Yang Hao's preparation schedule is very different from that of other national teams.

It's not just the number of warm-up matches and opponents, but more importantly, the itinerary of the Spanish national team.

When Spain played three warm-up matches, other national teams participating in the World Cup finals had already arrived in South Africa one after another.

Even Spain's warm-up opponent, Paraguay, flew from Barcelona to South Africa the day after the game.

Only the Spanish national team.

After playing, he returned to Madrid from Barcelona to continue his preparations at Las Salos Sports City.

Yang Hao and the coaching staff are not untargeted.

With the experience of last year's Confederations Cup, plus La Liga teams, especially Atletico Madrid, a series of warm-up matches and pre-season games in South Africa, have accumulated a wealth of experience.

They know how to cope with the next fixtures.

Although, the record of one win and two draws in the three warm-up matches is very different from Spain, which has always been a breakthrough, which makes many people worry that the big game is imminent, and the Spanish internationals will be affected by La Liga and are not in good shape.

But this still does not detract from the outside world's optimism about Spain.

The three major bookmakers have all offered odds, and Spain are the veritable favourites to win the title.

And among the many big teams, who is the most likely to be Spain's opponent?

The answer is, Brazil and England.

In the final odds offered by William Hill, Brazil is 12 to 1 against Spain and England is 13 to 1 against Spain.

Further back, Brazil vs. Argentina is odds of 1 to 21, which is a huge difference from the previous two games.

That said, almost everyone is optimistic that Spain will reach the final.

The only difference is whether the opponent is Brazil or England.

And the reason why there are no odds for the final between Brazil and England is that in the schedule, the two teams will meet early and will not wait until the final at all.

Football emperor Beckenbauer arrived in Johannesburg, South Africa, to prepare for the opening ceremony.

At a press conference at the World Cup, he made a high-profile statement of optimism about Spain.

"Yang Hao's coaching has changed Spain's temperament."

"From the current Spanish team, we see a completely different temperament from traditional Spain."

"That's a kind of strong man, a powerful temperament that sublimates from the original traditional foundation."

Beckenbauer said that an important reason for his optimism about Spain is that the age distribution of the Spanish national team is very good, with both golden players and a group of impactful young players.

"What's more, in the past few years, this group of Spanish internationals has been tempered by La Liga powerhouses such as Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Valencia, although they are not very old, they have played many major games and have a very good psychological quality."

Beckenbauer also mentioned another point, that is, Yang Hao's emphasis on the psychology of players.

"Last year, during the Confederations Cup, I went to visit the Spanish residency, and I talked to Yang Hao about a lot of things, and he introduced two psychologists from Atletico Madrid.

"Since Yang Hao coached the Spanish national team, these two psychologists have followed the Spanish internationals throughout the whole process, and they know this group of internationals very well and know how to comfort and motivate them."

"In the past, we all said that Spain looked strong but had a fragile mentality, but now we find that Spain has completely said goodbye to the past, and they are not only playing offensive football that is pleasing to the eye, but also very mentally strong."

Who will be Spain's number one rival?

Beckenbauer chose Brazil.

"Brazil have superstars such as Kaka, Adriano, Alves, etc., and this group of talented players brings a lot of attacking power and creativity to Brazil, and if they meet Spain in the final, it will be a dream matchup."

As for Argentina, Beckenbauer said he was not very bullish.

"Messi is the most high-profile superstar on the planet, and I have always believed that the rules of football should be tilted and cared for by talented players like Messi and Kaka."

"It's unfair to their opponents?"

'Yes, it does, but it's good for football.'

"We need to protect these talented players in terms of rules because they are the key drivers of football."

Beckenbauer elaborated on a logic: the development of football is inseparable from the fans, and the fans are always chasing the superstars.

From ancient times to the present, every change in the rules of football is inseparable from the promotion of superstars.

In the eighties and nineties where Van Basten, Ronaldo and others lived, the foul scale can be described as cruel for today's football, so these two super geniuses fell early.

"It's a loss for world football!"

Standing at FIFA and at the height of the development of the football industry, Beckenbauer believes that the current rule is to protect technical football and protect this kind of offensive football with a wonderful style of play.

As for whether it's fair or not......

"It's a misconception that fans have about professional football."

