Chapter 128: The Same Threat
Ji Chengyong received a yellow card, which will lead to his automatic suspension for the next game. But after all, this is a matter of the next game, if the South Korean team can't win the Chinese team at all, then naturally there is no need to worry about being suspended for the next game.
The most important thing is that less than 20 minutes after the start of the game, Ji Chengyong, the main defender, was already with a yellow card, which made him play in the next game?
If you eat another yellow card, two yellows turn into one red and you are directly punished, won't it be over?
So for Ji Chengyong, this yellow card is simply playing a game of Monopoly, the character is carrying a time bomb, and every time he rolls the dice, the character will be closer to the result of the explosion.
This will cause him to no longer be able to go all out to defend Gao Zheng in the next games. So that he can become a breakthrough for the Chinese team's offense.
In fact, all this may have been avoided - if Ji Chengyong hadn't stepped on Gao Zheng's foot......
Ji Chengyong may have thought that he could provoke Gao Zheng by provoking him and making the strongest player of the Chinese team lose his cool. But it seems to me that he is just a frenzied temptation on the verge of death. Looking at the results, it is clear that he succeeded in his death. Ha! These words came from Wang Xiang, the commentator of the Sina online live broadcast platform.
The environment of the online live broadcast platform is completely different from that of CCTV, where there is not so much attention to commenting on the game, and you can laugh at the South Korean players to your heart's content, regardless of whether it will cause a diplomatic incident.
So what Wang Xiang said was very bitter and mean.
But many Chinese fans who choose to watch this game online like to listen to such a snarky commentary.
※※※
In the opening 17 minutes, the Chinese team had threatened the South Korean team's goal many times, and even let their captain receive a yellow card.
On the other hand, the South Korean team has no decent offensive at all, and he is also the number one star in the team, and Son Heung-min basically has no performance.
During this time, the Chinese team completely had the upper hand.
The Chinese fans in the stands were also very helpful, constantly singing to boost the morale of the team.
As a result, the South Korean team is very embarrassed.
The captain was completely suppressed under the head-to-head with Gao Zheng, and he was played around by Gao Zheng like a clown.
The morale of the South Korean team suffered a very serious blow.
In the next game, when Gao Zheng got the ball, he was kicked down by Park Joo-ho, another defender of the South Korean team.
It was a foul that didn't play football at all, it was a foul that rushed towards someone.
So the referee showed a yellow card to Park Joo-ho, and Park Joo-ho, who received a yellow card, was still very angry and dissatisfied, if it wasn't for his teammates to pull him, he would have been sent off the field because of his verbal confrontation with the referee......
However, the current result is not much better - the two defenders of the South Korean team in this game have received a yellow card on Gao Zheng early. As an important midfield barrier, this result has every Korean fan on their toll.
Because if the midfield barrier does not work as well as it should, the South Korean defense will be forced to face the Chinese team's offensive directly......

In the twenty-seventh minute of the first half, when Gao Zheng got the ball in the middle, he faced Ji Chengyong again.
After several battles between the two before, everyone can't help but wonder if Gao Zheng deliberately came to trouble Ji Chengyong again when they see this scene.
When Ji Chengyong faced Gao Zheng, he also put on a posture like facing a great enemy, but he did not rush forward quickly.
However, this time Gao Zheng didn't play him anymore, but after attracting Ji Chengyong to his side, he gave the football to Ren Xing, who was inserted on the side.
After Ren Xing took the ball, he crossed directly and looked for Wu Lei in the penalty area.
The football was pushed out by Kim Yingquan, and it flew to the top of Gao Zheng's free throw arc.
Gao Zheng, who was originally going to insert himself into the penalty area, turned around with a sudden stop when he saw this, ready to catch the ball.
Ji Chengyong hesitated, but decided to lean in, keep a reasonable distance from Gao Zheng, and don't let him turn around. He didn't have his hands and feet to stick it on the ground, he was worried that as soon as he had physical contact with Gao Zheng, this Chinese would fall to the ground again, and then he would eat another yellow card, and he would be completely cool in this game......
But he didn't post it for the first time, but Gao Zheng had an opportunity to take advantage of. Ji Chengyong, who was behind Gao Zheng, saw Gao Zheng raise his right foot to bypass the left foot supporting his body, and knocked back the heel of the football that fell to his left!
The football flew past him, but because it was too close and too sudden, he didn't react at all, and could only watch the football jump behind him.
He hurriedly looked back, and then saw a scene that made him a little frightened - the football rushed to the empty place in the penalty area, where there was Wu Lei, the No. 7 striker of the Chinese team, and at the same time, there was not a single Korean player by his side!
He reflexively raised his hand and signaled that the referee and linesman Wu Lei were offside.
But he didn't hear the whistle, and instead there was a huge cheer.
"Gao Zheng! Nice heel pass! Wu Lei!! ”
In the place where Ji Chengyong didn't see it, in fact, there were his teammates standing farther back than Wu Lei, although they all rushed forward after seeing Gao Zheng's pass, but it was too late - at the moment of Gao Zheng's pass, they dragged behind, which caused Wu Lei not to be offside at all. And they are pressing it now, but it gives Wu Lei the opportunity to face goalkeeper Kim Jin-hyun directly!
This is a great one-shot opportunity!
Wu Lei stopped the ball and turned around, and saw the South Korean goalkeeper Kim Jin-hyun who had just abandoned the goal.
Obviously, Kim Jin-hyun didn't expect Gao Zheng to suddenly pass the football to Wu Lei with his heel, and he was not prepared for this.
So now in front of Wu Lei's eyes, there is a huge goal and a goalkeeper who attacks.
Kim Jin-hyun opened his arms, but he couldn't cover the entire goal area.
In Wu Lei's eyes, the goal can be driven when it is empty.
He kicked the ball into the top corner of the far corner.
The football flew past the attacking goalkeeper Kim Jin-hyun, and Kim Jin-hyun couldn't do anything to make a save, but it was too late - the ball had already grazed him and rushed towards the goal!
Then, under the horrified eyes of all the South Korean fans, the football plunged headlong into the net.
"Wu Lei! Wu Lei!! Pretty! The Chinese team took the lead in the 28th minute! Wu Lei took the lead for the Chinese team! 1:0! He Ping and Xu Yang shouted excitedly together.
Ji Chengyong's hand was still raised, but the referee gave a clear "goal is valid" gesture - he pointed to the center circle!
"Wu Lei played this ball beautifully, but the essence of this ball is definitely the ghostly heel pass from Gao Zheng! This pass reminds me of a goal that Guti assisted Zinedine Zidane in Real Madrid back then, almost exactly like this goal! Although Gao Zheng is a center forward, he also has excellent vision and awareness, as well as excellent passing ability, so that even if he is far away from the goal, he can also threaten the opponent's goal! After continuing to put pressure on the South Korean team after the opening, the Chinese team finally took the lead!! ”
