"Well done, brothers!"
In the home team's locker room, Pan Yi looked at the international players in front of him with a smile and praised loudly.
At halftime, it was Pan Yi's time again.
Lippi and his Italian coaching staff have a tacit understanding of standing back and letting this "translator" more accurately express the current message that needs to be conveyed to the players.
"I'm so proud of your performance in the first half!"
"To be honest, the Korean team's offensive power can be said to be one of the best in Asia. Not all Asian teams can withstand their bombing, but you did it."
"Not only did we defend well, we also found some loopholes in the opponent and made a good counterattack. I want to say it again, well done everyone!"
The praise and affirmation from Pan Yi made all the players in the locker room look much more relaxed.
Lippi applauded lightly, and his Italian colleagues also applauded.
It made some players even laugh.
This shows that the current mentality of national football players is still very relaxed.
Zheng Zhi smiled and said: "It's a pity that we failed to seize one or two good opportunities. Otherwise, Bangzi's face would be even worse."
When the captain said this, the team members all started discussing:
"Yeah, if we can score a goal first, I think we can really win."
"Did you see the look of their head coach? He was so angry after the draw. If he really fell behind, he would probably go crazy."
"It's a pity that our luck is a bit bad today."
The players were talking to each other, but Zhang Yuning said a little depressed: "It's all my fault. I will definitely play well in the second half!"
Huh?
Only then did everyone notice that it was Zhang Yuning's two shots in the first half. One hit the goalpost and the other was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.
When everyone is discussing the failure to score, aren't they "criticizing" Zhang Yuning?
Pan Yi laughed, went over and patted Zhang Yuning on the shoulder: "You have played well, I am very satisfied."
This is a comfort and a fact.
As today's starting center, Zhang Yuning must have been closely watched by the Korean team.
The two central defenders, Hong Zhengzhao and Zhang Xianxiu, have been almost inseparable from Zhang Yuning. It is really not easy for Zhang Yuning to get two good shooting opportunities when the team was on the defensive most of the time.
This also fully reflects his high-point role on the front line!
"As long as you keep playing like this, you will score sooner or later." Pan Yi said, turning his face to everyone again, "The same goes for you, keep it up. As long as we can play at the level we played in the first half, Whether it’s South Korea, Iran, or Japan, we have the ability to fight them!”
All the national players nodded.
If it were the national team that failed to qualify from the first stage of qualifiers for two consecutive years, and someone talked to them like this, they would definitely think that person was mentally ill.
At that time, the national football team, let alone Japan and South Korea, would not necessarily win if they encountered Thailand, Vietnam, or even Hong Kong.
But now that Pan Yi says this, no one will think there is anything wrong.
From the game in Qatar to this half in South Korea, it can be said that it is a process for national football players to improve their confidence.
Now each of them firmly believes that they can defeat more powerful opponents, at least within Asia!
Why do many people say that the national football team has no fighting spirit and no belief in winning on the field?
Sometimes it's because they lose confidence due to constant failures.
If you don’t believe you can win, how can you compete with your opponents on the court?
The arrival of Lippi and Pan Yi has completely changed this. They are all confident!
Another point is the temptation of the World Cup.
If we can beat South Korea, although we still can't surpass the top three in terms of points, we can get closer to the top three by 3 points.
10 points and 7 points, isn't it just a game?
There are still four games left in the game, and anything can happen during this period - because football is round, even if they are as strong as Iran and South Korea, they may not be able to defeat Qatar and Syria. The results of the first cycle have proven this.
This makes everyone's heart burn with a flame called "hope".
They saw hope of reaching the World Cup!
In this case, each of them is filled with desire.
Because this is their first time, and it may even be the last time, they can reach out and touch the threshold of the World Cup. If they miss it, they may never have the chance again.
This is not only true for veteran Zheng Zhi, but also for players such as Feng Xiaoting, Zhang Linpeng and Zeng Cheng.
The World Cup that countless of them dream of is right in front of them. If they can't catch it, it will be a lifelong regret for them.
"After the first half, everyone knows that when playing against the Korean team, we need to remain patient, focus on our own defense first, and then slowly wait for the opponent to make mistakes."
After beating the chicken blood, Pan Yi started to talk about tactics.
He took an analysis report of the first half game data that Lippi had just handed over, pointed at the tactical board and said: "South Korea may continue to strengthen their offense because they will not tolerate a draw, whether it is for the players or the coach." That’s the case.”
"But the more eager they are to attack, the more frequent the turnovers will be, the more anxious they will be, and the more opportunities we will have. This is what the data in the first half shows. Their pass turnover rate is very high."
"We must also remain patient. Koreans have always been known for their immortality and tenacity. We must not relax until the end of the game."