"Professional football is essentially a show that pleases the fans, and without the fans, it's nothing."

"It's like the big stars, it's like the big clubs, it's the same with the World Cup!"

Beckenbauer's remarks caused a huge response.

Many people questioned the intent of his remarks, feeling that the rules were biased in favor of geniuses, which was unfair.

But from the perspective of the football industry, no one likes to watch mediocre games, all fans love superstars.

The difference is only in which superstar they prefer.

That's why the Madrid derby between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid can quickly become the hottest pinnacle matchup in the world!

Many people even say that the heat of this game is comparable to that of the Champions League final.

Why?

There are so many superstars!

Beckenbauer's appeal is not only to affirm Loew's transformation of the German national team over the years, but also to praise the attacking football that teams such as Spain and Atletico Madrid have insisted on.

Also at this press conference, many celebrities also expressed their opinions.

Among them, there was an incident that made Yang Hao almost not collapse.

That is, when he said his favorite team, Pele's crow's mouth actually said Spain, not Brazil.

This is simply outrageous!

As soon as the press conference ended, the Spanish media and fans were on pins and needles.

Being favored by others is originally a good thing.

Except for Bailey.

Everyone knows that the team that Pele is optimistic about is basically out of order.

The British media praised and cheered for Pele, believing that the "hand-picking" of the football king was comparable to that of Paul the octopus.

The whole world knows that Paul the Octopus is notoriously accurate, but what about Pele?

Milk who, who dies!

Yang Hao really wanted to shout to Bailey: His Royal Highness the Ball King, please, stay away from me!

The Brazilian media questioned Pele's remarks, believing that Spain would have a more difficult schedule and would have a hard time reaching the final.

Even, it is not ruled out that the curse of the World Cup fever will be reproduced and folded in the group stage.

Why?

Judging from the past results, Spain has not performed very well in the World Cup, while South Korea and Switzerland are all strong, and Chile has performed quite well in South America under the tutelage of Bielsa.

In this case, it is doubtful whether Spain can enter the knockout round.

The head coach of the Brazilian national team, Dunga, also said in an interview with media reporters in Johannesburg: The Brazilian national team is ready to avenge last year's Confederations Cup in South Africa!

"Our current situation is very similar to the Brazil team in 1994, with a lot of discipline and a lot of consistency.

"In the past, Brazil has always been the most competitive team in the World Cup."

But Arsene Wenger, who was a special guest of FIFA, also came to South Africa, and he said in an interview with media reporters that Spain are the biggest favourites.

"Brazil are very strong, but they are far inferior to Spain in terms of midfield control, and that is their biggest shortcoming."

Wenger also pointed out that Dunga is good at building defensively, but when it comes to attacking and creativity, he clearly falls short.

"The facts tell us over and over again that the trends in world football have changed dramatically and that it is difficult for a team that lacks creativity to have the last laugh."

"It's not enough for Brazil to have Kaka and Adriano, they need more stars."

There are also many professionals who point out that Brazil is characterized by a balanced attack and defense, which is relatively comprehensive.

'Spain's attack is really good, but they are lacking in defence and if you play against a team that is very good defensively, when they can't open up the situation, it's very dangerous.

In fact, not only in football, but also outside the circle, almost everyone sees Brazil as Spain's number one opponent.

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio

Subsequently, in an interview with Brazilian media, Lula even said that he "declared war" on Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero in person during a meeting.

"I told him that Spain are the best team in the world right now, but they don't have a World Cup tradition, so Brazil will win the World Cup!"

After Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Luiz Inácio Luiz Inácio Lula's public "provocation" in the media, Zapatero also confirmed the incident in a subsequent interview with Spanish media, but it was only a joke between the two national leaders.

"But I told Lula clearly that we are the greatest team in football today, the strongest national team in the history of Spain, and we have the best managers and players in the world."

"I have told my colleagues to prepare their trip to Johannesburg for the World Cup final in advance and to see Spain win in South Africa with my own eyes!"

The World Cup is about to start, and the major football associations have also started with huge rewards.

The first to bear the brunt is the Spanish Football Federation.

In the past few years, La Liga has been extremely strong, sweeping the entire European football scene, and the broadcast fee has been rising.

