On the evening of April 20, 2023, Beijing time, the second round of the group stage of the U23 Asian Cup began, with China U23 facing South Korea U23. If the Chinese team cannot win this game, they will be eliminated. Considering that it is facing the South Korean team, I believe that the vast majority of Chinese people are not optimistic about this game. However, judging from the first half of the game, the performance of the national football team U23 made us seem to have some "eye-catching" feelings. 5 shots in 20 minutes and very quality. If it weren't for the poor shooting skills, the first half would have been at least 2-0 ahead. But please believe that the loss of the national football team has never disappointed you. On the premise that the Chinese team had the advantage in the first half, the South Korean team took advantage of an inconspicuous opportunity to score and fell behind 0-1.
The national football team U23 strengthened the pressing of the whole court after the opening, and the speed of forward movement was very fast, and the idea of attacking was relatively clear. Even in the first 10 minutes of the game, China's U23 team has been pressing the South Korean team to play, and it was not until the 11th minute that the South Korean team had the first long-range shot on goal, but it was ridiculously high.
Baihram was very active in the first half, but alas, the shooting skills were really poor. For example, in the 15th minute, Baihelam broke the ball in front of the goal, and after facing the goalkeeper alone, the shot turned out to be particularly positive.
Then Baihelam also had a shot very close to the goal, but it turned out to be high. Those two chances were almost certain goals, and they didn't take them.
On the football field, wasting too much opportunity is tantamount to "suicide", and repeated missed opportunities will be punished. In the 34th minute, the South Korean team took advantage of an opportunity to complete a kick on the goal, but the goal was inexplicably scored. At that time, Kang Sang-yun gave the ball to Lee Yong-jun on the right side, and Lee Yong-jun hit the goal from a small angle. This goal is in stark contrast to the national football team's shots, and the angle and strength of our players' one-shot shots are the real gap between Chinese and Korean football.
South Korea's morale improved after scoring the goal, and in the 39th minute, their shot grazed the post and almost extended the score to 2-0.
The U23 coach of the national football team stood on the sidelines, holding his chin, and he didn't know what he was thinking, perhaps, he really couldn't take it. The national football team actually played really well in the first half, but the South Korean team's three-by-three attack easily scored the ball, which is really embarrassing. It should be said that this is the Chinese team we are familiar with, after they played a good game for 25 minutes, the Chinese team is back.
