Chapter 425 Korean Political Football ([-])
"The referee Moreno turned a blind eye to Kenny's falling to the ground, and he signaled the game to continue!!! Did he think that Kenny flopped?" The so-called "vacuum cleaner" South Korean player Kim Nam amidst the exclamation of the commentators Once again snatched the ball at his feet and ran towards the Italian half. Obviously, the Koreans regarded this time as their best chance to counterattack!
Seeing such a situation, although the Italian players were all indignant and concerned about Kenny's condition, they could only grit their teeth and chase after the ball.The best way now is to intercept the Koreans to get the ball back, and then kick the ball out of bounds to stop the game. Otherwise, relying on these shameless Koreans, no one will care about Kenny's injury!Even this group of shameless people want such an opportunity!
Amidst the furious scolding of the Italian fans in the stands, Kim Nam-il dribbled the ball all the way deep. Tomasi never thought that the Koreans were so shameless. When it was on, Jin Nanyi kicked towards Xue Qixuan on the left side of the front field.As one of the two offensive arrows personally identified by Hiddink in this game, Xue Qixuan has not played in South Korea's domestic league. Instead, he joined the Belgian Anderlecht team directly after graduating from Gwangun University in 2000.
As early as when he was a college player, many people in the circle suggested that he would come to the Japanese J-League to develop, because this is the choice of most Korean players.But Xue Qixuan didn't think so, he dreamed of playing football in Europe.He knows the difference between his country's football and the top clubs in Europe, so he decided to start with the Belgian league, which is not very high level, and develop his career step by step. He thinks this is the most ideal choice.And other South Korean players such as Ahn Jung-hwan and Lee Dong-guk have directly joined the highest-level European leagues, where they have no place at all, and their lives are not going well.
I have to say that Xue Qixuan's choice is very correct. He gradually became the main force in the Belgian Anderlecht team and became a rare player with a European style among Asian players. This same technical and tactical style also made him favored by more clubs. Favored, but most of his actions in this game were also thoroughly understood by the Italians. Maldini intercepted the ball with a clean steal on the way to catch the ball.Then Maldini kicked the ball out of bounds, and the Italian players immediately divided into two teams when they saw this scene. They surrounded the referee Moreno again and ran quickly. To the position where Kenny was.
At this time, Kenny was already carried to the sideline by the angry Zoff commanding the medical staff. When the linesman and the fourth official Qiqi signaled Zoff, saying that he interfered with the continuation of the game, this usually gentleman The graceful Italian coach roared angrily: "Damn! Look at what you are doing, you are not law enforcement officers who uphold justice, but now?? What are you doing!"
Speaking of Zoff pointing to the cold sweat, Kenny shouted with a painful expression: "Look at my player! He has been violated so brutally and suffered such severe trauma, but what about you? Are you still going to complain to me now? Is FIFA suing me for interfering with the match?"
Under Zoff's choking, the border judges and the fourth official couldn't say anything after all, they could only comfort Zoff constantly, and there was nothing they could do about it.Let’s not talk about whether they have accepted bribes from the Korean Football Association. Even if they have different opinions on the penalty on the field, there will always be only one person who can finally decide all the penalties on the field, and that is the referee Moreno. Of the four officials, only one can give advice and the other can maintain order.
At this time, the arena was in chaos. When the Italian players were dissatisfied with the referee's penalty for the third time, the boos and scolding made the Koreans finally stop their small actions, knowing that they had missed the best opportunity. The counterattackers can only stand still and watch the development of the situation on the field.The most worrying thing at this moment is Kenny's injury. Through the big screen and TV playback, people can clearly see what kind of violation this player who was like a god descended from the world has just experienced.
The moment when Korean Kim Nam-il fiercely kicked Kenny's heel was enough to make everyone tremble.Aspirations for Kenny scoring a goal!When the camera once again caught Kenny showing a painful expression under the examination of the team doctor, everyone was extremely worried. While cursing the Koreans for being shameless, they also became worried for Kenny. It must not be an Achilles tendon injury!