The Spanish Football Association has also made a lot of money because of this, and now that La Liga is strong, the Spanish Football Federation also hopes that the national team can perform better, so it has offered a huge prize money for winning the championship.

If the team can win the title, each player will receive a huge prize of 1 million euros.

This is the heaviest reward offered by the 32 teams in this World Cup!

Everyone also felt that Spain was now wealthy.

Brazil was not far behind, offering a prize of $1 million, second only to Spain.

The reason why both national teams can offer such amazing rewards is actually inseparable from the support of sponsors.

For example, the Brazilian media broke the news that the Brazilian national team went to South Africa with the support of 10 sponsors, and the sponsorship amount was as high as 220 million US dollars.

The Spanish national team is even more impressive.

The specific amount is unknown, but judging from the sponsorship list released by the Spanish Football Federation, there are as many as 16 sponsors of the Spanish national team, and the total sponsorship amount is said to exceed 300 million euros.

In this case, it seems that it is not a big problem to come up with more than 20 million euros in prize money for the championship.

Of course, such sponsorships are often not just for the World Cup, but for years-long sponsorship contracts.

Not only is the prize money offered different for each team, but even within the same team, the prize money offered is very different.

If teams such as Spain, Brazil, France and Germany have adopted a strategy of equality for all, allowing all players, regardless of the main force and substitutes, to share the prize money equally, then England's wonder caused internal chaos before the World Cup.

I don't know which genius big baby, when designing the bonus system for the England national team, he adopted a different way of treating the main team and the substitute.

The main team can get 400,000 pounds, and the substitutes are pitiful, and they don't even dare to disclose the detailed amount.

This is outrageous.

According to British media reports, after the England national team announced the bonus system, the substitute players in the team expressed strong indignation, and even two or three players almost quit the national team on the spot.

Serving the country is a privilege, but in the face of such a distinction, many people cannot accept it.

Of course, Spain's prize money system is not just about winning the championship.

In the reward system designed by Yang Hao, 600,000 euros is the total income, in fact, the Spanish national team will get corresponding rewards for every step forward in the World Cup.

For example, how much you get to advance to the group stage, how much to get to the quarterfinals, how much to get to the semifinals, and how much to get to the finals......

In the end, once they win the championship, all the prize money will add up to 600,000 euros each.

This can be said to have ignited a strong fighting spirit among the players within the Spanish national team.

If you can serve your country and get a bonus, why not?

……

When the other 31 teams participating in the World Cup finals have arrived in South Africa one after another, Yang Hao also led the team to make final preparations in Las Rozas Sports City.

The team did not quietly arrive in Johannesburg until June 11, the day of the opening ceremony of the World Cup.

Spain is not the host, and the opening ceremony is meaningless for Spain.

But the media and fans outside are already starting to pay attention to Spain's itinerary.

After all, all the other teams have arrived.

Before the team left, Yang Hao had a day of recovery and adjustment on the second day after playing Paraguay, and on June 10, the whole team was given a holiday to let everyone go home.

This is also advice from a psychiatrist.

Since the end of the league, the team has been training intensively, and it is necessary to relax before the decisive battle.

On the 11th, Spain took a special plane from Madrid to Johannesburg, the capital of South Africa.

However, the team did not have a presence in Johannesburg.

Most of the participating teams set up their World Cup base camp in Johannesburg or a satellite city around the capital, but Spain has set up their base camp during the World Cup in the more remote town of Potchefstrom.

It is a small city located 120 kilometers from Johannesburg, and is best known for its North-West University in South Africa.

When Yang Hao led Atletico Madrid for training, whether it was in the United States or Australia, he often chose to train in the stadium of the university, and this time was no exception.

European teams such as France have chosen to stay in five-star hotels in Johannesburg's affluent district, while Spain have moved directly to the campus of Northwestern University.

After last year's Confederations Cup, the Spanish Football Federation did a very meaningful thing, which was to donate to Northwest University to repair one of the small buildings and turn it into the current residence of the Spanish national team.

By the time the team arrived, the old building had been turned into a Spanish base camp and a dormitory for the players.

The team rented the stadium and sports center of Northwestern University, all kinds of instruments and equipment were moved in, and the coaching staff, experts and staff were already moved in and prepared.

As soon as the Spanish national team arrived, the final sprint to the World Cup began.

