"There was a fierce conflict between the China team and the South Korean team on the field, which originated from Li Tianxiu's serious injury. We need to objectively discuss everything that happened in just a few seconds."
"My point is that Liu Yi did not commit a malicious foul. Through the slow-motion replay, it can be seen that Qin Xiong, Li Tianxiu, and Liu Yi all had the possibility of controlling the football. In terms of priority, Qin Xiong is first, Li Tianxiu is second, and Liu Yi is third. In the heat of the game, within a very short range, the players will not be given more time to think. If there is a chance to grab the ball, this is the most normal football scramble principle. Qin Xiong took the lead to touch the ball. He controlled the football and chose to break the siege, while Li Tianxiu chose to shovel. His purpose was not to let Qin Xiong control the ball. Liu Yi also chose to shovel because he was worried that Li Tianxiu would shovel the ball to his teammates. If Liu Yi's action was a malicious foul, then Li Tianxiu's action was also a malicious foul. We cannot use Li Tianxiu's injury in the scramble as the basis to conclude that Liu Yi committed a malicious foul. This is completely wrong.
The Singaporean referee took the approach of giving each player 50 strikes. He showed Qin Xiong, Li Tianxiu, and Liu Yi a yellow card each.
Qin Xiong felt unreasonable after being shown a yellow card. He asked the referee, "What did I do?"
The referee stepped back and called Qin Xiong in front of him. He covered his mouth and explained to him in a low voice.
Li Tianxiu was injured. Qin Xiong did not commit a foul. Even if his ball to break the siege hit Li Tianxiu's face, it was impossible to judge whether he intended to do so. However, the referee thought that Qin Xiong's action of pushing Li Rongbiao also intensified the conflict between the two sides.
Qin Xiong accepted the explanation and then nodded to the referee to show that he accepted the punishment.
After explaining to Qin Xiong, the referee ran to the South Korean team and showed Li Rongbiao a yellow card.
Obviously, Li Rongbiao's action of rushing to Liu Yi immediately after Li Tianxiu was injured was also an act of provocation.
The Seoul World Cup stadium was full of boos. The South Korean fans were naturally dissatisfied with the referee's decision.
It looked like two players on both sides were given yellow cards.
But the South Korean team had a player who was seriously injured and left the field!
The ball was still in the hands of the China team!
The Korean team had to make a substitution. Other than Lee Tianxiu who had to withdraw due to injury, Park Chu-Yong was also substituted off the field.
Xue Qixuan and Zheng Jinghao were replaced.
Pu Chu-Yong walked out of the field dejectedly and then bowed to the stands. This was supposed to be a good opportunity for him. If it were not for the injuries in the team's front line and Xue Qixuan's tiredness after returning from overseas from playing in the English Football League Championship, he would not have been in the starting lineup. In the end, he messed up the game that was supposed to be his usurper!
. Xue Qixuan played for the English Championship team, Wolverhampton Wanderers. The English Championship had 46 league games in a season. In addition to England's EFL Cup and FA Cup, the powerhouse teams could use strong substitutes or simply train rookies in the cup. But for a team like Wolverhampton Wanderers, it was no different from giving up if they dared to use a large number of substitutes or rookies in the cup.
Therefore, although Xue Qixuan did not have to play in Europe with Wolverhampton Wanderers, he was actually more exhausted in the English game than Qin Xiong. In addition, Qin Xiong came to South Korea early because of the suspension of the English Premier League. Xue Qixuan had only returned to South Korea two days ago. Naturally, his energy was limited. The coaching team hid him for insurance purposes. They wanted to give him 30 minutes, but they did not expect to use him early because of the team's bad situation.
The South Korean team made a big adjustment in the first half. Ahn Zhenghwan's performance in the game was average. The other two forwards were replaced, and the South Korean team's offense became very chaotic.
Just before the end of the first half, Xue Qixuan and Zheng Jinghao made a mistake in their cooperation. The two of them had different ideas of passing the ball. Xue Qixuan passed the ball to Zheng Jinghao, but Zheng Jinghao ran in advance and could not receive it. Instead, the football fell to Sun Jihai's feet.