"If they are anxious or even violent, I also hope that our players can remain calm and rational enough. If the situation changes due to some irrational behavior, it will not be worth it."
"Tactically, we should continue to maintain space utilization in the second half..."
Finally, Pan Yi walked among the players, and his eyes scanned each player one after another.
"Brothers! The opponent needs these three points, but we will not let them take it away!"
"We want them to go home in despair from Changsha, and we want Koreanphobia to become a thing of the past!"
"For the 40,000 fans in the stands and the hundreds of millions of Dragon Country fans in front of the TV, go out and fight!"
Under this "output" of chicken blood first, tactics second, and finally chicken blood, all the national players clenched their fists:
"Just do it!"
——
"Players from both sides are back on the court."
"We can see that the Dragon Country team has not made any substitution adjustments. Lippi should be very satisfied with the team's performance in the first half and is not prepared to make any personnel changes so early."
"The South Korean team made a substitution. Stillik seemed a little dissatisfied with the ineffective high center forward Jin Xinyu in the first half, so he replaced midfielder Li Qingyong."
"To do this, we should have Hwang Hee-chan move to the center position, Koo Ja-cheol to play as a winger, and Lee Chung-yong to form a three-midfield system with Ki Sung-yong and Gao Ming-hyun."
"Although Huang Heechan is not as tall as Kim Shin-woo, his physical fitness is still relatively strong, and he often plays the center position in the club."
"Although he is only 1.77 meters tall, this Korean forward is not afraid of confrontation, and his breakthrough success rate is not low whether in the center or on the wing. At the same time, Huang Heecan is good at taking the ball and moving forward. What is even more valuable is his small size when taking the ball. The technology is also quite delicate.”
"It is these advantages of his that have allowed this 21-year-old striker to already gain a foothold in the Champions League regulars like Red Bull Salzburg and have scored more than ten goals this season."
"I don't know if such a change will have any impact on the Long Guo team's defense. After Huang Xican moves from the wing to the center, the threat to the goal will further increase."
"And because his characteristics are completely different from Jin Xinyu, the national football team's back line should pay more attention..."
With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game began.
Pan Yi was sitting on the coaching bench, chatting with Lippi next to him.
"I didn't expect Stillik to be so anxious and made a substitution in the midfield."
Lippi said with a smile: "This is tantamount to admitting that there is a problem with his starting lineup. But if he changes like this, the Korean team may not play crosses from both sides, and more of them will use the foot."
Pan Yi nodded: "Fortunately, we have also done targeted tactical training."
Of course, the national football coaching staff has done detailed analysis and research on the Korean team's striker combinations.
After getting rid of Son Heung-min, there are not too many tricks that Tilik can use.
In addition to the two tricks already used in this game, it is probably to let another high center forward Li Tinghyup serve as an arrow, or let Nam Tae Hee, who plays in Qatar, play as a winger.
If it were Li Tingxie, the method of dealing with him would be similar to that of Jin Xinyu;
And if you look at Nam Tae Hee, this man who plays in the No. 10 jersey of the South Korean team, he is of average height and has quick feet, strong ability to change lines, and his style is very similar to Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero.
But as long as the contact between left back Kim Jin-soo and him is cut off and he is unable to provide sufficient support to Nam Tae-hee, then Nam Tae-hee's solo fight will not be effective.
In short, the national football team has already made plans for various changes in South Korea.
So now Stillik uses plan B, which was already expected by Lippi and Pan Yi.
——
Hwang Hee-chan was very active after moving to the center position.
His speed is much faster than Jin Xinyu!
His ability to combine with the ball is also very strong. His touch of the ball can always be connected with a quick start to achieve changes in rhythm and get rid of his opponents.
Therefore, Huang Xican will often retreat to the midfield position, pressing the last defender of the national football team, and then wait for the opportunity to sprint forward.
The South Korean team also took advantage of the start of the second half to launch a decisive attack and created several offensive opportunities for Huang Heecan.
However, the national football team's central defender combination of Feng Xiaoting and Mei Fang seemed to be well prepared.
They blocked Huang Xican one after another, preventing him from fully utilizing his speed smoothly.
Feng Xiaoting is always paying attention to the Korean team's pass to Huang Xican. He often rushes forward and intercepts the ball.
This meant that although the South Korean team played very lively at the beginning, they still failed to get a good shooting opportunity.
Ten minutes into the second half, the South Korean team only had a long shot from substitute Li Qinglong, but it was easily won by the focused Zeng Cheng.
The Long Guo team's counterattack started from here.
Zeng Cheng threw the ball to Zhang Linpeng, who also passed the ball directly along the sideline to Lin Liangming.