Accustomed to living in a bustling five-star hotel, the players suddenly chose a quiet university campus, and the players did experience a very different kind of comfort.

What's more, it's away from the hustle and bustle of the media and fans.

This is the same as the European Cup 2 years ago, Yang Hao chose a remote town as the base camp.

To put it bluntly, living in the middle of the city, it is difficult for players to calm down.

Moreover, donating such a sum of money to the University of South Africa and renovating such a building is also a good talk.

On the afternoon of the team's arrival in Johannesburg, before the World Cup opening ceremony, Yang Hao held the first press conference after the team's arrival in South Africa in the auditorium of Northwestern University.

The media still has some opinions about Spain's belated arrival.

After all, without Yang Hao and his Spain, South Africa also has a lot less news.

Yang Hao jokingly said that he hoped to come later and leave later.

Seriously, Yang Hao said that the team has been preparing in Madrid.

'I've seen some reports in the last few days and a lot of teams are worried about whether players will be out due to injury, but in Spain we don't have that concern.

"I can proudly tell all the fans who care about Spain that we have zero injuries in the team at the moment!"

When Yang Hao announced this matter with a smiling expression and a proud tone, everyone in the audience was in an uproar.

No injuries?

It's incredible!

Of course, when Yang Hao said zero injuries, he does not mean that everyone in the team is very healthy.

That's impossible.

What he means is that no one is going to be affected by an injury.

This is the only one of the 32 teams that participated!

The media reporters at the scene didn't expect that when they first arrived, Yang Hao directly gave them such a big surprise.

Everyone immediately asked Yang Hao's secret.

The answer given by Yang Hao is, prepare for war scientifically!

All the media laughed wryly.

To say this is to say nothing.

For Spain's World Cup journey, Yang Hao expressed cautious optimism.

"What I want to say is that you can't win the World Cup just by shouting slogans and fighting with words."

"I've always told my players that in a big tournament like this, every game has to be played as a final, and you have to be 100 per cent focused and committed."

"A lot of people say we're the big hits, but I don't think so."

'I think there are several teams that have the quality of the Champions League and we are one of them.

"If we want to translate the optimism of the outside world and the desire of the heart into reality, then we have to do our best to win every game."

Yang Hao said that the team's current state is really good.

"We didn't do well in the warm-up games, which was actually within our expectations, it was three warm-up games for the World Cup finals, and we didn't care about the win or defeat at all."

'What we really need to show is in South Africa, not elsewhere.'

Yang Hao also talked about the current expectations of the national team in Spain, "This is pressure, but it is also motivation. ”

"I think that's a good thing for us."

"Before, as long as Spain could play in the World Cup, all the fans would be satisfied, and they wouldn't ask for more."

'But now that we're stronger, they're starting to want us to perform better, especially in terms of results, and that's normal.'

"Yes, we are the team with the best chance of winning the title, and my colleagues and I, as well as my players, will come into the World Cup in the best possible condition!"

……

Despite the remoteness of the location and the fact that the opening match of the World Cup was in the evening, Yang Hao's first press conference still attracted nearly 100 media outlets.

As soon as Yang Hao's news came out, it immediately caused a huge response.

Everyone noticed that although Yang Hao looked like he had repeatedly lowered the expectations of the outside world, he was neither humble nor arrogant, he seemed very confident, and more importantly, there were no injuries in Spain.

This is indeed a very surprising feat.

You know, after a busy season, there are so many people in the team, and there are no players injured, it's really hard.

In Marca's parlance, this shows the professionalism of Yang Hao and his team.

You know, in the past few years, Atletico Madrid has been the team with the fewest injuries in La Liga and even European football.

And now, Yang Hao is on the stage of the World Cup, once again telling everyone what it means to be professional!

For Spain's World Cup journey, public opinion has also been rising.

Especially after Yang Hao's press conference, all the media and fans have raised their expectations for Spain.

With no injuries and good form, Spain's strength can be seen in this situation.

And the first game of this World Cup is precisely South Korea.

The whole world still remembers that in the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup, Spain was "made" out of the World Cup by the South Korean team, and the two sides formed a deep hatred.

After an eight-year absence, only Joaquín was left in the Spanish national team, but that was enough.

