The efforts of the Dragons paid off in the second minute of stoppage time, when Zhang Wenzhao, who came on as a substitute in the second half, burst into the Japanese penalty area with the ball and was tripped by the Japanese defenders to win a penalty for the Dragons.

This penalty was taken by Yu Dabao, who was also a substitute in the second half, Yu Dabao withstood the pressure and hit the penalty to help the Longguo team regain the score, 3:2!

After that, the score was not rewritten, and although the Dragon Country team experienced some twists and turns, they still won the game as they wished.

In this way, the Dragon Country team won both games in the first two rounds of this East Asian Cup, accumulated 6 points, scored 7 goals and conceded 4 goals, and scored 3 goals, ranking first in the standings.

South Korea and Japan have one win and one loss in the first two rounds, with 3 points, and then both teams have the same number of goals scored and conceded one less for Japan, that is, Japan has one more goal difference than South Korea and is ahead of South Korea in the standings.

The North Korean team lost both games in the first two rounds, and the score was 0:1, and the points were at the bottom.

The Dragon Country team has basically locked the championship of this East Asian Cup, facing the North Korean team in the last round, as long as it draws, it can ensure that the championship is won, even if it loses unexpectedly, as long as it does not lose by more than two goals, it is also very likely to win the championship with a goal difference.

The biggest goal of the Dragon Country Team in this East Asian Cup is to train soldiers, and they did not rush to win the championship at the beginning, but after two rounds of games, the championship trophy is already in front of them.

Although the East Asian Cup is only a small event in East Asia under the jurisdiction of the AFC, it is also an A-level event recognized by FIFA, and at the national team level, it is the third level of competition after the World Cup and the Asian Cup.

Moreover, if the Dragon Team can win the championship trophy of this East Asian Cup, it will also be the first championship trophy won by the Dragon Country Team in the international A-level competition after winning the East Asian Cup in 2010!

This championship trophy is also the first championship trophy of the Dragon Nation team after entering the Lippi era!

After the match against Japan, Lippi expressed strong dissatisfaction with the performance of the players of the Dragon Country in this game, especially after the game entered the 80th minute.

This is a great spur to the players of the Dragon team, if they cannot reverse Lippi's impression of them in the last game, then their prospects of accompanying the team to the World Cup in Russia will be overshadowed.

Therefore, when preparing for the match with the North Korean team, the players of the Dragon Country team showed a 12% attitude and showed a very serious, hard-working and hard-working attitude in training!

Lippi himself, but he has no thoughts about the championship trophy of this East Asian Cup, he is the one who won the World Cup, how can he care about the little East Asian Cup champion?

The reason why after the game with the Japanese team, the players of the Dragon Country team were furious and angry was mainly because of the players' attitude towards the game, and there was a problem!

This problem is an old problem of the Dragon Country team, that is, players often make mistakes by themselves when the situation is good, causing the situation to collapse, the game that should be won is not won, and the game that should not be lost is lost!

In this East Asian Cup, Lippi's goal is to train and inspect the players, the players make some mistakes in the game, and it is acceptable, in the future, in the World Cup, the Dragon Team will still be like this game, due to their own negligence, the original good situation will be in vain, it will be a shame to the people of the world!

Lippi would never allow that to happen!

So from this time on, it is necessary to let the players of the Dragon Country team adapt to his game requirements, as long as the game is not over, he must concentrate on the game, and he cannot ruin the good situation of the game for his own reasons!

Although half of the players in the current Dragon Nation team are only temporarily coming to the national team to experience it, and may not have the opportunity to participate in next year's World Cup in Russia with the team, Lippi is at the helm of the Dragon Nation team, focusing not only on next year's World Cup, but also on the 2019 Asian Cup, and the next World Cup cycle!

At present, in the main lineup of the Dragon Country team, players like Zheng Zhi and Feng Xiaoting, who are over 30 years old, will play one more Asian Cup at most after playing in the World Cup in Russia next year, and will withdraw from the Dragon Country team one after another in the next World Cup cycle.

And the players recruited by Lippi in this East Asian Cup training camp will be the main force of the Dragon Country team in the next World Cup cycle in terms of age structure!

How will the Dragon team perform in the next World Cup cycle, and whether they can reach the World Cup finals for the third time, although the performance of this group of players cannot be regarded as champions, it is also indispensable.

After all, football is a collective sport of eleven people, and there is only one Shen Feng in the Dragon Country team, which is far from enough!

Lippi doesn't require other players to be like Shen Feng, with outstanding strength and peace of mind, but other players can't be pulled too far by Shen Feng.

Especially in terms of will quality and competition attitude, it is the focus of Lippi's strict grasp!

The quality of the will is tenacious and indomitable; The attitude of the game is rigorous and serious, even if the technical and tactical level is slightly worse, Lippi is willing to entrust him with important tasks!

In Lippi's eyes, such an "old scalper" type player is far more useful than those so-called "genius players" who have no talent, but weak willpower, frivolous attitude and selfishness!

Lippi would rather let one Shen Feng lead ten "old scalper"-style players than watch Shen Feng lose his will and fighting spirit in the infighting and internal friction in a group of so-called "talented players"!

In this game with the North Korean team, Lippi made a big adjustment to the starting lineup, and many players who did not perform well in the last game were replaced by other players who were always ready - Lippi didn't give them a chance, they didn't know how to cherish and grasp the opportunity, so they couldn't complain about others!

Shen Feng did not start in this game, but sat on the bench first.

After the start of the game, the new starting lineup of the Dragon Country team launched a fierce attack on the slightly weaker North Korean team's defense and scored first.

In this game, the Dragon Country team completed a total of 13 shots on goal, which was more than four times that of the North Korean team, but only four shots on target, scoring one goal.

Although the North Korean team only had three shots on goal in the whole game, and throughout the game, they were suppressed by the Dragon Country team in the defensive third zone, and the situation was extremely passive, but in the seventieth minute of the second half, they used a quick counterattack to break through the goal of the Dragon Country team!

After the North Korean team equalized, Lippi immediately made continuous personnel adjustments, but did not send Shen Feng at the request of the fans.

The Dragons made substitutions and made the offense more threatening, but the efficiency was still not good, and the whistle blew at the end of the game and did not rewrite the score again.
