Chapter 983 It's Time to Go Back
Sun Xingmin clenched his fists secretly. He is living comfortably in Leverkusen now and will not consider going to the Premier League for the time being.

And is it possible to defeat Zhou Tiancheng only in the future?
This game must be won!

Hao Junmin came over and vented to Zhou Tiancheng: "See, that grandson is holding back some bad ideas with his teammates again."

"Let him do it." Zhou Tiancheng smiled lightly, as if he didn't take it seriously at all, "The key is that we have to hold ourselves steady, don't make too much of a fuss."

Hao Junmin smiled lightly: "Don't worry, Brother Cheng, everyone didn't say anything about the chance of Bangzi beating the dog in the water. The worse the beating, the happier you are."

The South Korean team's offense became monotonous, just kicking their feet again and again. Most of the time, the Chinese team wearing red jerseys took the initiative. Occasionally, a white figure flashed past, and then saw Sun Xingmin looking up regretfully Sighing, he either gave a ceremonial thumbs-up with his teammates, or quietly scolded ×× Smecta himself.

Stillik's frown became tighter and tighter. He did have another change, but it was used to fight for his life at the last moment. Apart from that, he had no other cards to change.

On the bench of the Chinese team, a few players stood up and walked to the sidelines to warm up from time to time, but the expressions of Lippi and Madaloni showed how relaxed they were.There is no need for any substitutions, it is just to keep the substitute players in shape at any time, and to moderately suppress their excitement.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the physical consumption of South Korean players is much greater than that of the Chinese team. Ji Chengyong and Gu Zizhe have no confidence to penetrate from the middle. The only bright spot is Sun Xingmin.

The ball possession rate of the Chinese team in the first half reached 59%. This result disappointed the commentators of other national TV stations. They were actually looking forward to a wonderful confrontation. The match between the two teams should be very hot.

But such a result was not beyond the expectations of He Wei and Xu Yang. Next to them was the commentator of South Korea's SBS. Looking at his dejected expression, to be honest, He Wei only found it quite enjoyable.

"This first half should be able to reassure Lippi. The old man has coached the Chinese team for these years, and now it can be regarded as the icing on the cake. It will be another addition to his coaching career. Asian Cup, European Cup, World Cup, AFC Champions League, Champions League, Serie A The five major leagues... the old man is truly a grand slam, and his career is complete, no wonder his expression is so relaxed."

Lippi may think so in his heart, but in the locker room, he still behaved very seriously in front of the players: "Boys, I know that each of you is looking forward to the championship, but let you not let this emotion affect your mentality... …if you had taken your chances better, by now I would have been more than happy to celebrate with all of you."

"It's not too late for a good meal, old man, don't worry, we will win." Because of the obvious advantage in the scene, the mentality was relaxed, and everyone was not so dull in the locker room.

"Jiang, I hope it's as you said, of course it's the best." Lippi had a faint smile of relief on his face: "But they will be very crazy in the second half, remember, I only have two requirements: Don't get hurt, don't get sent off for being hotheaded. You are good players, I'm sure you know what to do in a situation like this, but watch out for tricks. Koreans are especially good at this, especially you, Zhou. "

After Lippi finished speaking, he laughed, and then there was a burst of wanton laughter in the locker room.Zhou Tiancheng just raised the corners of his mouth slightly, Lippi reminded everyone that the history of that year was too impressive for the Italians.In addition to the referee, anyone who has experienced what the South Korean players did to Totti and Pirlo on the court knows.

However, in the second half, the South Korean players did not act too aggressively. Although Ji Chengyong turned his gun on Hao Junmin several times and knocked him down the moment he caught the ball, Ji Chengyong immediately reached out. Showed his favor, and was later called to the sidelines alone by Stillik to give a warning.

Stillik made a substitution at the beginning of the second half. The striker Lee Gen-ho, who played in the West Asian Qatar League, was replaced, a penalty area killer similar to Jiang Hao.In fact, Tillik already regretted that he had some conflicts with the team's 1.9-meter-six-meter-tall Jin Xinyu before the start of the Asian Cup and removed him. Now it would be best if there is a big man in front.

As for the midfielder... Stillik has given up. He just wants to send the ball to the forward line as much as possible.

Perhaps the Chinese team's ability to seize opportunities was not good in the first half, which made Stillik feel that there was still room for such a direct method, but Zhou Tiancheng's game style began to change in the second half.Started to go up and stare at Ji Chengyong to press hard.

Stillik's face suddenly became very ugly on the sidelines. In the midfield, he found that Ki Sung-yong was not in the right state. It seemed that he had been like this before the game, and even the final could not excite him.

Stillik thought of the reason, but he still decided to give Ji Chengyong a trust.In fact, there is no more suitable candidate than him.

But what worries him is that Ji Chengyong meets Zhou Tiancheng, just like the Chinese team is completely suppressing the South Korean team now, there is no chance at all.

In the second half, Zhou Tiancheng took the initiative to dribble the ball to attack.He is not going to give South Korea a chance.The entire Asian Cup is a Buddhist style, and this most critical half is time to explode.

At the most critical time, a little explosion is enough. After all, he is the number one star in Asia, worth hundreds of millions of euros, and it is a bit unreasonable to be compared with the opposite star of 4000 million euros.

Counterattack with the ball, pull the ball to change direction, kick and volley, the familiar wave of operations, this time the goalkeeper Jin Chengkui can only look at the ball and sigh, his explosive body is far from the angle where the ball penetrates into the goal.

The perfect ending, all the Chinese fans in the Australian National Stadium stood up and shouted excitedly.The last goal was completed in Zhou Tiancheng's iconic way, just like the Asian Cup four years ago, this is the best ending.

……

Zhou Tiancheng stood in the middle of the podium, holding up the trophy on behalf of the Chinese team.This means that the Chinese team successfully defended the title. Lippi is sincerely happy. He has already stated before that the Chinese team will be the last team he coaches.

Both He Wei and Xu Yang stood up, applauded and joked: "Zhou Tiancheng's mission at the club has been completed, and now he has to move to Manchester United. He has been away for a month, and too many things have happened. Between coming and going, things are people. No. He should go back, go back and see what kind of mess Manchester is. Manchester United is made of iron, Zhou Tiancheng is made of steel... What is Manchester United without him..."
