Chapter 310: Penalty Shootout
The coach is very confident that the players will win, which is the best thing in the game.
Just a few minutes later, the British team took a corner kick on the right side of the front, and in the penalty area, substitute Oh Jae-seok fell to the ground and tackled the ball when the ball touched his arm, and the referee on duty pointed to the penalty spot, and finally gave Oh Jae-seok a yellow card.
The penalty kick was directly hit by Ramsey, and the score returned to a draw, for this conceded goal, Oh Jae-seok looked a little low, and the mentality of self-blame directly affected Oh Jae-seok's state, Bai Canhao was also worried about such a problem, and immediately took Ji Chengyong, Gu Zizhe and others to come forward to appease Oh Jae-seok, don't care about what happened just now, no one will make such a mistake, remember to work hard in the next game.
After calming Oh Jae-seok, a few minutes later, the British team won another penalty, Sinclair sent a through ball in front, Sturridge was hit by Hwang Seok-ho when he crossed it, and this time, Jung Sung-ryong became the hero, he saved Ramsey's second penalty.
The morale of the South Korean team was not affected in any way, and Huang Xihao also stepped forward to hug Zheng Chenglong gratefully, and Zheng Chenglong patted Huang Xihao's shoulder excitedly, saying that the last line of defense was handed over to him to be responsible.
The first half ended in a back-and-forth between the two sides, and after a 15-minute break, the game resumed.
After entering the second half, the pace of the game still did not slow down, and the scrambling action of both sides was a little bigger than in the first half, so that players on both sides were injured, and the South Korean team, Zheng Chenglong, who saved Ramsey's second penalty in the first half, was injured and replaced after another save. England's Richards was also substituted injured.
76 minutes. Intense competition. South Korea had another chance, Baek Chan-ho broke through and raised his foot to shoot, the ball was saved by the goalkeeper, but it was followed by Ji Dong-won who followed into the net, and was about to celebrate, but the goal was declared invalid and offside.
Two minutes later, South Korean defender Kim Young-kwon blocked Great Britain's powerful shot from Dawson. He went straight out with his head, then fell to the ground, and only returned to the field after treatment.
It can be seen that the players of the South Korean team in this game are all determined to fight to the death, and the British team is also determined to advance to the semi-finals, but their will is still a little worse, perhaps because the UK does not have a mandatory military service regulation, and there is no condition that you can be exempted from military service if you get good results.
In the end, in the 10 minutes, both sides had a good chance to score, but in the end they missed the goal.
The end of the regular game, 90 minutes. The two sides stood at 1:1 and went into extra time. The fans on the sidelines cheered louder, and at this time it was just a matter of will, and in South Korea, the sky was getting brighter, and the people watching the game were nervously curled up in a ball, and they were a little afraid to watch the game.
Before the start of overtime
In front of the coach's bench of the South Korean team on the sidelines, Bai Canhao was receiving a massage from the team doctor, looking at Ji Chengyong sitting next to him, Bai Canhao said: "At the beginning, we have to have a surprise attack, I still have the body to sprint, it depends on your passing." ”
Ji Chengyong nodded, looking at Bai Canhao firmly, for this good friend, Ji Chengyong always believes in it, because Bai Canhao will always make the game different.
really
Just 2 minutes into overtime, Kim Young-kwon quickly handed over the ball to Ji Chengyong, who found the gap in the backfield and stuffed it straight through from the middle of the two defenders.
Everyone is praying, supporting South Korea's goal, and supporting Great Britain's prayer that Baek Chan-ho won't copy the goal when he went to work.
Although Bai Canhao's speed has not slowed down, he can also feel that the strength on his feet is slightly insufficient, coupled with the desperate pursuit of the British team's defenders, Bai Canhao's original route with the ball is not the best route, he can only force his feet to push after cutting inside, the ball was saved by the goalkeeper, Ji Dongyuan followed up again, but the header missed the goalpost.
On the British side, Sturridge also had a chance in the second half of extra time, but unfortunately the ball was deflected wide of the goal due to a hasty kick.
After the tense overtime, the score remained at 1:1, and the penalty shootout, which was even more tense than overtime, came.
In fact, at this time, the South Korean team that participated in the men's football competition in London has been unanimously recognized, even if it falls at the feet of the host now, after returning home, they may still receive a reward, they are all fighting hard.
After relaxing their muscles and rehydrating, the 10 players stood shoulder to shoulder on the centre circle line, and the goalkeepers of both sides waited in front of the goal for the penalty shootout to begin.
In the first round, Ramsey and Gu Zizhe hit respectively, in the second round, Klaveley and Hwang Seok-ho also hit respectively, and in the third round, Park Jung-woo and Dawson also hit respectively.
Entering the fourth round, Giggs and Ji Chengyong also kicked the ball into the net respectively.
In the fifth round of the regular penalty shootout, both sides arranged the team's goalscorer, Sturridge on the British side, and Baek Chan-ho with the captain's armband on the South Korean side.
Sturridge took the lead in stepping forward, and after the preparation was over, Sturridge's push was saved by substitute goalkeeper Li Fanyong, and in an instant, the balance of victory and defeat began to tilt, and everyone's attention fell on Bai Canhao, who was the last to come out.
On the way to the penalty spot, Bai Canhao's mind was blank, no one would know how much pressure he had, the fans in England and South Korea held their breath, the huge stadium suddenly became quiet, and this oppressive atmosphere was the most terrifying.
In South Korea, fans in front of the TV are afraid to open their eyes, some hide behind pillows, and some use their bodies to block the TV, just listening to the voice of the anchor.
Girls' Generation dormitory,The girls are resting during the time of the game.,After getting up, I wanted to watch the news for the first time.,It turned out that the game wasn't over yet.,None of them are familiar yet.,Some toothbrushes are still stuffed in their mouths.,With hazy eyes, they gather in the living room and stare at TV.。
What they saw was Bai Canhao, wearing the No. 11 jersey, standing in front of the penalty spot, stretching out his hand to the sky, as if praying, but not praying, Bai Canhao did not have any religious beliefs.
Retracting his gaze, Bai Canhao lowered his head and glanced at the lawn, and bent down to touch his sneakers, the camera kept following Bai Canhao's movements and moved, and those who followed this game saw the difference between Bai Canhao's sneakers at this time, where is there an exclusive text, Bai Canhao touched the text, that sentence I believe in your text.
took a few steps back and glanced at the position of the bottom left corner of the goal, this action was also captured by the British goalkeeper, thinking that Bai Canhao might push the bottom left corner, and he had to fight to save it.
When the whistle sounded, Bai Canhao ran and raised his foot, and the British goalkeeper took the lead in moving and paved towards the lower left corner, only to find that Bai Canhao's action after raising his foot was not pushing, but rubbing.
That's right, like French superstar Zinedine Zidane, Bai Canhao's last penalty chose to hit the middle of the goal, and the focus was still on the spoon kicking method.
"Boom"
The stadium erupted in various cheers, exclamations, regrets at this moment, and even female fans who supported the British team had already cried, Baek Chan-ho did it, and the last penalty hit, after a penalty shootout, the South Korean team finally defeated the host British team with a score of 6:5 to advance to the semi-finals.
