Chapter 670: The Final Four
"This ball not only reflects Dong Fangzhuo's excellent running and shooting skills, but also reflects the tacit cooperation between the players of the Chinese team, from Dong Fangzhuo and Mao Jianqing to attract firepower on the left side, Zheng Zhi in the backfield has observed this scene, and then deliberately transferred the ball to the right side, Hao Junmin alertly and resolutely cut the ball to the edge of the South Korean team's penalty area, he did not have no target, but picked up the ball and passed it to Dong Fangzhuo who suddenly returned to the middle......"
Duan Xuan is repeating the process of this goal, so that the fans in front of the TV listen to it with relish, after he recounted it, everyone feels that this goal is even more high, scoring this kind of thing, although the tactical process is very strong, but scoring goals often depends on luck, but now after Duan Xuan said this, it seems that scoring goals is so taken for granted......
※※※※
"It's him again, he said a long time ago that he would follow him to the death, why did he find a chance again? We almost used three players to mark him, and it stands to reason that Park Ji-sung should be familiar with him, but isn't he just like deserting? I now suspect that when Dong Fangzhuo shot the goal, our captain was ready to raise his arms and shout, and rushed up to celebrate with him......"
South Korean fans buried themselves.
"When you're on the wing, you should cut off his route into the penalty area at any time."
"You see how calmly he shoots, there's no one around."
"The defenders are like pigs, and they get rid of ...... with a small move"
Anyway, in the eyes of Korean fans, none of this should happen......
There is no way, the South Korean team has to accept the fact that it is lagging behind, and the current Chinese team is no longer the Chinese team of the past.

The game resumed, South Korea tried to attack, but the two wings of the Chinese team, Mao Jianqing and Hao Junmin, retreated slightly, and stretched wide to the sides, first of all, the two wings of South Korea formed a block, 433, 4231 and 451 The formation itself is more flexible, and when it is necessary to defend, the development of the two wings is quite important.
"Now China, play very calmly, the defense is also very tenacious, Feng Xiaoting in Schalke 04 although not the main force, but also a regular substitute, more than five months of experience made him appear more calm in the back, Zheng Zhi not to mention, last season led Charlton to the Premier League relegation success, his performance in the back position is quite beautiful, at this time transplanted to the Chinese team, they are still shining and radiating, although the South Koreans are anxious to attack, but can not take any advantage."
Ten minutes disappeared like this, but in the 41st minute, there was a low-level mistake in the defense of the South Korean team, Mao Jianqing on the left side easily won the ball and formed a left-footed shot, but fortunately, Li Yun attacked in time and sealed the ball with his body.
The ball bounced to Mao Jianqing's feet again, Mao Jianqing didn't have a tendon, this time he swept the middle, Chen Tao volleyed directly from 20 meters away, but the ball was once again blocked by Kim Jin-gyu of the South Korean team and blocked the bottom line......
"It's a pity!"
"The Korean players are working too hard."
"Otherwise, the score might have become 2:0."
"The Chinese team doesn't have many offensive opportunities, but the attacking quality is very high."
South Korea's coach, Dutchman Peter Welbeck walked into the tunnel with a frown, this game could be his last game, if he loses, he has led the team to the present after the World Cup in Germany, although the results of the South Korean team are okay, not the results of other coaches.
But the South Korean team's attack is very weak, the scoring ability is very poor, this is the most deadly, the results in the group stage speak for themselves, 1:1 draw with Saudi Arabia, 1:2 loss to Bahrain, 1:0 win against Indonesia, it is simply miserable, compared to the Chinese team's big score is even more embarrassing.
There is no harm if there is no comparison, as soon as Korean fans compare the Chinese team, Welbeck, who has studied under Hiddink, simply can't bear to look at it directly......
"Class,"
"Class,"
"Class,"
Some of the Korean fans at the scene couldn't help but shout their cries in the stands, although Welbeck couldn't hear it, but the leaders of the Korean Football Association sitting in the VIP seats could hear it clearly, shouting Welbeck to get out of class, isn't it just scolding the leader for being mediocre? They began to sit on pins and needles, and finally the president of the Korean Football Association stood up and walked straight to the dressing room of the Korean team, as for what to say, no one knows.
On the Chinese team's side, Crawford was in the locker room and told everyone in a calm tone:
"1:0 is not safe, and that is not going to be a reason for us to celebrate."
'Not only do we have a high level of focus defensively, but we also have to keep looking for opportunities in attack.
"Always remember our goal, our goal is to reach the final, we want to win the championship, any stumbling blocks must be cleared by us!"
"The achievement of this great glory requires each and every one of you to unite and contribute all your strength!"
"Focus on the game, focus on the fight!"
