The fifth round of the K2 league midweek staged a red card battle, and the red card on the field set an embarrassing record
In the middle of this week, the 2022 Korean Football K2 League kicked out five matches, with the remaining ten teams playing five matches except for Gyeongnam FC's bye in this round. In this round, 11 goals were scored in five matches, with the exception of the match between Daejeon and Ansan, which scored in the other four matches. Among them, Asan beat Gimpo 4-0 away, creating a record for the largest point difference in this round. Jeonnam beat Bucheon 2-1 at home and Gwangju beat Seoul 2-1, which also gave all the teams in the K2 league this season a taste of "defeat". FC Anyang defeated Busan IPark, who was absent from the new crown, 1-0 at home. At the end of this round, FC Anyang also replaced Bucheon FC1995 and jumped to the top of the standings.
However, these are not the focus of this round. Because in terms of red and yellow card data, this round set the highest since the beginning of the tournament, with 20 yellow cards and 7 red cards in five games! And there were red cards on the field, including 2 red cards in each match between Daejeon Hana and Andan Greeners, Gwangju FC and Seoul Yi'e, which is a rare record.
For those teams that are red, they will all face the dilemma of suspension of the main players at the weekend. The 5 direct red cards for violent fouls (elbow strikes, back shovels, head bumps into each other's faces) also reflect the increasingly impatient mentality of the players, which requires the vigilance of the teams.
The COVID-19 pandemic has once again invaded South Korea, and the opening match of the women's football league has been postponed
In March 2022, "Omi Kerong" attacked South Korea in an all-round way, and for the professional sports circle, the re-attack of the new crown epidemic also affected the normal order of people. Following the infection of up to 40 players and coaches in the K-League of men's football, athletes at all levels of the League in South Korea have also experienced symptoms of athlete infection. In order to prevent the further spread of the epidemic, the Korean Women's Football League has decided that the 2022 Korean Women's Professional Football League, which was scheduled to start on March 19, will be postponed to April 2. I hope that spring can bloom and truly usher in a spring without a virus.
Son Played 80 minutes as Spurs beat Brighton
In the early hours of yesterday morning, a supplementary match of the 2021-22 Premier League was held, and Son Heung-min's Tottenham Hotspur beat Brighton 2-0, and after scoring the crucial three points, it was only three points away from fourth-place Arsenal, still retaining the hope of entering the Champions League. In this campaign, Son Xingyu played 80 minutes, but did not have a prominent performance. After the game, a number of British media rated Son Heung-min as the lowest score in tottenham's frontcourt and believed that he needed a break and had been lost in Conte's tactics. In fact, after Sun Xingyu suffered from the new crown pneumonia twice, his competitive status has declined, and I don't know if it is the impact of the sequelae of the new crown. Of course, we hope that Son Heung-min can prove himself again and continue to prove the value of his existence at a high level of competition.