Marca revealed that after the first training session in South Africa, Yang Hao specially held a mobilization meeting of the whole team and specially arranged Joaquin to give a speech on stage, just to use the shame of 2002 to inspire the fighting spirit of the Spanish players.

Yang Hao hopes that the Spanish players can show 200% focus and strength to strive for a success in the World Cup in South Africa.

Playing the first game well is very important for the World Cup!

Using this feud between South Korea and Spain to motivate the players is undoubtedly a means for Yang Hao.

Spain's first match was on June 16.

The day before the game, Prince Felipe, the crown prince of Spain, represented the royal family and came to Johannesburg, South Africa, to supervise the Spanish national team, hoping that all the players can continue to work hard and give their best performance.

With the big game just around the corner, South Korea's head coach Heo Jeong-mao also felt the tension of the approaching storm, and he said in a low-key pre-match press conference that Spain is the most feared team in this World Cup.

"Against opponents like that, we need to be vigilant and play to our advantage of being good at running."

The Korean team is a good runner and willing to run.

Everyone speculated that Xu Dingmao should use full-court pressing tactics to restrain Spain's pass-and-possession play.

This has been confirmed by many teams in the past.

Not so long ago, didn't Paraguay rely on running and defending to contain Spain's attack?

This has also become the strongest weapon of the South Korean team to restrain Spain.

And Yang Hao has been prepared for this for a long time.

……

On the evening of June 16, Moshe Mabuheida Stadium in Durban, South Africa.

In the first round of the group stage of the World Cup, Spain played against South Korea.

Interestingly, the referee of this match was the referee of the World Cup final, Howard Webb.

He has just been in charge of the Champions League final.

The South Korean team discharged the tactic of 4231 in this game, obviously as expected, and wanted to contain Spain's passing and possession by pressing the ball all over the court.

Both sides are basically playing cards open.

Yang Hao's response was also simple, direct, and brutal.

Spain's speed is not particularly fast, but the skills at the feet are delicate, and the passing and receiving coordination is exquisite, so they make full use of the advantage of passing and cutting and run with the South Korean team.

Don't you like to run, and you're good at running?

Then run to your heart's content, hapless Koreans!

Xu Dingmao was a little strange to find that Yang Hao's start was still relatively stable, and he did not play the attack he was best at, but first controlled the ball and the rhythm of the game steadily, and slowly advanced.

This left the South Korean team with no room to play in the opening game to deal with the attack.

The ball and tempo were controlled by Spain, and the South Korean team could only run with the rhythm of Spain.

In the first 10 minutes, both sides played cautiously and carefully, and the scene was also very dull.

It wasn't until the 10th minute that David Silva and Torres collided with the wall after a one-two on the left side, crossed from the side, and tried to find Villa at the back post, but were held by South Korean goalkeeper Jung Cheng-long.

In the 16th minute, it was still on the left side, David Silva and Iniesta combined, Antonio López cut in the back row, and Torres fired a direct left-footed shot from the left side of the penalty area, which was slightly wide.

Just one minute later, on the right, Xavi Alonso suddenly sent a long ball to the right side of the pitch.

Villa inserted at high speed, after catching up with the ball, burst into the right side of the penalty area, faced Li Rongpyo, a feint, buckled the South Korean left-back, hit with his left foot, slid the post slightly, and hit the side netting.

As Spain gradually took control of the field, as South Korea lost their rhythm and possession, Spain's offensive began to pick up.

But the South Korean team also showed great tenacity.

The back-and-forth offensive and defensive stalemate between the two sides also made all the fans a little worried.

The tenacity of the South Korean team and the running at the expense of physical strength can indeed cause a lot of trouble for Spain.

But when the live broadcast camera was given to the sidelines, everyone found that Yang Hao, who was in a suit and leather shoes, looked very calm and calm.

In the noise of the sky, Yang Hao didn't even command the game.

In the 24th minute, it was still Spain's left side.

A pass from David Silva and Andres Iniesta, Antonio López cut in diagonally on the left rib, received Iniesta's pass, and then distributed to the left side of the edge of the penalty area.

The Spanish left winger cut in at high speed and crossed with his left foot.

In the big penalty area, the South Korean central defender took the first step to push the ball out.

But the ball did not fly very far and landed at the feet of Xavi within a thirty-meter zone.