Although Crawford roars like any other coach when directing the game on the pitchside, passionate, angry or frustrated, he never gets too excited or uses more extreme language to communicate with his players in the dressing room, and his dressing room speech is traditional and positive......
The Korean fans were shouting to get out of class, while the Chinese fans were waving the five-star red flag in celebration, they were very excited and excited, because the feeling that the Chinese team gave them was that they would definitely eliminate South Korea! That's how it feels!
At the beginning of the second half, Li Dongguo was replaced by Cao Jaezhen. Poor form has caused Welbeck to lose trust in him. Lee Dong-guk's face is very ugly, he has played so many games on behalf of South Korea, he has never been treated badly, for him, this is simply terrible, which means that the South Korean team's defeat or victory in this game has little to do with him, at least he is not on the court for at least 45 minutes.
"Yo, Li Dongguo's emotions were a little strong, and when he came down, he directly ignored Welbeck's care...... If Welbeck loses this game, he is likely to be sacked, and the fans in the stands are shouting that he is out of class. ”
The two sides are still fierce and not exciting, and the light rain that the Bank of China has just stopped resting, and now the rain is getting heavier again, and the changeable Malaysian weather has added difficulty to the game.
It wasn't until the 60th minute that both sides had their first shot on goal of the second half. After receiving a pass from the right side at the edge of the penalty area, Son Dae-ho shot the ball 19 meters away on the left rib, but the focused Zeng Cheng easily took the ball out of the bottom line and gave the South Korean team a corner kick. Although there was a certain threat on goal, it did not panic the Chinese players, and after the South Koreans drove the ball into the penalty area, Feng Xiaoting predicted the landing point of the ball in advance, and took the first step to push the ball out, not giving the Korean players any chance at all.
There was a round of applause in the stands.
"Look, Feng Xiaoting is becoming more and more like a defender, and the corner kick he cleared is simply reassuring!"
"In the past, when South Korea played China, every time they passed the ball into the penalty area, the Chinese team was always in a hurry, hairy, which made people look very uneasy, and now I feel that not only the defense is very stable, but also the connection between Zheng Zhi and Zhao Xuri in the midfield has become very stable, Chen Tao They are not out of touch with the midfield, they are an inseparable whole, and in the end they are creating opportunities for Dong Fangzhuo."
In the 63rd minute, Chen Tao appeared in the middle of the South Korean team with the ball, and Kim Jong-woo put Chen Tao down and gave the Chinese team a chance to take a free kick in front. Dong Fangzhuo stood in front of the set-piece, which made the Chinese fans immediately scream.
"Dig a slot, this position is very good, Dong Fangzhuo should be able to kick out a beautiful fallen leaf!"
"Nine times out of ten, this goal will go in."
Chinese fans' expectations for Dong Fangzhuo are too high, and they think that Dong Fangzhuo can enter, which is almost perverted......
From a free kick 23 meters away, Dong Fangzhuo did hit a fallen leaf, but the ball missed the post.
There was a sigh from the stands......
"The quality of this ball is too poor, not like Dong Fangzhuo's style."
"Haha, I thought it was Li Yi making free throws."
Former international player Li Yi accidentally lay down the gun......
Fortunately, this was just said by the fans, if it came from the mouths of Duan Xuan and Zhang Bin, Li Yi, who was sitting in front of the TV watching the game, would definitely vomit blood and die.
The ball was back at the feet of the South Korean players as they tried to organise the attack, but soon found out again that the Chinese midfield was like a thick wall that was difficult to penetrate.
This Chinese team is no longer the Chinese team they bully casually. The defense layer by layer made it quite difficult for the South Korean team to advance, but in the 68th minute, the Chinese team played a quick counterattack after breaking the ball, and it was Mao Jianqing on the left side, although Mao Jianqing's shooting footwork was not very good, but the speed of dribbling was really fast, Wu Fanxi directly shoveled Mao Jianqing in the backfield and was warned by a yellow card. At this time, Krauchen did not hesitate and replaced Hao Junmin on the right side with Qu Bo.
At this point, he felt he could try a new tactic.
Qu Bo?
The muscles in Welbeck's face twitched. Of course Qu Bo knows him, this guy is the main right winger in the 06 World Cup, and now he is on the field at this time, which is ready to put another sharp knife in the ribs of the South Korean team......
"Crowchen's tactics are very clear, Qu Bo came up, and Mao Jianqing on the left echoed, the two knives were inserted into the hinterland of the South Korean team, the South Korean team just wanted to attack, they also had to think about what was behind them......"
In the 70th minute, Kim Jong-woo received a pass from the left and hit the top of the goal with a header. Then the Chinese team really launched a fast attack, Qu Bo relied on the advantage of speed and physical fitness on the right side, that is, he took the ball to his teammates, and the South Korean team could only foul again.

