Chinese fans and Korean fans are quarreling online, and many people have learned to overturn the wall because of this incident.

But in the distant Australia, it is very calm.

Because the Chinese team still has one group match to play.

In the third group match, the Chinese team played against North Korea.

Gao Zheng did not appear in the lineup.

Perrin rotated significantly.

In fact, the game with North Korea can be regarded as a warm-up match in the quarter-finals, because North Korea and South Korea have some similar football styles, and they are both teams with tenacious styles. Some South Korean opponent teams will also specifically seek North Korea to play warm-up matches.

As a result, the Chinese team did not need to make a deliberate arrangement and achieved this goal in the third round of the group stage.

The substitute of the main players including Gao Zheng is to give them a better rest.

On the other hand, this is also an excellent opportunity to train substitutes.

The game just started, and Sun Ke, who won the first place in the Asian Cup, took the lead for the Chinese team. The game only started for 44 seconds when he scored.

At that time, the North Korean team made a mistake on the defense line. When the defender returned to the goalkeeper, he used too light force. As a result, Sun Ke, who was actively forward, seized the opportunity and shot first and sent the ball into the North Korean team's goal.

After having a very good start, the Chinese team gradually grasped the situation on the field and even played a frontcourt offensive cooperation that was exclaimed by the commentator as "Barcelona-style". However, in the end, Yu Hai followed up a little slower in front of the goal and missed the opportunity to expand the score.

In the 42nd minute, the Chinese team finally scored again, and Sun Ke jumped to the top at the back point, expanding the score to 2:0.

After leading two goals, everyone felt relieved and felt that they must have won the game.

Unexpectedly, the situation changed suddenly in the second half. The North Korean team rushed and beat hard as soon as they started, making full use of their tenacious style and good at fighting. The players of the Chinese team were a little too busy to take care of themselves.

In the 55th minute, after a North Korean team shot was cleared by a Chinese player on the goal line, the football hit Gao Lin's back and bounced into the net again.

The Chinese team was recovered by North Korea.

The morale of the North Korean team, which scored a goal, was getting stronger and stronger, while the Chinese team was a little panicked.

In the last game against Uzbekistan, everyone was praising the other Chinese players for their outstanding performance after Gao Zheng was restricted. As a result, when Gao Zheng was not on the court in this game, the Chinese team had some real intentions.

Only then did everyone know that the root cause of determining the performance of other Chinese players is whether Gao Zheng is on the court. If Gao Zheng is on the court, even if he is temporarily restricted by his opponent, he can provide help and support to other teammates. The most important support comes from confidence. As long as Gao Zheng is still on the court, other Chinese players will not panic, because they believe that Gao Zheng will always have a way to solve the difficulties.

But if Gao Zheng is not on the court, what's the use of even his ability?

Faced with the aggressive offensive of North Korea, the Chinese team played quite passively, which was basically completely different from the first half.

In fact, even if the Chinese team loses this game, it will not affect their qualifying as the first in the group.

However, before the match against the South Korean team, if they lose to their peninsula brothers, North Korea, the blow to morale and confidence would be a huge blow.

Perrin absolutely cannot accept such a result.

So in the 66th minute, he replaced Gao Zheng with Gao Lin who scored an own goal.

Before Gao Zheng came on the court, the Chinese fans in the stands were actually a little dissatisfied with the performance of the internationals. After all, they played so well in the first half, but in the second half, they were like group sleepwalking.

So when Gao Zheng came on the court, the Chinese fans in the stands burst into loud cheers.

It's like a savior is coming.

For Chinese football, Gao Zheng is really like a savior...

After Gao Zheng came on the court, the situation on the court quickly stabilized. Sure enough, with Gao Zheng on the court and without Gao Zheng on the court, the feeling of other Chinese players was completely different.

After asking about the situation again, the Chinese team began to counterattack.

And in the 82nd minute, Gao Zheng rarely used his head to push the football into the North Korean team's goal in the penalty area.

3:1, the Chinese team secured the victory!

In the end, the score was maintained to midfield, and the Chinese team defeated North Korea and ended their group stage trip to this Asian Cup with three consecutive victories.

Although he won the ball, head coach Perrin was not satisfied with the team's performance.

After the game, everyone returned to the locker room. Perrin was furious and threw all the tactical boards.

"Looking at the performance in the second half, I can't believe that this is the team that won two consecutive games before?! What kind of shit did you play? Did the previous two consecutive games make you inflated? They all thought they were invincible? They thought they could win anyway? Don't forget, you are a team that is going to compete with South Korea for bayonets! In this state, I think you are just waiting to become the losers of the Koreans!"

The players were scolded by Perrin so much that they dared not look up.

After being with Perrin for so long, this is the first time they have seen this elegant coach so angry.

After a while, Perrin slowed down and said, "I hope the second half of this game can help you learn from your lessons and wake you up. I think you all know more about how the Korean media view the next game. If you want to be the laughing stock of Koreans, please continue. To put it bluntly, I will definitely leave China in the future. The ridicule of Koreans will not hurt me. But you are different. You are Chinese. The ridicule and ridicule of Koreans will always be with you. This is a brand that hits you, and you can't even hide it!"

After saying that, he went out to hold a press conference.

Leaving a room of players to be silent, the locker room, which is usually lively, is quiet like a morgue at this moment.

After a while, the team captain Zheng Zhi stood up: "The coach is right. We did make mistakes in this game. But it is not scary to make mistakes. What is scary is that we don't know what we are making mistakes. Now we know that we have made mistakes, and the next thing is how we will not make mistakes again. I believe that when facing South Korea, we will not be the same as when facing North Korea. There is no need to mobilize the South Korean team, and I have no doubt about this. I hope that we will prove ourselves on the court together at that time."