Xavi passed to Andres Iniesta, and Xiaobai sent a through ball from the edge of the box.

The kick was like a scalpel, cutting through the two lines of South Korea's defense in an instant, and landed accurately on the right side of the penalty spot.

At this time, Villa rushed to the horse, stopped the ball with his right foot, and after deducting Li Rongpyo, he hit it with his left foot.

"The ball is in!!"

"David Villa!!"

"In the 23rd minute of the first half, Spain took the lead in knocking on the goal of the South Korean team!"

"1 to 0!"

Villa turned and ran excitedly.

The rest of the Spanish internationals followed suit.

It was the first goal of the World Cup!

Yang Hao was also so excited on the sidelines that he raised his fists high.

In the stands, many fans from Spain and even from all over the world cheered and cheered.

"Iniesta's through ball is so beautiful!"

"We can clearly see that Xiaobai found the gap accurately in the South Korean team's tight defense, and Villa's air cut run was also very accurate, and he seemed to have guessed that Iniesta could pass the ball."

"This is tacit understanding!"

"The chemistry of two players from Atletico Madrid's academy!"

……

South Korea tried to play a wave of attacks after conceding a goal first, but soon, Spain returned the favor.

Just 2 minutes later, Xavi's long-range shot made the South Korean team break out in a cold sweat.

They are well aware that they do not have the quality to play against Spain.

Yang Hao made adjustments on the sidelines.

He motioned for his players to hold their pace and slow down.

The speed here is not only the speed of the players' movements, but also the speed of the passes.

What does that mean?

It is to strengthen the team's ability to control the ball and give full play to the advantages of technology.

South Korea can run and is willing to run, and after Spain slows down, the tactical effect of this running advantage of the South Korean team will be greatly reduced.

And Yang Hao didn't expect that Xu Dingmao didn't dare to press it out.

This shows that the mentality of Koreans is a bit conservative.

When it comes to this kind of competition, it is inevitable to press it out and fight.

If you lose the ball first, if you don't press it out and fight, it will be consumed to a certain extent, and it will be a death.

Fighting is also death, not fighting is death, then it must be fighting.

Maybe you can spell out a chance.

But Xu Dingmao's ideas are still conservative.

He wants to fight, but he doesn't want to fight too early.

Spain continued to control the field and the tempo, continuing to slip past South Korea with skillful passing.

The South Korean team has stepped up their defense, especially in some moves, which have been significantly increased.

It wasn't until the 29th and 33rd minutes that they received two yellow cards in a row.

It was also the first two yellow cards of the game, both of which went to South Korea.

And in the 34th minute, it was Spain's attack on the left that came into play.

Yang Hao's tactics are active in playing two wings, and tonight, the right side is more about plugging in the attack in the future.

Break down the wing, with a focus on the left.

The right side of the South Korean team, Wu Fanxi, is a weakness, so Spain has been attacking non-stop in this position.

David Silva, Antonio López and Andres Iniesta were a trio of non-stop attacks on this side.

This time, it was David Silva who broke forward from the left rib with the ball, stepped on the left touchline of the penalty area, and picked up a pass with his left foot.

Torres, who followed up in the middle, jumped high and beat the two South Korean central defenders, Cho Young-heng and Lee Jung-so, and hit the goal with a header from close range and smashed the ball into the South Korean team's goal.

2 to 0!

"The ball is in again!!"

"Torres!"

"Spain's second goal, in the 34th minute!"

'It was another back-to-back on the left, David Silva's dribbling breakthrough was very threatening, and the subsequent cross was just right in front of Torres.

"South Korea's defense is a bit out of step with Spain's attacking tempo."

……

The first half ended with a 2-0 lead from Spain.

It was clear to everyone that Spain was still holding on to the game, acting more restrained and not doing their best.

Or should it be said, this is also Yang Hao's strategy.

Playing a team like South Korea, Spain doesn't need to make big moves as soon as they come up and make everyone desperate.

This is evident in the design of tactics.

But Yang Hao told the players very firmly that the South Korean team would press out and play in the second half.

"They've been cornered by us, and they have no choice!"

Yes, now the Korean team can't fight anymore.

And Yang Hao's strategy is to hit head-on!

"I hope that you will use this game to tell the Koreans that the shame of the year can only be washed away with a massacre!"

