World Cup of Great Powers

Chapter 244 This is the Big News
If it is said that before the Asian Cup, some people still questioned Zeng Zheng's coaching level, thinking that he was just a coach who caught up with the "good times".

But after 10 minutes of this Sino-Korean battle, Zeng Zheng's coaching level has convinced everyone.

On the sidelines, the performances of the coaching staff of China and South Korea were diametrically opposed.

Zeng Zheng is personable and unrestrained.

There is quite a sense of sight of majestic and heroic hair, feather fans and scarves, while talking and laughing, masts and sculls disappear in ashes.

Even the scratched sunglasses on the bridge of his nose are full of vicissitudes at the moment.

On the other hand, South Korea.

The two teaching assistants beside Xu Dingmao almost broke their voices.

The shouts of "Smecta" can be heard endlessly, but with little effect.

Judging from the expressions of the South Korean players on the field, after falling behind by two goals at the start, these players were seriously affected by the atmosphere of the scene.

The previous characteristics of "ruthless, accurate, fierce, and fierce" could not be played out at all, but was dragged into the rhythm of the Chinese team little by little.

The middle of the midfield is like an endless quagmire, submerging South Korea's million-strong army.

"Hey, that's a beautiful pass!"

"Come on, come on!"

"Sigh~~~"

In front of the TV, General Fan gasped.

In the 18th minute, Wu Chengying, who was inserted by the left back, successfully cut inside after hitting a wall with his teammates, and took a cold shot with his left foot without any defense. The ball hit the side net of the goal, and South Korea escaped. robbery.

Seeing that his former club teammates could shoot such a wonderful shot, General Fan said "tsk tsk".

"Fan, this defender has really good footwork. Was he a shooter before?" General Fan's club teammate Austin asked in surprise.

"No, no, no, the third prince is at best a left back capable of getting assists." General Fan's evaluation of Wu Chengying was very pertinent.

"But I see him attacking very aggressively in this game. It seems that he has shot more than two goals so far, right?"

In less than 20 minutes of the game, the left back can take two shots, which is already a lot.

"That's all because of our coach!" General Fan took the credit for Zeng Zheng as a matter of course.

Isn't it the coach's credit for allowing Wu Chengying to get so many opportunities to kick the goal?

"What an amazing coach." Austin exclaimed.

Taking this opportunity, General Fan hugged the younger brother who was shining his shoes on the other side, and said eagerly, "How is it, Cole? Do you want to go to China to play football? If you want to go, I can take you Introduce to Coach Zeng. If you play under him, you are guaranteed to become such an attacking left-back!"

Hearing General Fan's invitation, Ashley Cole was indeed moved.

But in the next second, he clenched the tip of his tongue and shook his head violently.

He did not forget the secret mission given to him by his "old benefactor" Wenger.

The 19-year-old Ashley Cole, as a well-known Premier League rookie, was loaned to Crystal Palace by Wenger in March.

Cole was supposed to return to Arsenal during the summer window, but in the end, Wenger decided to let Cole stay in Crystal Palace for another six months to one year.

As a result, Cole, who is in a lower league, will get more chances to play;

Secondly, Cole, who has a good relationship with General Fan, is also responsible for using counterintuitive tricks to "abduct" General Fan to Arsenal when he returns.

It can be said that the professor is killing two birds with one stone.

But what he didn't expect was that an ordinary Asian Cup would put him and Arsenal at the risk of Cole's "betrayal".

For a long time, in the eyes of fans, the Asian Cup and the European Cup are two dishes with completely different tastes.

The European Cup is delicious, but the Asian Cup is tasteless.

It is also an intercontinental competition, and the gap between teams is obvious.

But the opening ceremony of the Asian Cup made all the Europeans in front of the TV shine.

Compared with other teams, the Chinese team, which has just achieved excellent results in the Olympic Games, is obviously different from other Asian teams.

The cooperation is wonderful, and the scene is also smooth and flowing.

Especially the ingenious connection in the middle that seems to be well-designed, which makes coaches like Wenger full of praise after seeing it.

"Today's Chinese team really miss Arsenal."

That's right, the people watching this game in Europe are either fans of China and South Korea, or some scouts and coaches who hope to introduce players from China and South Korea.

Whether it is South Korea, which is the "representative of Asia" and is always abused in intercontinental competitions, or the Chinese team, which is challenging an old team and may be the new king of Asia, they are all the targets of signings by European teams.

Players such as Zhang Xiaorui, Li Jinyu, Li Tie, Sun Jihai, General Fan, and Yang Chen have been gradually recognized by mainstream European leagues such as Portuguese Super League, Serie A, La Liga, League One, and German Second Division.

