth: "What is Brazil?" them! ”

More of the team members also clapped their hands and stood up from their seats with a shout in their mouths.

Meanwhile, in Brazil's dressing room, head coach Dunga has said what he wants to say. His last words were: "Lads, enjoy football. Remember, when Brazilians enjoy football, they are invincible! ”

In fact, he is right, if the Brazilian can play football wholeheartedly and devote himself to this enjoyment, it can indeed be said to be invincible. In terms of the Brazilian's footballing talent, this is not a matter of pride.

And the pre-match atmosphere was really relaxed. Brazil are strong and the players are in excellent form in training.

Of course, for the Brazilian Olympic team, their hearts are not really as relaxed as they appear.

Because they understand what kind of opponent they are going to face, their opponent, the Chinese Olympic team, this is a terrible team.

Why is it a terrible word?

The reason is very simple, because in terms of the ability of the two teams, the Chinese Olympic team is not inferior to them, and even their talent is stronger than themselves. And the reason why they can be more favored by the bookmaker is that he is not a five-star Brazil, that is, they are to a certain extent, using the glory of their predecessors to improve their position.

This is among the Chinese Olympic team, and some faces are very familiar to the Brazilian Olympic team, because only a year ago, in the 1/8 finals of the U20 World Cup, the Brazilian international team was defeated by the Chinese national youth team and was eliminated.

So based on this alone, the players of the Brazilian Olympic team will not see their opponent, the Chinese Olympic team. Ignoring Chen Long, Zheng Shaoqiu, or Zou Zhaolong, Guo Haoran, they are all famous and potential players in football today, their personal abilities are the same, very terrible, and will be a big problem for the Brazilian Olympic team in this semi-final.
