At 8pm on July 22, more than half of the 100,000-person seats at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium were filled by Chinese fans. The Chinese in Kuala Lumpur also have a better way to get so many tickets, but only more than 10,000 fans from the South Korean side showed up.

By the quarter-finals, fans from both China and South Korea had thrown Kuala Lumpur into a state of revelry, wearing their respective national uniforms, holding coloured flags, singing one after another, and crowds crowding one after another. But it is clear that the Chinese singing completely suppressed the South Korean fans, not only in terms of numerical superiority, but also in the momentum of unity, and they hope that this time the Chinese team can defeat the South Korean team and change the state of Korean-phobia.

Journalists from all over Asia walked in the crowd, interacting with fans from time to time, and spotting unique fans in the crowd for interviews. Even many journalists from European countries have come to this game, they also know the "grievances" of Chinese and South Korean football in the past 30 years, and they have spared no effort to report this game.

From time to time, fans rushed to the reporter's side to steal the camera, singing the national anthems of both sides or shouting their own slogans. At the moment, everyone is carnivaling from the heart, whether you are a real fan or a pseudo-fan, you can quickly be infected and integrated, this is the charm of football culture!

Players from both sides soon entered the pitch, and the starting lineup of the Chinese team remained unchanged, still in a 4-4-2 formation.

Goalkeeper: Wu Feng

Defenders: Sun Xiang, Li Weifeng, Dewey, Sun Jihai

Midfielders: Zhang Cheng, Zhao Xuri, Mao Jianqing, Zheng Zhi

Forwards: Wang Peng, Qu Bo

After continuous fighting, Dong Fangzhuo and Han Peng are now lacking in physical fitness, so Zhu Guanglu intends to let them play at the last moment of the second half in case they need it.

South Korea, on the other hand, also played in a 4-4-2 formation.

Goalkeeper: Li Yunzai

Defenders: Oh Beom-seok, Kim Jin-gyu, Kang Min-su, Kim Ji-woo

Midfielders: Kim Jung-woo, Kim Doo-hyun, Yeom Ki-hoon, Son Dae-ho

Forwards: Lee Dong Kwok, Lee Cheon so

"Zhang Cheng, Kim Doo-hyun will teach you this game, go and prove it to everyone on the field. You are definitely a world-class midfielder, and A Feng is not the only good player in the young generation of China. Speaking of this, Zhu Guanglu paused: "However, don't focus all your energy on him, you still have to take on the responsibility of receiving Zheng Zhi, and we can't give up the attack." You need to contribute both offense and defense, got it? ”

Zhang Cheng's eyes showed a burst of surprise, which is very rare, the head coach actually compared him to Wu Feng, the absolute core of the team, and handed over this heavy responsibility to Ra.

It is no wonder that among the young players around 87 years old, he is also known to play better, with excellent defense and better organizational skills. Such a player is exactly what is missing in the new generation of the Chinese team, and Zhang Cheng can be said to be the biggest discovery of this Asian Cup.

"I don't need to say anything about this game, as everyone knows, it's tough. But we have to win, not just for yourselves, but also for the fans who put their hopes in you. To tell the truth, I have wanted to defeat South Korea for a long time and take a bad breath for our great China, so I tried my best and didn't leave my hands behind! ”

"I don't ask for anything, attack, just attack! Ah Feng, the goal will be handed over to you, you must defend it, everyone else will give Oh Oh to attack hard, and then attack! It's all about running for labor and management! ”

"Yes, Coach!" The team roared in unison, their hands clenched into fists.

Zhu Guanglu waved his hand, signaled quiet, and continued: "Chinese football should also rise in your generation, and you must take responsibility. Doing so, though, puts a lot of pressure on your shoulders. But how can you mature quickly without being under pressure, South Africa 2010 awaits us. There is also next year's Olympic Games, time waits for no one, take advantage of the present, accumulate more competition experience! ”

As the captain, Zheng Zhi took the lead in standing up and said loudly: "Coach, you can rest assured." Even if we are tired to death, we will die standing and will definitely not lose the face of our Chinese! ”

At this moment, the players of the Chinese team invisibly twisted everyone's hearts into a force, and they stood up and echoed.

Facing the fighting spirit of these disciples, Zhu Guanglu nodded with satisfaction, stood up and said excitedly: "Okay, even if you die, you have to stand for me, this sentence is good." Then what are you waiting for, meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! It doesn't matter who has the last laugh, as long as you play well, you won't disappoint our fans. Play! ”

"When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!" All the players shouted slogans and returned to the field.

"Ah Feng, it's up to you! I must win, my hopes are in you. At this time, Shao Jiayi, who stayed behind, gently said to Wu Feng that his foot injury was just right, but he couldn't play immediately, and he might have to wait until the last game to play.

"Don't worry, Brother Shao. I've been waiting for this match for a long time, and we're waiting for you in the final. Wu Feng smiled lightly, looking very confident.

"CCTV, here CCTV. Good evening, audience. It's 20:25 Beijing time, and in five minutes, the much-anticipated quarter-final match between China and South Korea in the quarterfinals of the 2007 Asian Cup will begin. I am the host Duan Yixuan, and I am the host Liu Jianhong. After Duan Yixuan sat in the right position, he said to the camera in the live broadcast room.

"Hello audience, I'm Liu Jianhong. Now let's cut the scene to the scene, this game attracted a lot of domestic fans to cheer on, and dozens of red drums lined up in front of the stands. The drummers are beating the drums hard, most of these drummers are from eastern Guangdong Province, and the drums are very high-spirited and passionate, representing our greatest hope! Our fans are constantly singing the March of the Volunteers, tirelessly over and over again, fully showing their mental outlook. Liu Jianhong is also extremely excited about the passion shown by the fans.

Although the fans of the Korean team only came more than 10,000 people, they were not inferior to the Chinese, and they also brought several big drums, constantly beating, but the momentum was always less, after all, beating the drum China is authentic.

The moment the two teams stood on the court, countless streamers were thrown down, and a wisp of fresh wind blew them all over the field.

The players of the Chinese team, with their right hands on their chests, raised their heads and sang the national anthem. Every Chinese will be proud that the country has such an anthem, because it is forged in "iron and blood".

It is an immortal myth!

“…… Braving enemy fire, forward, forward, forward! When the Chinese national anthem ended, the stadium reached its first climax, and no matter what Chinese people were, they stood up and cheered.

Then the players of the two countries quickly dodged away and found their positions as quickly as possible.

The fans in the stands also sat down, quieted down, and looked at the whistle in the referee's mouth in unison.