With such a young average age, the Chinese team is naturally on the focus list of the professor who is good at digging out little monsters.

In this game, his focus has been on Li Datou.

"LI has scored three headers in this game, right?" After Li Weifeng put in a header again, the professor rubbed his chin and smacked his mouth.

"That's right, Mr. Arsene." The assistant coach nodded and said, "These three headers were all within the range of the goal frame."

The professor nodded after hearing this, and muttered casually: "If this continues, the Chinese team will soon score again."

As Wenger expected.

Even the left back and center back had many chances to attack the Chinese team. In the 24th minute, the Chinese team once again knocked on the opponent's door.

In the 24th minute, after Ma Mingyu made a steal in the front court, he made a wonderful pass to Wu Chengying, who was still in the offensive position.

Facing the defense of three South Korean defenders, the latter forcibly broke into the penalty area and swept the ball with his left leg across the center before losing his center of gravity.

Jin Longda, who was guarding the front post, quickly fell to the ground to intercept, but it was still a step too late.

After the ball slipped away from his fingertips, it just hit the arch of Li Datou's foot who had put in the assist, and bounced into the net.

"Beep!!!"

The whistle sounded again, and the Maojiawan Stadium celebrated again.

The scene was full of gongs, drums and singing.

The fans, already in a relaxed state, stood in front of their seats, singing and dancing to their heart's content.

When will you be unhappy at this moment?

Whether it's the scene or the score, we can't see the possibility of the Chinese team losing!
The old man Rossi in the center of the grandstand had already thrown his cowboy hat aside, and the banner in his hand was waving vigorously.

"Haha, now let's see how many goals the Chinese team can score against South Korea!"

Yes!

In less than 10 minutes, the Chinese team led 3-0.

This is a situation that has never been seen in 20 years!
The South Korean players were surrounded by the cheers of the Chinese fans, and they couldn't vent their unwillingness no matter how much they felt.

Hearing the wild shouts behind him, Xu Dingmao let out a long sigh.

"No wonder the Chinese would rather spend a lot of money to take over this Asian Cup."

"Zheng Mengzhun's bamboo mat really played a good hand!"

"It's a pity I can't see it."

The home atmosphere in Maojiawan made Xu Dingmao look forward to the 02 World Cup.

But he also knew.

After losing to the Chinese team today, his coaching career in South Korea will also end.

“3比0，3比0，3比0！”

"yeah!"

"Those three bald men are indeed the number of goals conceded!"

Qin Xue danced happily in the press box.

Colleagues around were writing hard, recording what they saw and heard in every corner of the scene after the Chinese team scored again.

The referee's baldness is just a joke.

They had a hunch that the Chinese team would not stop there!

The score of 3 to 0 completely aroused the confidence and fighting spirit of the Chinese team.

With the addition of the national team's BUFF, all the players continued to intensify the bombing of South Korea's goal as if they had been drugged.

In less than half an hour, Jin Longda has made more than 10 saves, more than other goalkeepers in a whole game.

Before no one in the Chinese team scored twice, he could even run for the MVP of the game!

Wishes are beautiful, but reality is cruel.

Whether it's the stubbornness of South Korea's bamboo shoes, or the limitations of Xu Dingmao's personal ability.

South Korea's 352 is destined to fall in front of Zeng Zheng.

In the 29th minute, Li Tie made a long pass to the space on the right of South Korea, and Ma Mingyu made a high-quality cross without any interference.

Hong Mingfu, who was fighting for the top in the middle, made a misjudgment and missed the ball.

And Liu Xiangtie behind him lost his favorable position in the confrontation with Yang Chen. As a result, Li Datou followed up with a header and directly knocked Jinlong to the ground.

At the same time, Qu Shengqing, who was keeping up with him, rushed to the ball at the first time and easily broke the net with a supplementary shot.

4 is better than 0!

The score on the court has completely turned into a one-sided situation!
From Lee Dong-guk's offensive error, to Noh Ting-yoon's loss of position, Hong Myung-bo's top fall, Ryu Sang-chul's poor marking, Kim Yong-dae's save and no one to make up for it, it was a series of mistakes by the South Korean players that caused the loss again. ball.

Players in so many positions have made mistakes, which is enough to show that the entire South Korean team has experienced huge problems.

Xu Dingmao watched anxiously from the sidelines.

But he had no other choice.

There are still 15 minutes before the intermission, so we can't make a substitution now, can we?
"Coach Xu, let's change!" At this moment, the assistant coach anxiously whispered in Xu Dingmao's ear.

"Substitution? If we change now, isn't it too early?"

