Chapter 419 Terrible Discipline
"Fans and friends, now you can see through the camera behind me that the Daejeon World Cup stadium is already overcrowded. Fans from all over the world gathered here with great enthusiasm, waiting for the 16-to-8 knockout match between Italy and South Korea. Let’s start, and the most conspicuous ones are naturally the fans of the host country, South Korea!”
"Since the morning, South Korean fans have been hanging around the Daejeon World Cup Stadium in twos and threes. The fans are wearing Taegeuk flags and shouting the slogan "Republic of Korea". Entering the arena, some fans unfurled the banner of "Create Miracles in Daejeon". According to our understanding, in addition to the local fans in Daejeon, cheerleaders from other parts of Korea also gathered around the arena. There were also many fans from abroad, It is estimated that most of them are fans from Italy, and smart Koreans took this opportunity to set up stalls on the side of the road to sell World Cup souvenirs to foreigners. Many religious groups in South Korea also took this opportunity to promote their religion to fans from all over the world. .”
"Many Korean fans have already played "South Korea 2: 0 Italy" as a sign representing the score. They are looking forward to making history here and defeating the Italians!"
"It is worth mentioning that the upcoming duel at the Daejeon World Cup Stadium has been hyped by many Asian media as a decisive battle that is related to the dignity of Asian and European football. With China, Japan and other teams out of the game, the host South Korea has become the winner. Most of the Asian fans support the team, and South Korea's "Seoul Sports" also made detailed comments on the biggest highlight of the game."
"Seoul Sports" believes that the key to be able to defeat the Italian team lies in whether it can successfully block Totti's offensive organization line, the core of the Italian team's offense. In the match against the Portuguese team on the 14th, Hiddink's head coach once asked Jin Tai Ying stared at Pinto and achieved great success, because Hiddink will send Jinnan to block Totti's offensive organization in the Italian team's game. Although Totti's dribbling breakthrough and excellent passing are world-class, as long as they are fully Taking advantage of his shortcoming of being easily excited, launching psychological warfare with him and stimulating his highly tense nerves will surely catch him. I believe that Jin Nanyi, who is known for his tenacity and physical fitness, will be able to successfully contain Totti. And Jin Nan Yi also said that he will never be intimidated by the opponent's fame, and he will definitely beat Totti in this game."
"On the other hand, the Italian center Vieri is 1 meters tall. He has a strong physique, strong impact, good ball control, and strong ability to seize opportunities. He has scored 85 goals in the group stage. Careful layout is required. Under such circumstances, "Seoul Sports" believes that Kim Tae-young is one of the best defenders in the top 3 teams selected by Reuters, and he will take on the important task of marking Vieri in this game .
In this regard, Kim Tae-young also did not show any weakness, claiming that although Vieri's header is very powerful, he still has shortcomings such as slow speed and inability to play with his right foot. He used fighting spirit and speed to make up for his physical disadvantages. It will also inspire me to face the opponent bravely. "
"The entire Daejeon World Cup Stadium was filled with huge cheers. Players from both sides entered the field to do the final warm-up before the game. The screams of the South Korean fans were deafening. On the other side, the Italian fans were also not to be outdone. They in blue jerseys clapped their hands loudly and made soul-stirring crashing sounds, such a strong rhythm suppressed the huge momentum of the South Korean Red Devils cheerleaders who had the upper hand!"
The Italian players spread out quickly on the field, and started the final stage of adapting to the atmosphere and warming up. Looking at the imposing Korean fans, the Italian players were very disdainful.What they have seen and heard in the past few days, especially the personal experience yesterday can hardly make them feel good about this nation, and some players even describe it as despicable in private.
In this game, Italy still let Buffon continue to guard the goal, while Panucci, Juliano, Maldini, and Materazzi formed a new partner on the back line. Will defend Italy's goal to the death.In the midfield, Kenny, Zanetti, Tomasi, and Totti have not changed in any way. The combination of Kenny and Totti in the previous few games has proved enough to be threatening, so for this One arrangement surprised no one.
Finally, on the front line, Vieri started with Del Piero, who saved the team in the third group match.
