Chapter 161: Against the Korean team

Such a result surprised many people.

Although the strength of the two teams is evenly matched, in terms of form, the South Korean team is definitely in better shape than the Japanese team.

No one thought that it would be the Japanese team that took the lead in breaking the deadlock on the field.

After taking the lead, Japan played steadily and retreated to their own half of the defense. The South Korean team, which had always had the upper hand on the field, was unable to score for a long time, and entered the second half with a goal behind.

After the start of the second half, the mood of the South Korean team players was obviously a little impatient, and there were many mistakes in the offensive coordination.

In this case, the Japanese team seized the opportunity and stole another goal to rewrite the score to 2-0.

With two goals behind, the head coach of the South Korean team couldn't sit still and changed two people in a row to strengthen the attack. His actions were rewarded soon after, when substitute South Korean striker Park Dae-kang scored twice in five minutes to help South Korea equalise.

After the equalizer, South Korea became more and more courageous, and Japan came on two defenders in succession to stop the decline.

However, neither side scored again in the second half, and the score was finally fixed at 2-2.

In extra time, the two sides still did not score, and in the end they had to rely on penalty shootouts to decide the winner.

In the penalty shootout, South Korean goalkeeper Jung Se On stepped up and saved two penalties from the Japanese team in a row, helping the South Korean team defeat Japan with a penalty score of 3-1.

Such a fierce confrontation was something that no one expected, and no one expected that the South Korean team would win so hard.

The South Korean team won so hard, and the happiest thing is undoubtedly the Chinese media and fans, because in the next game, they will play against the Chinese team.

Compared with the exhaustion of the South Korean team after an overtime, the Chinese team's easy victory over the opponent to wait for work will inevitably increase the chances of victory, and many media and fans have already aimed at the championship.

......

The semi-finals between China and South Korea are about to start.

In the dressing room before the game, Francis was giving a lecture to the players.

'From the first minute you have to pick up the tempo, try to score early and score more. The South Korean players are not physically fit, they have just gone through a difficult game, and what you have to do is to use enough fitness to make them desperate. ”

In the dressing room of the South Korean team, their head coach was saying the same thing.

"We can't match the fitness of the Chinese team, so from the very beginning of the game, we have to try to score so that we can hope to win this game. Once we have scored, we can play counter-attacks and minimise our physical disadvantage. ”

With the same idea in mind, the game officially began.

At the beginning of the game, both managers and players were confused. How did this become a battle of attack?

Less than three minutes into the game, South Korea took advantage of the kick-off opportunity to finish their first shot of the game. The South Korean striker's shot was still quite threatening, and the ball bypassed Xu Yang's hand and flew towards the stands by grazing the door frame, causing an exclamation from the Chinese fans.

Because the Asian Youth Championship was held in Shanghai, the audience was basically Chinese fans, so to speak, the Chinese team is playing at home, and in this case, the Chinese players also want to keep the championship in China.

Even if it's just a paltry Asian Youth Championship.

The South Korean striker's shot sounded the horn of the attack between the two sides throughout the game.

In the 5th minute, Lu Feng hit the goal with a cold kick after passing in the front, and South Korean goalkeeper Jung Sai On reacted very quickly and lifted the ball off the crossbar with one palm.

Lu Feng's shot caused a burst of cheers from the fans. And Lu Feng himself saw that the football did not score, and he also hugged his head in annoyance, and his strength was a little smaller, otherwise, the opponent would not have a chance to pounce.

Corner kick by the Chinese team.

After Lin Hai drove out the corner kick, it was Lu Feng who fought for the top in the middle and pushed the football towards the goal. Fortunately, this time the goalkeeper of the South Korean team, Jung Se On, chose a good position and took the football directly into his arms.

Lu Feng, who failed to score, was very annoyed, and he couldn't grasp the two scoring opportunities in front of him in a row.

Lu Feng kicked the turf hard and scolded in a low voice, and this scene was naturally captured by the camera lens.

"After the start of the game, Lu Feng's performance was quite active, and it was clear that he was in very good shape. However, after failing to score with two shots, Lu Feng's mood was a little impatient, hoping that Lu Feng could adjust his mentality, and with his strength, he would score sooner or later. ”

The commentator of CCAV5 saw this scene of Lu Feng and helped Lu Feng defend him, and his words were also agreed by many fans who watched the live broadcast of the game.

"Come on, Lu Feng, score early."

On Weibo, a fan posted such a Weibo.

Soon, many people followed suit and issued similar Weibo.

In just a few minutes, "Lu Feng Goal" successfully appeared on the hot search on Weibo. At the same time, many people who are not fans also saw this Weibo and went to check the meaning of Weibo and search for who Lu Feng was.

Such a move has directly hyped up the popularity of "Lu Feng's goal", and many big V intellectuals have also begun to write columns on Baidu to praise Lu Feng. Even, before this, they didn't know who Lu Feng was at all.

Lu Feng didn't know what was going on Weibo, after all, no one could take their mobile phones to play football. He only felt that he seemed to be a little bit unlucky today, and every time he almost scored a goal, he always couldn't catch it.

After another long-range shot in front of the big penalty area was denied by the goalpost, Lu Feng grabbed his hair angrily, and he could be sure that his luck today was really very bad.

In stark contrast to Lu Feng's lively chagrin was the South Korean striker, who was barely visible for nearly 10 minutes, except for the opening shot.

There was no way, it was originally an offensive game, but when Lu Feng was in a better state, the Korean players unconsciously slowed down their rhythm and shrank a lot towards their own half.

In such a situation, the South Korean players, as strikers, naturally do not get any goals, let alone performance opportunities.

The head coach of the South Korean team on the sidelines was in a hurry, and in such a situation, where was the offensive battle, it completely became a one-sided crushing of the Chinese team. What's more, in his heart, he also hopes to take the lead in the opening stage.

After all, against Japan, the South Korean players put in too much effort to win, and the fitness problem will definitely be exposed in the second half.

"Press up, press up, as long as you press out to attack, the Chinese team's offense will not be so fierce."

The head coach of the South Korean team roared from the sidelines.
