In order to participate in the next Indian Women's Asian Cup, the South Korean women's football team recently announced the 23-man squad. Before the game, foreign coach Colin Bell said harshly, to the effect that "we must break the hegemony of China, Japan and Australia in the Asian Cup of women's football"! Why is the Korean women's football team so confident? It may be directly related to the previous 0-0 upset draw in the warm-up match against the world's No. 1.
As we all know, last year's China-South Korea women's football team two-legged Olympic preliminary play-off, the overall performance of the Korean women's football team was amazing, especially in the second leg of the first half of the consecutive 2 goals to force the Chinese women's football team into a desperate situation, if it were not for Wang Shuang's free kick in the second half of the direct bombardment + extra time staged a kill, the Chinese women's football team is impossible to achieve the total score of 4-3 crazy reversal to advance to the Tokyo Olympic Games.
South Korean women's football has three characteristics: two wings of offensive means are rich and fast; secondly, the midfield is high-pressure and fierce, intercepting and counterattacking; in addition, the backline is recovered in time, forming layers of superimposed position protection, if there is no world-class star + stunning footwork, it is difficult to pry open the Goal of the South Korean team.
Therefore, the Korean women's football team, which finally missed the first time in history to enter the Olympic Games 3-4, did not lose in some sense, they just lacked opportunities, and in recent years, the Number of Korean women's football internationals playing for European clubs has also increased.
The Next Asian Cup for the Indian Women's Football Team is a great opportunity for the Korean women's football team. Recently, the South Korean women's football team announced the 23-man squad, and head coach Colling Bell put down harsh words at the relevant press conference before the departure: "Australia, Japan and China are the strongest contenders for the championship, but our goal is to break their hegemony in Asian women's football." ”
Japan women's football, Australia and China women's football team as the 2014, 2018 two consecutive Asian Cup champions and runners-up, especially the Chinese women's football team, has won a total of 8 Asian Cup championships, including a wave of 7 consecutive championships! Defending champion Japan women's football team is not bad, the last two Asian Cups have won two consecutive championships, followed by the last two Asian Cups to win the runner-up Australia!
Overall, in terms of Asian Cup results, the Korean women's football team is indeed quite miserable! Colin Bell's above speech has a very clear goal, that is, to break the hegemony of "China, Japan and Australia" over the Women's Asian Cup!
From last year's China-South Korea women's football two-legged Olympic preliminary play-off, it can be clearly seen that the Korean women's football team has indeed improved a lot in recent years, and it is not a big problem to break the wrist with the Chinese women's football team, but if you want to sweep the Chinese women's football team, the Japanese women's football team and the Australian women's football team in one breath, I think it is a little too exaggerated?
There are, but not all, ingredients in chicken blood, which may be related to a previous high-quality warm-up match. In late October last year, the South Korean women's football team went to the United States to challenge the world's No. 1 U.S. women's soccer team, and the South Korean women's soccer team that played away performed eye-catching, creating no less opportunities than the world's No. 1, midfield high-pressure pressing, rapid counterattack, two wings of changeable offensive means, backline stability and other aspects of stunning performance, in addition to the brave goalkeeper, who has blocked the must-score of the U.S. women's football team several times.
In the end, the South Korean women's soccer team drew 0-0 away from home with the world's No. 1 U.S. women's soccer team, and ended the devil's record of 22 consecutive home wins in the U.S. women's soccer team! After this campaign, I think the Korean women's football team is a little inflated, but it may not be, because after missing the Tokyo Olympic Games, the Korean women's football team must regain confidence in the competition next, so it is not unreasonable to aim for "champion".
The next Asian Cup of Indian women's football on January 20, although the Chinese women's football team is the strongest in Group A, but the elimination of the future can not be taken lightly, whether it is facing the Japanese women's football team or the Australian women's football team or the Korean women's football team, the Chinese women's football team does not have an absolute advantage. Therefore, it is imperative that the Chinese women's football team try to run into a good lineup and technical tactics in the group stage is the best policy, and doing a good job is the real truth. What do you think about that?