The moment the Italian superstars came on the field naturally aroused wild cheers from the fans, but when the South Korean team came on the field, all the media reporters took a breath, they were completely like a team of strictly disciplined soldiers.Although the Korean fans in the stands were happily shouting and applauding, more than 20 Korean players lined up in a column and started the warm-up drill neatly.White clothes and gray trousers, four people in a row, from fast to jogging almost in unison.After three laps, another strange scene appeared in their warm-up. All members of the Korean team knelt on one knee and pressed their legs in unison, and then twisted their waists in unison with their arms around their shoulders.
More than 20 people move neatly like a group gymnastics. Although the Italian players warmed up and did exercises uniformly, the strict organization and discipline of the Korean team is extremely surprising. Watching the Koreans train for a moment, you will feel that the stadium is like barracks.The training of the Italian team has never seen such a group scene. After playing, each position is grouped into threes and fours, each practicing their own, talking and laughing, enjoying the joy of football in a loose manner, which is a typical Latin style.
Seeing this scene, the Italian players are no longer joking and laughing. They are not stupid. Just seeing this, they understand that if the Koreans can come here, and the strength and the host’s advantage account for 60.00%, then the rest It is all driven by their discipline and execution.
Kenny in the crowd was even more worried. He used to think that South Korea was able to defeat Italy because of the horrible black whistle, but now he realized that he had forgotten another important point, that is, the terrifying execution ability of the Koreans. With militarized management and will, why can they persist until the end?
It seems that this will definitely be a tragic fight!
Thinking of this, Kenny lowered his head and silently tightened his shoelaces. There was only one thought in his mind. No matter what, he would personally knock down the Koreans and never let the dirtiest World Cup happen again.
The excited screams of South Korean female fans filled the stands. Hundreds of reporters surrounded the field. The South Korean team did their exercises meticulously. No one talked or looked around. .
"It has long been reported that the South Korean national team's management is militarized, and now it is true! According to yesterday's report, South Korean coach Guus Hiddink personally commanded the team to run back and forth, while South Korean The players were silent and serious like soldiers, no one dared to be lazy or act like a big shot. Hiddink shouted GO! GO! GO, the Koreans ran at full speed, and all warm-up subjects were completed collectively.”
"Well, it is indeed the case. Seeing the scene on the court today, I can fully imagine what kind of atmosphere the South Korean team has during training on weekdays."
"It is said that Hiddink often asked the players to surround the city in a big circle, and asked the peripheral assistant coaches and substitutes to continuously throw the ball at the players in the circle. Hiddink asked that the ball must be passed back without landing. The difficulty is obvious. However, as a European, Hiddink loudly blamed the players for every mistake, forcing the South Korean players to take turns like crazy, and every time the South Korean players made a mistake, they had to say sorry, no matter what Whether it is a forward, a defender or a goalkeeper, everyone is in this circle. This is the solid basic training of the Koreans, and it is precisely because of this that the Koreans' footwork and skills have improved so much!"
"Ha, I thought Hiddink, as a westerner, would be more lenient in his management, but that's not the case. He directly gave orders to the players in short English, and even the big names of the Korean team like Ahn Jung-hwan bowed to Hiddink's scolding. , to Hiddink he is like a captain, to Korean players they are recruits undergoing hellish training."
"As a South Korean official put it in an interview: Koreans only believe in hard work and discipline, isn't that the case in Italy?"
After the final warm-up, the players of both sides returned to the locker room to wait for the official start of the game. I have to say that the discipline of the Korean players gave the Italians a great shock and impact. In all fairness, they should do this. It is absolutely impossible.
Cultural edification is one of them, and the other is because there are many superstars in the Italian lineup, who would like to conduct such training under the eyes of tens of thousands of people?However, the discipline of the Koreans reminded the stars, allowing them to kill the slightest contempt in their hearts in time, even the top superstars will not underestimate the strength of the team.
"But having said that, from the Italian starting lineup, it is not difficult to see the changes between this campaign and the first three group matches. Since the central defender Nesta was seriously injured, Maldini, the captain who used to be the left back, replaced the central defender. The role of left-back was replaced by Iuliano, who was the first starter in this World Cup. At the same time, Cannavaro, another main player in the Italian back line, was suspended and unable to play. Materazzi Take his place."
"As for the other change, it comes from the front line. After scoring a golden goal against Mexico in the last game and qualifying 1-1, Piero, the goal hero, also started this campaign."
