The news that the Chinese team eliminated the United Arab Emirates 4-2 and reached the 16th Asian Cup final was broadcast in the "News Network" that night.

……

Sydney.

The hotel where the Korean team stayed.

The entire South Korean team watched the semi-finals between China and the United Arab Emirates in the hotel conference room.

At this time, the game was over, and the live broadcast could be seen with the Chinese team players and Chinese fans frantically celebrating the victory.

The captain of the South Korean team, Ji Chengyong, gathered all his teammates to form a circle.

"Ladies and gentlemen, glorious moments await us!"

"In the final, let's go all out and defeat Jiang Chenxi!"

Ji Chengyong, the captain of the South Korean team, looked at his teammates and said with a serious expression.

Kim Jin-so (Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga), Park Joo-ho (Mainz in the Bundesliga), Son Heung-min (Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga), Koo Ji-chul (Mainz in the Bundesliga), Lee Qingyong (Bolton in the Premier League), Cha Duri and other players of the South Korean national team also nodded vigorously.

"We use the championship to tell the world that Jiang Chenxi is not invincible!" Ji Chengyong shouted.

"Beat the Chinese team! Defeat Jiang Chenxi! The South Korean players shouted in unison.

"Champion! Champion! Champion! ”

……

For the championship of the Asian Cup with the Chinese team, the enthusiasm of the South Korean media is unprecedentedly high.

The South Koreans are watching this final from all sides.

In many South Korean media reports, they regarded this match as a showdown between South Korea's star Son Heung-min and China's number one star Jiang Chenxi.

If there is no Jiang Chenxi, then South Korea's young star Son Heung-min will be the number one star in this Asian Cup.

Sun Xingmin, who was born in 1992, is less than a month younger than Jiang Chenxi, and they all belong to the 92 generation.

In fact, the 92 generation is now hotly debated in football, and the stars born in 92 are compared to the most famous 76 generation in football.

The year 1976 was a golden generation of football's recognized talent explosion, with Shepchenko, Ballack, Totti, Nesta, Seedorf, Guti, Kluivert, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Patrick Vieira, Giuli, Morientes and, of course, Ronaldo forever.

German football emperor Beckenbauer once said that there can never be such a glory as the 76 generation.

……

However, later the 85 generation also made people crazy, Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney are the representatives of the 85 generation, the 85 generation is a general reference, including Kaka in 82 and, of course, Messi in 87.

The 85 generation has not yet grown old, and now, the 92 generation is beginning to enter people's sights.

Neymar, Isco, Carvajal, Thibaut Courtois, Lucas, Verratti and, of course, the new World Footballer of the Year Jiang Chenxi.

Of course, among the representative stars of the 92 generation discharged by the Koreans, Son Heung-min is impressively listed.

Son Heung-min began his football career at a very young age, and in 2007, at the age of 15, he entered the academy of Seoul FC. At the age of 16, in 2008, Son Xingmin began his career in foreign countries, receiving three years of training in the youth academy of Hamburg Football Club in Germany.

In 2008, Jiang Chenxi had just joined the Inter Milan youth team.

In 2010, Son Xingmin officially started his career and signed a professional contract with the German team Hamburg, at which time he was worth only 500,000 euros!

At this time, Jiang Chenxi's career was gloomy because of a serious injury, and he had disappeared from people's sight.

And in this summer's warm-up game, Son Xingmin proved himself. Scored 9 goals in 9 games and became the team's top scorer. And the battle with Chelsea and the goal of the killer made him famous!

On October 30, 2010, Sun Xingmin, who was only 18 years old, ushered in his debut in the Bundesliga, he opened his road to supergod with a goal, and this goal also allowed Son Xingmin to break the record of the youngest Bundesliga goal in the dust for 39 years! Due to his outstanding performance, the Hamburg team immediately decided to renew the contract of Son Heung-min until 2014. In three seasons at Hamburg, Son scored 20 goals and provided three assists.

At this time, Jiang Chenxi started again from the Foggia team of the Italian Third Division, and in 2014, he led Dortmund to win the UEFA Champions League and stood at the top of Europe!

……

Before his contract with Hamburg expired, Son Heung-min was spotted by another Bundesliga powerhouse, Bayer Leverkusen. This time, Bayer Leverkusen spent a transfer fee of 10 million euros in order to sign him, and this also set a record transfer fee in Leverkusen's history. In the 2013-14 season, Son made 31 appearances for Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, scoring 10 goals and providing four assists. 4 appearances in the German Cup, 2 goals and 1 assist; Eight appearances and two assists in the UEFA Champions League.

Especially in the Champions League this season, Son Xingmin shined, Leverkusen defeated the Danish champion Copenhagen 7-2 in the Champions League qualifying round, Son Xingmin scored a goal in each of the two legs, and in the group stage, Son Xingmin scored three goals, including Leverkusen's 2-0 away victory over the Russian Premier League giants Zenit St. Petersburg, Son Xingmin scored twice, counting the qualifying games, Son Xingmin scored five goals in eight games in the Champions League, and his performance was extremely dazzling.

The South Korean media have always compared Sun Xingmin with Jiang Chenxi, and in their opinion, Sun Xingmin is no worse than Jiang Chenxi.

It's a pity that although Sun Xingmin is indeed very good, he still can't compare with Jiang Chenxi's achievements.

The European champion was honored in the past, and now he is the world footballer of the year.

Koreans are envious, jealous and hateful.

Well, it is said that there are already Korean historians studying and trying to find evidence that Jiang Chenxi's ancestors were Korean......

The glory of the world footballer is ahead, and the South Koreans are unwilling and helpless, but now that they meet the Chinese team in the Asian Cup final, the Koreans see hope.

South Korean media bluntly said that there is still suspense about whether Asia's No. 1 star is the seat, and as long as Son Xingmin can lead the South Korean team to defeat Jiang Chenxi in the Asian Cup final, it will be able to prove that Son Heung-min is the real No. 1 Asian star.

This kind of standard of judgment is really laughable, but Koreans recognize this truth.

……

South Korea has entered the rhythm of the Asian Cup final.

In fact, the Korean team is very excited to meet the Chinese team in the final.

They were eager to face off against Jiang Chenxi.

If you only compare the strength of the stars, Jiang Chenxi will definitely blow up all the players in the South Korean team.

Jiang Chenxi's honors in European football are unmatched by all the current tourist players of the South Korean team combined.

The honor of World Footballer of the Year is an unclimbable mountain.

However, football is a sport as a whole, not a comparison of individual players.

In the eyes of Koreans, in terms of overall strength, the Korean team is definitely above the Chinese team, even if the Chinese team has Jiang Chenxi!

Because of the grievances between China and South Korea, South Korean players have always wanted to challenge Jiang Chenxi, and they want to prove that the Chinese team has Jiang Chenxi, and they can still win!

And now, in this Asian Cup final, they feel that the opportunity has come!

They believe that with the excellent overall strength of the Korean team, it is completely possible to *** Dawn.

Being able to defeat the world footballer of the year Jiang Chenxi has now become a common wish and goal including South Korean internationals such as Son Heung-min and Ji Chengyong.

'Defeat Jiang Chenxi!' ’

"Win the Asian Championship!"

Koreans put up such a sign in the conference room of the hotel where they are staying!