Sun Jihai passed the ball to Qin Xiong, and Park Ji-sung quickly rushed to intercept Qin Xiong. He would not rashly lose his center of gravity. Instead, he blocked Qin Xiong's path. If Qin Xiong moved, he would block his forward path.
However, Qin Xiong pointed directly in front of Sun Jihai. Sun Jihai decisively ran forward. Qin Xiong sent a diagonal pass out. Sun Jihai flew forward on the flank and strode forward with the ball.
When there was enough open space, the China team's chances of counterattacking were very good!
But the key problem was that if there was no Qin Xiong as the leader in cooperation, the strategy was not only simple, but there was also not much advantage in a one-on-one.
The South Korean team's attention on Qin Xiong was not a child's play. The reason why Qin Xiong was quiet was because he would observe the opponent's movements, seize the best opportunity, and then carry out a devastating explosion.
This time, even though Qin Xiong was also running forward, because Park Ji-sung was following him like a shadow, Qin Xiong slowed down after half the court. He didn't want his teammates to hesitate, and he also wanted to create more space for his teammates to attack. He was attracting Park Ji-sung and Li Yirong's attention.
Sun Jihai carried out a featureless pass on the flank. Although Li Jinyu jumped near the landing point, Song Zhongguo still steadily cleared the ball with a header. However, his clearance ball flew in front of Zhao Yuanxi. Shao Jiayi, who was one step ahead of Zhao Yuanxi, used her chest to unload the ball and was about to rush directly in front of Zhao Yuanxi!
Zhao Yuanxi reached out and pulled Shao Jiayi down in a hurry.
The referee immediately whistled and ran over to show a yellow card to Zhao Yuanxi.
Shao Jiayi rolled on the ground, and Li Jinyu retreated and kicked the ball to Shao Jiayi.
Shao Jiayi pressed the ball on the foul spot, and waited for the referee to retreat before suddenly passing the ball horizontally.
Li Jinyu originally did not press the penalty area, so the South Korean team's defensive line was outside the penalty area. At this time, Shao Jiayi passed the ball horizontally, and the South Korean team was shocked from behind, the player who rushed up was Qin Xiong!
The China team's offense revolved around Qin Xiong!
Of course, Shao Jiayi would always pay attention to Qin Xiong's movements.
When Qin Xiong gently turned his head to indicate in front of him, Shao Jiayi did not even think about it and passed the ball horizontally.
Qin Xiong's speed was too fast. Li Yirong and Park Ji-sung, who were originally following him, were directly left behind after Qin Xiong started first.
The football was passed horizontally, and Qin Xiong gently flicked the ball with the outer instep of his left foot in front of Kim Nan. The football flew up lightly, and Qin Xiong ran another step forward and made a move that shocked the entire audience.
The back heel of his right foot knocked the football forward when it fell!
The South Korean team's defensive line first saw Qin Xiong rush over like a god of war, and then saw the football flying from behind him!
At that moment, all the South Korean players in front of Qin Xiong were dumbfounded.
A rainbow pass!
Qin Xiong rushed from Song Zhongguo's side into the penalty area. Song Zhongguo turned around and tried to block Qin Xiong's advance with a physical confrontation. However, he did not expect that he would be knocked down by Qin Xiong despite having played against him in the Eredivisie last season!
In fact, his center of gravity was not as stable as Qin Xiong when he turned around. In addition, Qin Xiong had deliberately improved his muscle strength through honing in the Premier League, so he directly crushed Song Zhongguo!
At the penalty spot in the penalty area, Qin Xiong took the lead to run to the football's landing spot. Song Zhongguo fell to the ground, and Choi Jhenzhe rushed diagonally in front of Qin Xiong. The football fell, and Qin Xiong used his left thigh to bounce the ball again. It was in the opposite direction of Choi Jhenzhe's running. Choi Jhenzhe could only watch the football fly slightly over his head. Again!
After Qin Xiong brushed past him, he looked at the falling football, and his right leg directly volleyed in the air!
He stretched his body into a pleasing posture, and his right foot deliberately lowered the football. He kicked the ball with a rebound. The football bounced off the ground and flew into the upper right corner of the South Korean goal!
