Moreover, this North Korean team has a tenacious style of play, dares to fight, and is good at running, and has always been a difficult opponent. The Chinese team asked the North Korean team as a warm-up opponent in order to find some way to deal with the South Korean team they encountered later.

China's senior team has not defeated the South Korean team for more than 20 years, and it has been said to be Koreanophobia over the years, and then there are Japanese phobia, Thai phobia, and so on.

In this Asian Cup, the Chinese team was divided into a group with Malaysia, Iran, and Qatar, and now they are considered standard score-giving boys in Asia.

If there is no Wu Feng, Zhu Guanglu will at most take the quarterfinals as his goal, and treat this Asian Cup as a trip to Malaysia. However, after having Wu Feng, Zhu Guanglu and his team have some undivided ideas, and their plan is to draw the strong and outstanding Iranian team.

Then against Malaysia and Qatar, go all out to get points, and in this case, qualifying is definitely not a problem. It is even possible to win the group, which will make it easier for them to play against them in the knockout rounds.

The development of football in the DPRK team has not been in line with world football in recent years, but even the whole country has made great progress behind closed doors.

For such a "weak" opponent as the Chinese team, the North Korean team would not have looked down on it. But China has money, and the Football Association used all their expenses and gave them a lot of appearance fees.

Such a good thing is very rare for the team of the North Korean people who are not economically developed, and for this appearance fee, and in order to train the players, the North Korean team still came to Hong Kong to play a warm-up match with the Chinese team.

However, this warm-up match was very intense, and the intensity of it even exceeded that of the official game.

From the first minute, the North Korean team pressed the Chinese team all over the court. They are very disciplined and the warm-up matches are also battles for them.

The North Korean players don't have any showmanship, but they don't hesitate to run and pass the ball when they attack.

In addition, the North Korean players are very mysterious, and the coaches and players of the Chinese team basically have no impression of them. When I waited for the game, I found out that the opponent was actually a group of "masters" who were not weak, and I was stunned. In the first ten minutes, the North Korean team kept shooting five or six shots, and all of them were within the range of the goal frame, if it wasn't for Wu Feng, this would have been scored before the first two goals.

After this week's intensive training, Wu Feng's fingers have healed, and there is no pain from before, and his strength can finally be fully exerted.

Although Wu Feng has encountered a lot of teams, he has really never seen a team like North Korea. They were beaten dizzy for the first ten minutes, and by the time their teammates reacted, the North Korean team had already shot several times, thanks to Wu Feng's 12-point spirit, they saved all their shots.

Facing such a difficult opponent, Zhu Guanglu had a headache, and he originally planned to practice his team's all-attack tactics in this game.

But less than 20 minutes later, the scene was controlled by the North Korean team, and now they can only play defensive football.

However, Zhu Guanglu didn't care much about this, the warm-up game was just to run in the formation and find a suitable tactical play. As long as you can bring these players together, it's a success.

And in recent days, reporters from Qatar and Malaysia have come here to inquire about the enemy's situation, which is actually not a good thing. Therefore, Zhu Guanglu also wanted to take this opportunity to set off a smoke bomb to make the opponents in this group relax their vigilance.

So after being suppressed, Zhu Guanglu signaled the players to continue to play like this, and they don't have to mind winning or losing, this is just a warm-up game.

But Zhang Cheng and Zhu Guanglu still got along for a short time, and the communication between the two was not so tacit, and Zhu Guanglu did not say exactly how to play.

So Zhang Cheng thought that the head coach was not satisfied with this situation, with the defensive ability of the Chinese team, the North Korean team was unlikely to break Wu Feng's goal, what they needed was to attack.

However, even though the North Korean team's attack was very resolute and brave, and they dared to invest their troops, they still failed to break through Wu Feng's ten finger passes.

However, Zhang Cheng has only joined the national team not long ago, and Zhu Guanglu has just played this warm-up game, and now he doubts that the head coach's style of play is not conducive to the unity of the team, so Zhang Cheng still decided to carry out Zhu Guanglu's order.

When Zhang Cheng also played, the process of the game gradually surprised the North Korean team, the Chinese team is not only strong in defense, but also fierce in attack.

After Wu Feng scored the first free kick, the North Korean team panicked, although the attack was more violent, but it was never able to break Wu Feng's goal. In addition, Zhang Cheng's performance is getting better and better, which has led to Zhou Haibin's performance gradually stabilizing.

The overall strength of the Chinese team has finally been fully exerted, although the North Korean team's rapid counterattack is very powerful, but the Chinese team has Zhang Cheng and Wu Feng in the back, the North Korean team's offensive threat is not big for the Chinese team, and the frontcourt players are playing more and more easily.

The game ended up 5:0, Wu Feng shot 4 free kicks and scored 3 goals, and in the warm-up match, Wu Feng scored a magical hat trick for the first time.

The victory of the Chinese team in the first warm-up match made all the Chinese fans ecstatic, and it was a big score to win the game, and the rest of the time except for the beginning of the game, the rest of the time was very confident.

The "Sports Weekly", which has the largest circulation in China, commented that judging from the match against the North Korean team, the Chinese team already has a trace of the shadow of an Asian powerhouse, but they still have a long way to go. The joining of Wu Feng can only strengthen the defense of the national football team, but if you want to become a strong team in Asia, the organization of the national football team must fight and completely remove the burden in your heart.

For this Asian Cup, the positioning of the Chinese team is better to strive to reach the top 8, too high a goal will affect the mentality of the players and increase their psychological burden.

The analogy of "Football Daily" is very ingenious, saying that today's Chinese team has the strongest city wall defense, but the configuration is infantry, and can only rely on defense and counterattack, and has not formed its own unique offensive mode at all.

At present, the players of the Chinese team are simply unable to play half of Wu Feng's power, the defense is more than enough and the offense is insufficient, as far as the three opponents in the group stage of the Asian Cup are concerned, the Chinese team has the ability to fight, that is, Malaysia, and even Qatar may not be able to win, so the group qualification is even more hanging.

After this game, Wu Feng privately found Zhu Guanglu for an all-night long talk, and the two had an in-depth discussion on the current situation and playing style of the Chinese team. Now the team's defense is not weak, with him, the teammates can play more openly, even if they are all attacking, it is not impossible.