Between the heel and the calf is the Achilles tendon, which is thick, strong and tightly stretched. The Achilles tendon is about 15cm long and is the thickest tendon in the human body. People rely on this strong tendon for walking, running and jumping. If the Achilles tendon is completely broken, it will be difficult to move an inch.It is conceivable that the Achilles tendon, which is so important to human movement, is definitely one of the most vulnerable parts of athletes, and the most famous star among the many athletes suffering from Achilles tendon injuries is the Dutch striker Marco van Basten , one of the all-powerful "Dutch Three Musketeers" retired hastily before he was 31 due to an Achilles tendon injury.
Moreover, Achilles tendon injuries are often accompanied by several months of treatment and recuperation period. If this is the case, it will have an extremely fatal impact on Kenny who is in the rapid rise!
"Do you feel better Loris, you can try to move, use your nerves to control your calf muscles, do you have a numb feeling?" The medical staff put the ice aside and helped Kenny stretch his right leg. asked seriously.
"Nope." At this time, Kenny's eyes were already red, and the moment Jin Nan kicked him, the huge pain almost made him faint for a while. Although he was much better at this time, the pain was still excruciating. Sweating.After hearing what the medical staff said, he gritted his teeth and moved his calf muscles according to the instructions, and then said with some difficulty.The Italian players around him were breathless and silent when they heard the conversation between the two, they knew that the time for the verdict had come!
But what made everyone feel fortunate was that the team doctor was obviously relieved after hearing Kenny's answer. He hesitated and said to Zoff who was standing aside worriedly: "Mr. Loris' injury is not too serious. Fortunately, Flawed injury, but if you want to continue the game, I am afraid that you need at least ten minutes of buffer time!"
Ten minutes?
Hearing this sentence, Zoff nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. As the World Cup entered the most intense knockout stage, Kenny's speed became more and more important to Italy and became less and less exchangeable.After hearing the good news that Kenny can continue to fight, it is definitely very beneficial to Italy. Nesta's injury has made the defense a little loose, and now Kenny's injury has not damaged the offensive system. But that's it!
But what needs to be decided is what to do in these ten minutes?Zoff had to come up with a solution, whether to allow the team to fight with [-] points for the time being, or take a safe plan to let Kenny end the game, which is more safe treatment?Although the referee in this game has obvious bias now, in Zoff's view, with a lead of one goal, it should not be a problem for Italy to win and advance without accident!
Thinking of this, Zoff glanced at Zambrotta behind him, ready to make substitutions and adjustments, but at this moment, Kenny held back the pain and looked at Zoff with difficulty and said, "Sir, I can still play. , let me rest for a few minutes, I can continue to play! Please... believe me!"
Although there are still sharp pains in the Achilles tendon, how can Kenny want to end here!How can you accept this end!How can he be reconciled to these Korean bastards who are so cruel to him, he has always been a person who must take revenge, not to mention that the score of 1:0 is far from keeping Italy out of danger!He is absolutely not reconciled to leaving the battlefield at this time!
"It seems that the referee Moreno didn't think there was anything wrong with his penalty. He didn't mean to add any penalty to Jin Nanyi. I have to say that this was definitely a malicious foul, but the referee's decision at this time was a decision. Everything! This may be a bit dangerous, and no penalty for such a foul will inevitably make the Italian players feel a lot of anger, which is very important for the game."
"Oh, after a short period of treatment, Kenny started to move around with the help of the assistant coach, and Italy did not choose to choose someone, which means that at least they have to face the game with one less player before Kenny comes on the field. Situation! This will be the best chance for the hosts to equalize the score, and it will also be a great test for the Italian defense! After both players returned to the field, the game restarted, and the South Korean team took a penalty!"
"Song Zongguo took a throw-in and Ahn Jung-hwan knocked back. This is a relatively safe decision. Now the Italian team has greatly shrunk their front line. The Koreans must control the ball in their own hands before they press down heavily. In your hands, you can't attack rashly!"
"No one knows when Kenny will return to the game, and no one knows when Italy will complete the 11-man squad, so every attack during this period must be cautious and try to be as consistent as possible. Fight down!"
"In the previous games, the South Korean team has always put the main offensive momentum on the right side of Italy, but although the momentum is very strong, it has not made any breakthrough progress. I believe that the South Korean coach Guus Hiddink is also aware of this situation. Yes, I wonder what adjustments he will make in the next important opportunity?"