Lin Liangming dribbled the ball forward along the right wing, but South Korean left back Kim Jin-soo was chasing him all the way. This made it difficult for Lin Liangming to get the chance to cut directly into the penalty area, so he stopped the ball first and took a look inside the penalty area.
At this time, Zhang Yuning was already ambushing in the penalty area at the front point, while Wu Lei was waiting for an opportunity at the back point. However, they had Korean defenders staring at them, so the opportunity did not look very good.
At this time, Huang Bowen's voice came from behind Lin Liangming: "This way! Give it to me!"
After hearing this, Lin Liangming made a cross pass without thinking and passed the ball to the right corner of the penalty area.
South Korea's late midfielder Gao Mingxuan had retreated to the penalty area at this time, and other players returning to defense did not have time to catch up with Huang Bowen. This resulted in Huang Bowen receiving the ball unmarked, and this position happened to be His area of expertise.
When Huang Bowen was at Changzhou Hengtai, he scored many beautiful long-range shots from such positions!
Therefore, all the Korean defensive players were shocked and immediately rushed towards Huang Bowen.
But Huang Bowen just made a fake move to shoot hard. In fact, he gently moved the ball to the middle.
At this time, another Dragon Kingdom player quickly jumped in from the back row!
It’s captain Zheng Zhi!
"Zheng Zhi! Shoot!"
"The ball is in!!!! It's in! It's in!!!!"
"The 61st minute, the 61st minute! A long shot from the top of the penalty area from the national team captain Zheng Zhi! The ball really went in!"
"The angle was very tricky. South Korea's goalkeeper Kwon Soon-tae didn't make any reaction and could only watch the ball go into the net!"
"This time the Long Guo team's offensive coordination was so exciting. The wing quickly penetrated and advanced, and then moved to the middle. This is one of the favorite offensive routines of the national football team after Lippi and Pan Yi came to the national football team!"
"From Zeng Cheng's hand-throwing ball to launch the attack, to Lin Liangming and Huang Bowen's wonderful cooperation, to Huang Bowen deceiving the defensive player to cross to the top of the arc, and then Zheng Zhi taking a long shot and hitting it, the entire scoring process was very smooth and very smooth. pretty!"
"The thirty-six-year-old veteran Zheng Zhi has always been the soul of the national team. Some people say that if the national team had 11 Zheng Zhi, they would have entered the World Cup long ago."
"And at the critical moment, he also stood up! He withstood the pressure and scored a goal for the Dragon Kingdom team, completely breaking the deadlock on the court!"
"The Korean team attacked for an hour, but it was our Dragon Team that scored first!"
After Zheng Zhi scored, all the fans in the stadium shouted his name crazily:
"Zheng Zhi!"
"Zheng Zhi!"
"Zheng Zhi!"
The captain of the Dragon Kingdom also rushed out of the stadium excitedly, rushed to the stands, and roared at the fans above.
All the international players, including those on the bench, rushed over, yelled and raised their arms together!
This is a golden goal!
In the offensive and defensive system of defensive counterattack, everyone knows how important it is for the defensive team to score first!
On the coaching bench, Lippi and Pan Yi did not rush over to make trouble with the players. After all, Mr. Lippi is almost 70 years old. If he is hugged and shaken by someone who has no vision, he will not be sent to the province. Go to the People's Hospital.
Moreover, the coaching staff members were relatively calm after the goal. Everyone just high-fived and celebrated one by one, not as crazy as the players.
They knew it would take another thirty minutes before the celebration could really begin! ——
After Zheng Zhi scored a goal, the morale of the Dragon Kingdom team was greatly boosted.
Not only did the fans in the stadium sing the national anthem, but the players on the field were also high-spirited.
However, the Korean team is different.
Their mood became more impatient!
In the subsequent game, South Korea began to launch a crazy counterattack, with all three lines pressing forward, hoping to quickly equalize the score.
But the Dragon Kingdom team firmly held its position and did not let the South Korean team have any opportunities.
The anxious Stillik could only make another substitution adjustment.
He replaced midfielder Gao Mingxuan with another forward Li Tingxie, preparing to use four forwards to attack the Long Guo team's defense.
But the Dragon Kingdom still defended tightly, and the Korean team never got a good chance to score.
Being unable to attack for a long time, falling behind in the score, coupled with all the pressure before the game, made the Korean players become more and more impatient on the court.
Especially after the second substitution and a burst of attacks, they still failed to create an effect, which made them all become more restless.
On the contrary, the Dragon Kingdom team began to frequently take advantage of the South Korean team's mistakes to launch sharp counterattacks, creating threats several times, which made South Korea even more furious.