"But Coach Xu, if you don't make a substitution, why are you still watching from the sidelines?"

Yes!

There is no other way than substitutions.

"Then who should I change to?" This rhetorical question drained the last of Xu Dingmao's strength.

"Change to Dongguo!" The assistant coach gritted his teeth and said Li Dongguo's name after a brief scan of the field.

"Who will replace it?"

"Take Park Jin-seop in exchange." The assistant coach said decisively, "We play 361! Don't the Chinese team like to play in the middle to pass and cooperate? Let's continue to increase the defensive investment of the middle players and see how they can pass!"

Xu Dingmao hesitated for a second, then nodded decisively.

"Okay, do as you say!"

In the 31st minute, the referee's whistle sounded, and South Korea was about to make a substitution.

"Changed midfielder?"

Zeng Zheng looked at South Korea's replacement performance with a dazed expression.

This stick is so wicked, he still wants to fight me!

Looking at the BUFF of the national team, Zeng Zheng couldn't help laughing out loud.

come on!
The more people in midfield, the better!

When it was 4-0, no one cared about the referee's baldness.

Everyone is aware that this game will develop in an unpredictable direction.

In just 30 minutes, the gaming company that started the game also hastily made adjustments, changing the odds 4 times in a row.

Even so, there are still many crazy fans betting on "winning others" and "more than 7 goals".

"For South Korea, the substitution adjustment in the first half was a helpless move."

"The most important task of Park Jin-seop is to ensure that his team maintains the current score before the end of the first half and does not continue to lose the ball." Huang Jianxiang's voice is full of relief and joy.

When talking about "keep the score" and "don't lose the ball again", Zui Yazi almost grinned to the ear, trying not to laugh out loud.

South Korea's coaching bench is already busy, but Zeng Zheng's side is still very personable and unrestrained.

Interested people found that Zeng Zheng never changed his place from the beginning to the end, nor did he make a big noise like before regardless of his image.

Even if South Korea was replaced, Zeng Zheng still looked like he was sure of winning.

It is Zeng Zheng's calm expression that makes all Chinese fans confident.

The game continues.

But soon Xu Dingmao discovered that his substitutions had no effect.

Three minutes after Park Jin-seop played, the Chinese team got another chance to score.

At that time, Shensi and Ma Mingyu hit the wall twice in the middle.

It was obviously the same person and the same "wall", but the four South Korean defenders who were passed by were like wooden stakes.

The crowded middle lane did not block the Chinese team's attack as the South Korean coach imagined. On the contrary, due to the dense positioning of the players, many players had a vague sense of their defense zone.

"Hey, I should guard this ball! Why are you stretching your legs?"

"I can prevent it by twisting my body!"

"Hey, why don't you guard this ball?"

"I saw you were next to him, I thought you were going to grab him!"

It is this ambiguity of responsibility that allows Ma Mingyu to find a good chance to shoot.

A beautiful "leaf ball" kicked on the penalty area line, hit the lower edge of the crossbar of South Korea's goal, and bounced on the goal line.

South Korea once again escaped a catastrophe temporarily.

If you survive a catastrophe, there must be a "disaster".

In the 36th minute, the Chinese team once again successfully intercepted the ball in the middle of the backcourt and launched a threatening attack.

This time, when the right back Shu Chang dribbled the ball from the side, he used his teammate's running position to make a fake fax and successfully cut the ball inside.

Yang Chen, who followed up in the middle, leaped high, rushed to the top in front of the opponent's defender, and the ball flew straight to the back corner of the gate.

The goalkeeper Jinlong was beyond his reach, and the score on the field was rewritten again.

5 is better than 0!

Yang Chen's goal made South Korea's substitution in the first half a joke.

“5比0，5比0，5比0！！！”

The fans cheered.

Watching football for more than ten years, when did you see the national football team play such a hearty victory?
what?
Have you scored such a big score when you played against Oman and the Philippines in the past few years?
Are Oman and the Philippines also called national teams?

The camera shot across the auditorium of the Chinese team. A young female college student with a small red flag on both sides of her cheeks kept turning her left and right hands towards the camera when facing the camera, as if reminding the fans in front of the TV that "5" The number is the same.

The male college student next to her opened his mouth even more, shouting "Bangzi, Bangzi".

Let the fans once again confirm the opponent of the Chinese team today.

Ten minutes later, the media headquarters of other Asian countries that followed the game received the first-half report of the opening match of this Asian Cup through various text messages.

When they saw the words CHINA5:Korea0, all the editors-in-chief of the sports department couldn't help but rubbed their eyes.

"I have a heavenly grandma."

"This time it's big news!"
