In terms of media opinion, China and South Korea are-for-tat.

Find a mortal enemy for the Chinese team in the world, and the South Korean team is likely to rank first with high votes.

Among them, there are national contradictions, as well as the Chinese team's record.

The Chinese team is considered to have 'Koreanophobia'.

Koreanophobia is a term coined by a reporter to refer to a "disease" of the Chinese team's fear of the South Korean team, and it is a word that makes the majority of Chinese fans feel painful, heartbroken, and painful.

On December 16, 1978, at the Asian Games in Bangkok, Thailand, the Chinese team lost 0-1 to South Korea, and since then, the Chinese team has never defeated the South Korean team in the international A-level competition.

This kind of winless record for decades will also make the game full of gunpowder.

When China and South Korea are about to play a match, the media of both sides will also be on the same page, in the past, the confidence of the Chinese media was not very sufficient, and the failure has always made them really unable to lift their spirits for the national football game.

Now it's different.

Zhen Shaolong returned to join the national team, and he is also sure to start in the game, with the star who led the Chinese team to win the Olympic championship and whose value and salary are 'the world's first' joined, the strength of the Chinese team will definitely rise to a notch, at least the forward goal will definitely be no problem.

Such a Chinese team has a much better chance of beating South Korea.

Chinese media and fans began to expect the Chinese team to win, and the media and public opinion hyped the game very hot, even if it was just a warm-up game, there were hundreds of millions of people in China, many of whom did not even pay attention to football, it was entirely because of Zhen Shaolong's fame that they knew that there was a game of the Chinese team.

The public opinion of the media is much more optimistic than before, "This game will be the end of 'Korean-phobia'!" ”

"Zhen Shaolong's performance will become the key to victory!"

"We have to see what kind of changes Zhen Shaolong will bring to the national football team, and now Duisevic's national football team has recruited many young internationals to participate in the Olympic Games, and they also have a certain tacit understanding with Zhen Shaolong."

"This will be a morale game, and it will also be the beginning of the rise of the national football team!"

The other side.

The South Korean media are as optimistic as ever.

South Korea has not lost to China for more than 30 consecutive years, and their mentality is naturally very good, even if the Chinese team has Zhen Shaolong, but the Korean media does not think that a player can change a whole team.

"Zhen Shaolong is indeed a very good star, but we also have Manchester United star Park Ji-sung!"

"One star can't change anything!"

"The Chinese team wants to rely on Zhen Shaolong to defeat South Korea, which is a wrong approach in itself, the South Korean team is not afraid of the opponent having stars, even if it is a game against a strong team in Europe, the South Korean team can work hard!"

South Korea coach Heo Ding-mao also sees it this way.

Heo Ding-mao is a famous football coach from South Korea, in his playing career, played in any position except goalkeeper, and participated in the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, Heo Ding-mao has a brilliant experience as a player, in addition to playing for the national team from 1974 to 1986, he also joined the Dutch powerhouse Eindhoven in the early 80s of the 20th century, and has performed quite well.

The experience in the Netherlands, the birthplace of all-out attack and defense, had a great influence on Xu Dingmao's future coaching philosophy. Since the beginning of his coaching career, he has promoted active attacking football with an emphasis on holistic coordination.

Heo started his coaching career in 1990 and was the coach of Pohang Steelers from 1993 to 1995 and Jeonnam from 1996 to 1998.

From 1998 to 2000, Heo Ding-mao coached the South Korean national team for more than two years.

He then coached Jeonnam Cheonryong FC for 7 years, and in 2005 he led Jeonnam Cheonryong to win the Suwon Samsung Football Club for the second time, and on December 7, 2007, Heo Dingmao was reappointed as the head coach of the national team by the Korean Football Association, and will coach until the end of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Heo Jeong-mo's return to the South Korean national team ended the seven-year history of the Korean national team having a foreigner as the head coach since Heos-Hiddink.

So far, his biggest contribution is to lead the team to the World Cup in South Africa, and the South Korean team ranked Saudi Arabia and Iran in the group stage, and advanced to the World Cup in advance, especially in the 1-1 draw with Iran away, which is considered to be inseparable from the superb team experience.

A local veteran whose ability is recognized, his interview and speech are naturally very concerned.

At the South Korean team's press conference the night before the game, Heo Ding-mao said of the game, "The key point of the game is whether we can play to the advantage and play more fluid. ”

"It's about us, not about the opponent!"