Finally, in the 80th minute, the Korean team's emotions broke out.
At this time, Lin Liangming was protecting the ball on the wing. Huang Xican rushed over and tried to snatch the ball away, but he was unable to get it from Lin Liangming's feet.
In a rage, Huang Xican stretched out his hand and pushed Lin Liangming down from behind.
It wasn't over yet. Huang Xican, who was already thinking a lot, unexpectedly kicked Lin Liangming hard on the ground again as if to vent his anger!
For a moment, the stadium exploded!
Players from both sides rushed together, and the referee's whistle also sounded frequently.
"Hey, there is an emergency on the field now, and there seems to be a conflict between the two sides."
"Let's take a look at the slow motion... South Korea's player Huang Hee-chan looked very impatient. After the referee blew the whistle to indicate a foul, he still kicked the ball on Lin Liangming. This was a very bad and unsporting act. Moral behavior!”
"Zheng Zhi and Feng Xiaoting quickly rushed to the scene of the incident to question Huang Xican. These two are the captains and deputy captains of the national football team and they quickly came forward at this time."
"They looked very angry, but they controlled their emotions very well. They just pointed their heads at each other and said something verbally."
"Huang Xican was still defending something, and his Korean teammates also rushed up and fought against each other."
"The players on both sides are a little out of control. At this time, the Dragon Kingdom players must stay calm. We are leading the score now, and the advantage is on our side. We should try to exercise restraint and not let off-field factors affect us!"
"Okay, the head referee and assistant referee have worked hard to separate the players on both sides. Let's see how the penalty will be awarded this time."
"More than 40,000 fans at the scene were shouting red card! Red card! Lin Liangming is still lying on the ground. It looks like he was kicked hard..."
Lippi was a little anxious on the sidelines, because Lin Liangming is now an important attacker on the wing of the Dragon Country team. If he is injured, today's game will be nothing more. What should we do against Iran in the next game?
But Pan Yi patted Yinhu's shoulder gently, telling him not to panic.
Because Pan Yi had clearly seen just now that Lin Liangming was actually not a big problem. He just rubbed his ribs where he was kicked on the ground, and then prepared to get up.
But Feng Xiaoting, who rushed over, immediately pushed him to the ground and asked him to continue lying down!
This is the wisdom of veteran team members!
If the injury doesn't appear to be serious, maybe the referee won't take a "heavy hand".
In comparison, the young Lin Liangming still seems too young and innocent!
And when Pan Yi said this in Lippi's ear, Mr. Lippi was also happy.
Then he thought for a while and said: "Then we have to ask the team doctor to come in? Do a full show?"
Pan Yi nodded, and then immediately waved to the team doctor behind him: "Why are you still standing there? Smile! Oh, no, get in quickly!"
So the team doctors rushed in. After a period of "intense" inspections, they were well aware of the current situation. They also called a stretcher and carried Lin Liangming to the sidelines for treatment.
This time, the referee knew what was going on.
It is indeed a very bad move that intentionally hurts people! And it really hurts people! People can't even get up.
So, with the audience chanting "red card!" and "red card!", the referee came to Huang Xican with great energy and took out a ruby God of War card!
Huang Xican was punished!
The entire stadium suddenly burst into cheers.
There is no doubt that this is a red card.
After pushing someone down for a foul behind his back, he deliberately kicked the ball to hurt someone after the referee blew the whistle. This is really unjustifiable without giving him a red card.
The "acting" between Feng Xiaoting and Lin Liangming just made this red card more realistic.
At this time, Huang Xican looked extremely depressed and walked off the court with his head hanging down.
When he walked to the sidelines, he didn't even want to shake hands with coach Stillik and went straight into the tunnel.
Obviously, no matter what mood he is in now, it will definitely not be a good mood!
"Red card!"
"The referee indeed enforced the law impartially and gave the Korean team a red card!"
"As a result, the game has gone on for more than 80 minutes. The Korean team paid a painful price for their lack of composure. Huang Heechan, the most important attacker, was sent off with a red card."
"The current situation on the court is that the Dragon Kingdom team still leads by one goal, and the number of people is 11 against 10. The Korean team's situation is getting more and more difficult."
"If they really lose this game, they will not only lose three points, but also lose the face of Korean football. It can be said that they lose both the game and the people!"
"Perhaps today is the beginning of our Dragon Country football team truly defeating South Korea in important Asian competitions and completely getting rid of Korean phobia!"
"Who would have thought that the South Korean team, which has always been arrogant in the face of Longguo football in the past few decades, would actually play in such embarrassment and embarrassment today?"
"Let's take a look at the last ten minutes of the game and wait for this historic moment to arrive!"
