Chapter 430 The Italian Hero

On the evening of June 6, the last match of the 18/2002 finals of the 1 World Cup was played between the Italian team and the South Korean team. As a result, the South Korean team Ahn Jung-hwan scored a golden goal before the end of overtime, making the team a historic victory. Entering the quarter-finals, after the game, the Dutch coach Hiddink of the South Korean team said that this victory was "unique": "I am very, very happy and very, very satisfied. The Italian team is a world football powerhouse, and what Korean players have achieved is unique. The team can continue to move forward because we have written a new history for Korea, and I am happy for the Korean people. Our fans are very professional, they cheered for us non-stop from the beginning to the end, but I think the fans It's time for us to celebrate." Hiddink said looking at tens of thousands of excited fans.

"We started the game very restrained, but I am very satisfied with the victory over a team with a strong fighting capacity. I know the only thing the players can do tonight is that I will not restrain them, but What I want to say is that we have a lot of things to do before we play Spain. I don't care what people say tonight. I watched Spain play, I am very happy to play Spain, I know them, but I Tonight will not care. Spain is in my heart and I am looking forward to playing against the players I have coached before."

This is something that Kenny still remembers. After the South Korean team won the final victory in the previous life, South Korean coach Guus Hiddink said in an interview. It is undoubtedly very irritating to ignore something that is unfair and not to mention it at all.But at this moment, Hiddink couldn't laugh, and couldn't express his joy, because the situation was in jeopardy.

"Isn't the game over yet? I want to go back to the game! The team needs me! My teammates need me!" When Kenny woke up from a brief "coma", everyone was impressed by his professionalism and tenacious will Impressed!Totti wanted to keep Kenny with tears in his eyes, but Kenny resolutely pushed him away and walked towards the court. What an impassioned scene!A great warrior inherits the spirit of a Roman legionary, and he is not fighting alone!
In an interview after the game, a medical staff even said with tears in his eyes: "This is still such a touching moment! When a player wakes up from a coma after being unfairly treated and violated, from When he broke free under the call of death, his first reaction was not to be thankful that he survived, but to pay attention to the unfinished game! At this moment, he is absolutely great, this is the touch that football brings to us! This is The impact of competitive sports on us!"

At the same time, Tomasi standing behind Kenny also had tears in his eyes: "Brother, you scared me to death!"

However, on the other side of the court, the Ecuadorian referee Moreno was driven into a dilemma. Facing almost one-sided condemnation and public opinion, although he only showed Xue Qixuan a yellow card, the Koreans retained eleven players.But in the next game, his penalty was restrained a lot. After all, although the Koreans gave him a lot of money, he has never been able to live on that money for a lifetime!If he doesn't want to be investigated, he must do the necessary restraint.

This also caused a huge contrast in the situation on the field after the restart of the game. Although the South Korean players adjusted their state immediately, they were inevitably at a disadvantage in the face of the united Italians. The singing of the fans also became much sadder: "Arirang, Arirang, Arirang! My husband has crossed mountains and mountains, and the journey is far away. Why are you willing to leave me behind? You will not be able to leave the house within ten miles. Homesick! Arirang, Arirang, Arirang! My lord has crossed mountains and ridges, the journey is far away, the sky is full of stars in the sunny night, and our hearts are full of dreams! Arirang, Arirang, Arirang! !My lord has crossed mountains and ridges, the journey is far away, the mountain over there is Mt. Paektu, and there are flowers blooming in the winter solstice!!"

Under round after round of attacks by the Italians, the Koreans fell into a vicious circle of passive defense, and in many cases they simply had no power to fight back!Without the help of the referee, bravery alone is definitely not enough for the Italians to fight with all their firepower, instead of pulling out their stances. Chung Mong-joon, chairman of the Korean Football Association, was very anxious to see such a situation.

"Piero took the ball from the left side of the front court and was tripped by Korean player Kim Tae Young. It was a free kick. It was still Totti's penalty kick, and the free kick was hoisted to the left side of the penalty area. Piero signaled when he responded The opponent's Kim Tae Young fouled, but the referee Murano did not make a penalty, and the Korean escaped by luck!"

"The South Korean team entered the World Cup finals for the first time in 1954. Since 1986, they have become representatives of Asia for four consecutive World Cups. However, the fact that they have not won a single game in 14 games and have never qualified for the group stage makes them extremely embarrassing. But this World Cup However, their performance is impressive, and they are now working hard to enter the quarter-finals. On the other hand, Italy has won the World Cup three times, in 1934, 1938 and 1982. In the history of the World Cup, the Italian team won 66 games and 38 The record of 16 draws and 12 losses ranks third after Brazil and Germany."

"The South Korean team's midfielder has an outside kick from the right. Hong Myung-bo goes straight to the center of the frontcourt. Ahn Jung-hwan struggles to hold the ball and runs towards the top of the penalty area. The Italian defenders soon arrive. Juliano puts a shovel. Beautiful! He intercepted the attack of the Korean! We noticed that after receiving a yellow card, the actions and performance of the Korean player Xue Qixuan were much quieter! He was completely at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Totti!! !"

"This is an offensive opportunity for Italy. Kenny, who played again with an injury, made a pass from the left side of the penalty area. Del Piero shot with his left foot, hit the opponent and popped out of the sideline!!!! This is another threatening pass from Kenny Ball! I have to say that in the position of the winger, Kenny played a miraculous effect. Both Kim Nam-il and Seol Ki-hyun relied on fouls to stop him. Now, after receiving a yellow card, the Korean faced Toto Tee and Kenny's cross-swapping lines are almost useless!!!"

"There are less than 10 minutes left! The score on the field is still 1:0 and Italy leads. It seems that the Koreans have to make changes!!!"