"I always say this to the players, don't think about what stars the Chinese team has, what we have to do is to play ourselves well!"

Xu Dingmao's statement is actually reasonable.

When the game is about to start, there is no point in thinking about the opponent, the key is to play well to be able to control the outcome of the game.

But Xu Dingmao is considered to be 'arrogant'.

The Chinese media commented on this, the Japanese media commented on it, and the media in other Asian countries and even around the world who paid attention to the game commented like this, mainly because Xu Dingmao's speech did not mention Zhen Shaolong at all.

In the competition with Zhen Shaolong participating, is it normal not to talk about Zhen Shaolong?

Answer: Not normal.

Even the top European giants club, when playing against Zhen Shaolong's team, the head coach will more or less talk about Zhen Shaolong, talk about the restrictions on Zhen Shaolong, or what is the way to deal with it, Xu Dingmao staggered Zhen Shaolong and didn't talk about it, which was considered 'too arrogant'.

South Korea is a strong team in Asia, but what does it count in the world? Compared with the top European giants, the South Korean team is nothing at all, and their head coach dares to ignore Zhen Shaolong?

A large number of media outlets began to bombard with criticism.

The players of the South Korean team will also pay attention to the news in the media, but they pay attention to the reports of the South Korean media, and are not interested in the Chinese media and the world media at all, especially the reports of neighboring countries such as China and Japan.

The reason is simple: there are no good reports from neighboring countries.

South Korea is a very strange country, and the strangest thing is that they have a bad relationship with their neighbors, or even when they say that they have no good relationship, such as China, Japan, North Korea, and Russia, as long as they are neighbors, they have no good relations, and they can even be said to be hostile relations, so bad that they are about to use force.

The South Korean players are also only paying attention to domestic reports, and they are also optimistic about the game.

"We're going to win!"

"It's easy to play in China, I've won twice with the team!"

"Don't worry, it's nothing even away! No matter how powerful Zhen Shaolong is, he is just one person, we just need to do a good job of defense! ”

“……”

The only player in the team who is not too optimistic is Park Ji-sung.

If you talk about understanding Zhen Shaolong, other South Korean teammates, including head coach Xu Dingmao, are not as good as Park Ji-sung alone, because Park Ji-sung plays for Manchester United club, and in two seasons, Manchester United and Newcastle United have played many times, and he and Zhen Shaolong have faced each other many times.

Outcome...... It's bleak.

When playing against Newcastle United, the whole Manchester United discussed how to restrict Zhen Shaolong, but the South Korean team rarely talked about Zhen Shaolong, and only treated the other party as an ordinary star.

This kind of attention is dangerous!

Park Ji-sung realized the danger, he reminded the team a few times, and talked to Heo Ding-mao alone, everyone was very optimistic and didn't care too much.

He was also helpless.

In fact, Xu Dingmao will of course attach importance to Zhen Shaolong, he knows how terrifying Zhen Shaolong's performance is, but no matter how terrifying the other party is, the South Korean team can only play normally, in addition, the Chinese team's results are really poor, he led South Korea and the Chinese team to play several games, and I feel that the strength of the Korean team is completely dominant.

How much can a Zhen Shaolong change?

As long as you pay attention to Zhen Shaolong's defense and firmly control the initiative of the game, the Chinese team is not Newcastle United, Zhen Shaolong does not have so many strong teammates, and it is not easy to play well.

On the Chinese side.

The night before the game, the coaching staff arranged for the players to rest normally, and Dujšević organized a tactical session for the whole team, also for tomorrow's game, but it did not take up much time, only about 20 minutes.

After that, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Zhen Shaolong was assigned a room alone, which can be regarded as a special treatment in the team, in fact, it cannot be completely regarded as special treatment, the manager of the hotel took special care of Zhen Shaolong, and also gave him a presidential suite, three waiters circled around him, but he still decided to live in the same room as everyone else.

"It's all in one team, I can't be special!"

Zhen Shaolong's approach made other teammates full of goodwill, and they were also very envious, the team booked a hotel not under the Football Association, and each room was charged, but the hotel treated Zhen Shaolong with enthusiasm, even the presidential suite was free to live, and the attitude towards other people was like an ordinary guest, which was really incomparable.