"They say that in the first round of the group stage of this year's World Cup, there has been no surprising big score so far."

"Tonight, it's up to us in Spain to create it!"

After the rematch in the second half, Yang Hao's best opening attack was thrown.

It was Spain attacking on the left, or defending against South Korea's U Van West on the right.

Just 90 seconds into the opening game, the South Korean team, which took the lead in kick-off, was tackled by Spain before it had a chance to pass into the Spanish half, forming a siege momentum, and after Antonio López passed the ball on the left side, it was kicked out of the big penalty area by the goalkeeper.

The ball fell to the perimeter.

After Andres Iniesta stopped the ball, a skilful croquette, after cutting past the South Korean defender, picked up a cross from the top of the arc on the edge of the box to the left.

David Silva was on the left touchline of the penalty area, chested the ball and then picked up his left foot into the middle.

Torres cut in at high speed, headed the ball into the goal, and once again smashed the ball into the South Korean goal.

3 to 0!

Brace!

"Torres !!"

"Spain is next!"

"Less than two minutes into the second half, Spain scored again against South Korea.

"3 to 0!"

"Tonight is clearly not a Korean day."

"Spain's tactics tonight are very simple, basically pressing the right side of the South Korean team, and it has worked repeatedly."

"Xu Dingmao is obviously very dissatisfied with this result."

"But now he doesn't have much to do but keep struggling and try to create a goal."

……

Spain, who took the lead at the beginning of the second half, did not take it as soon as it was good, but took advantage of the victory to chase after it.

The emotions that Yang Hao stirred up before the game played a role in this game, especially now.

Spain's internationals are all riveting and want revenge and teach the South Koreans a lesson.

In the 58th minute, it was Spain who instigated an attack on the left side, David Silva sent a through ball in the ribs, which was given to the back of the defensive line, Torres inserted it at high speed, broke through Zhao Rongheng on the left side of the penalty area, and hit the goal with his feet.

This powerful volley was saved by goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong, but it landed on the right side in front of the goal.

After Villa stepped in at high speed, he wanted to get up and hit the ball, but he hit the defender and rebounded to the middle of the penalty area.

I saw Xavi plug in, meet the flying football, and shoot directly.

The ball followed a straight line and quickly drilled into the bottom right corner of the South Korean team's goal.

Zheng Chenglong just got up from the ground, and before he could react, the goal was already lost.

4 to 0!

All the fans in the stadium were stunned and stupid!

Even, at this moment, all the fans sitting in front of the TV are stupid.

Spain is in really good shape!

The South Korean team did not work hard and showed great tenacity, but in front of Spain, the South Korean team even controlled the ball and turned it into a luxury.

From the very beginning of the game, they were completely played by Spain, and the ball and rhythm were controlled by Spain.

"The South Korean team is like being led by the nose by Spain, and the situation is very passive."

And in the 72nd minute, Joaquin, who had just come on as a substitute, replaced Villa, and Fernando Llorente also replaced Torres.

This is Yang Hao's strategy.

With the win in hand, there is no need to continue to fight hard, replace the two scorers, and save the energy to play the second game.

Joaquín was a party in 2002, and he still remembers vividly the tears that were shed in the Korean arena.

So, after coming on the pitch, Joaquín showed extra hard work, constantly dribbling and planning attacks on the right side.

In the 78th minute, he even dribbled past two defenders of the South Korean team by himself, burst into the right side of the penalty area, and suddenly got up to hit the goal, slightly wide.

And in the 82nd minute, it was Joaquín's breakthrough on the right flank, which caused a foul by Li Rongpyo and won a valuable free kick opportunity for Spain.

Xavi converted the free-kick and set up Llorente's close-range header, which was saved by Zheng Chenglong.

In the scuffle in the penalty area, Ramos grabbed the landing spot and stabbed the ball into the South Korean goal.

5 to 0!

At this moment, the Korean team can be regarded as complete despair!

Yang Hao also made the third substitution with confidence and continued to stay for the next round of the group stage.

In the ensuing game, Spain still firmly controlled the ball and rhythm, and the South Korean team was depressed.

Obviously, the first game of the World Cup was slaughtered by Spain, and the morale of the South Korean team was hit.