Lian Jixun, who put down Qu Bo, was constantly panting, obviously exerting a lot of physical energy, but he still hasn't figured it out, because Mao will be so tired in today's game, as a left forward, he not only has to keep attacking, but also actively return to defense, the offense is not outstanding, but the defense is so embarrassed, and now the opponent has a very fast Qu Bo, isn't it more painful?
Fortunately, coach Welbeck was not stupid enough to this extent, and he was surprised to find that Cui Chengguo was going to replace him at this time.
Thank God!
In his heart, he didn't even want to continue playing this game, so you can imagine how wrong the mentality of the Korean players was.
However, Welbeck didn't know, and neither did Park Ji-sung on the field.
Especially Park Ji-sung, he still leads by example, constantly sweeping the Chinese team's offense in the middle, it is simply one person to be two people, not only to cut off the ball passed to Dong Fangzhuo as much as possible in defense, but also to resolutely insert forward when attacking, he is now the full nurse of the Korean team!
The two teams are still tug-of-war, but the South Korean team has significantly reduced their physical strength, while the Chinese team is still slightly better. It's not that the Chinese team's physical preparation is better than that of the Koreans, but that the Chinese team is ahead in the score, and Zheng Zhi and Chen Tao control the pace of the game on the field.
This would have been impossible before, but today it is true!
The time came to the 81st minute, when Kim Jong-woo's shot on the periphery was off the bottom line, the South Koreans no longer had the same secret defensive speed as at the beginning of the game, and Zheng Zhi resolutely handed the ball to the feet of Qu Bo, who had just come up for ten minutes, Qu Bo had no other idea, but to use speed to bully the right side of the South Korean team. When Qu Bo took the ball and hit near the bottom line, Cui Chengguo had no choice but to take the risk of kicking the ball out of the bottom line and giving the Chinese team a corner kick.
Feng Xiaoting finally rushed up from the backcourt, before this corner, he had never come up to participate in the attack, but this time he came over, and stood with Zheng Zhi, these two high points instantly gave the Korean players a headache, especially the sudden extra Feng Xiaoting.
Chen Tao drove the ball to the goal on the right side, and the flight speed of the ball was quite fast, and none of the players on both sides touched it!
But South Korean goalkeeper Li Yunzai estimated that he was too nervous, and still hit him with his fist at the back point!
The fight was terrible, the flight path of the ball was changed, and Sun Xiang, the kid, finally had a chance to show himself. He picked up the ball on the left and then played it into the South Korean penalty area again.
"Rear point!"
"Dong Fangzhuo!"
Everyone screamed, and when they saw the ball running towards Dong Fangzhuo, they all habitually screamed.
He leaped high, somewhat standing out from the crowd.
You can clearly see him twisting his thick waist and abdomen, and then pushing his head forward!
"Shoot!"
"Oh no, it's a pass!"
"He gave the ball to Feng Xiaoting!"
"Shot !!!"
Feng Xiaoting stretched out his left leg before the South Korean player and touched the ball first. With a small splash of water on the turf, the ball also goes into the net.
"The ball is in!"
"The ball is in! Feng Xiaoting! ”
"2:0, the Chinese team leads the South Korean team 2:0."
"The South Korean team has almost been pronounced a death sentence, and although the game is very close, it is always the Chinese team who controls the situation on the field. It should have been a game-winning goal! ”
"Dong Fangzhuo didn't shoot reluctantly just now, he calmly gave the ball to Feng Xiaoting, Feng Xiaoting made meritorious contributions to the Chinese team, and the Chinese team stepped into the semi-finals of the Asian Cup with one foot!"
After the goal, Feng Xiaoting rushed to Dong Fangzhuo to celebrate, as a central defender, you can imagine how excited it must be to be able to score in a crucial game......
Finished
South Korea's captain Park Ji-sung stood in the light rain, his eyes instantly turned lonely, and so did his teammates.
A few minutes later, the referee relentlessly blew the whistle for the end of the match.

"Hey, Park, good job."
"At least it didn't make me break Alidaii's goalscoring record, did it?"
Dong Fangzhuo came over and hugged Park Ji-sung's shoulders and comforted.
"I told you, don't run into us in advance...... Don't be depressed and go on vacation! ”
“……”
"It's not that you can't do it, it's that we're too strong."
“……”
Is that a comfort to me? Park Ji-sung was very depressed, yes, although Dong Fangzhuo did not tie Ali Daei's goal record, but, what's the point of this? It only makes sense if the team wins......
He doesn't feel like he has any sense of accomplishment, just like in Manchester United, Dong Fangzhuo has never disregarded the interests of the team for the sake of his goals, and now, it still is......
In the end, the Chinese team reached the quarterfinals of the 2007 Asian Cup.
Two hours later, their semi-final opponents were out...... (https:)