Zhen Shaolong lives in a room alone, but it is not very quiet, and there are always teammates who come to talk to him.

Talk about playing for the club.

Talk about world football.

Maybe just talk about tomorrow's game.

Zhen Shaolong couldn't refuse the enthusiasm of his teammates, and talked casually with his teammates before going to bed at night, and when he talked about the South Korean team with his teammate Hao Lin, he found that Hao Lin was still a little nervous, because Hao Lin was the starter tomorrow.

Dujshevic arranged Hao Lin to start, obviously considering that Hao Lin and Zhen Shaolong are both from the National Olympic team, and there is a certain tacit understanding in cooperation.

Another striker, Cao Tianbao, the top scorer of the Chinese Super League this season, can only sit on the bench regrettably.

It was normal for Hao Lin to feel nervous.

When Hao Lin participated in the Olympic Games, he was not famous at all in China, but he was directly recruited into the national team, and he had always been a substitute for the striker, and he was suddenly selected as a starter in this game, and the opponent was still the strong South Korean team.

The game is sure to be followed by hundreds of millions of fans.

Hao Lin came to Zhen Shaolong to talk about the game, and saw some confidence from Zhen Shaolong, let Zhen Shaolong point out how to play, hoping to perform better tomorrow, Zhen Shaolong persuaded a few words, "Don't worry", "Just perform normally", "The Korean team is nothing special", "Don't think about the fans" and the like, but it doesn't seem to be of much use, he simply said, "You remember a sentence in tomorrow's game, 'If you have the ball, find my position', and if there is a gap, it will be passed over immediately!" Don't worry, that's all there is to it. ”

Hao Lin nodded unconfidently.

At this time, the system prompt suddenly rang, "Prompt: A new system task has been triggered."

South Korea coach Heo Ding-mao believes that the key to winning or losing the game is the performance of the Korean team, and the South Korean team is also very confident in the game, and even in the defense.

You need to lead the Chinese team to a big win over South Korea.

Objective: Defeat South Korea by three or more goals.

(During the mission, you will receive special effects for the match.)

When your opponent successfully defends against you, you'll accumulate an active 'Passive Possession' effect that lasts for two seconds, causing the ball to change position in response to your movements, and when the effect ends, the ball will return to your feet.

The 'Passive Control' effect can be accumulated three times or released consecutively. ）

Reward: Increases the appearance index a little. ”

Zhen Shaolong looked at Hao Lin with a smile, his concentration had been transferred to the task, and after almost understanding the task, he suddenly became more confident, and said to Hao Lin very seriously, "Listen to me, yes!" ”

"Pass the ball!"

"Pass it to me as soon as you get the ball, don't worry about anything else, I promise you're going to do really well."

"...... so?" Hao Lin was still a little unsure.

"What else do you want, I'll tell you the way, don't worry!" Zhen Shaolong said with great certainty that it is really not easy to make a nervous guy not nervous.

"Okay, Brother Zhen, I'll listen to you."

Hao Lin took a deep breath and felt a little confident.

Zhen Shaolong was also hesitating how to kick before.

When he was at Newcastle United, his team-mates worked very well together, he knew when to pass the ball and when not to pass it, and he would play with ease.

It's not good for teammates to pass the ball too much.

Because the opponent's defensive intensity is uncertain, the result of passing the ball over may be a continuous wasted opportunity and a continuous steal.

Fewer passes...... Of course.

The main thing is that there is no tacit understanding with the national team teammates, and it may be very embarrassing to pass the ball at the wrong time.

Fortunately, the mission has been activated!

The temporary skill effect of the mission is a 'ball control' ability, the opponent's defense is successful, and the football changes position according to its own movements, which is even better than "Assault", because he does not worry about physical collision with the opponent.

If you can accumulate three effects and use them all in one go, it is equivalent to controlling the soccer ball for six seconds.

Six seconds......

It's enough to rush forward more than 30 meters into the goal!

Therefore, it is very important for teammates to pass the ball continuously, regardless of the success or failure of the opponent's defense, it is good for the temporary skill effect.

Don't worry too much about the competition.

South Korea?

Sorry!

"You're out of luck when you run into me!"

Zhen Shaolong stood in front of the window and looked at it, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and he shook his head depressedly after a long time, "The hazy figure on the ninth floor in the distance has already put on pajamas, why did you close the curtains, alas~"

PS: Commuter pass.
