On the night of May 9, Beijing time, the men's football play-offs of the Paris Olympics staged a tense and fierce competition, and the Indonesian Olympic and Guinean national Olympic Games launched a desperate showdown.
After a tough battle, Guinea narrowly defeated Indonesia 1-0 to qualify for the Paris Olympics, while Indonesia unfortunately missed out on the round of 16.
This match also drew a perfect end to the men's football round of 16 at the Paris Olympics, how will the Asian team perform?
Prior to this, the sixth edition of the U23 Asian Cup had come to an end, with Japan, Uzbekistan and Iraq qualifying for the Paris Olympics with outstanding performances.
However, Indonesia was unable to finish in the top three at the Asian Cup, so they had to seize the opportunity to play the play-offs in the hope of achieving their Olympic dreams.
For Indonesia, this match is of great significance.
They represent not only the glory of their country, but also the level of football in the entire Asian region.
They came from Qatar with hopes and dreams and went all out to meet this crucial match.
Faced with the gap in physical fitness and technique, the Indonesian Olympic players seem to be at a loss.
At the start of the game, they tried to keep the game on the ball, but it soon became clear that the Guinean players were far more physical than expected, making it difficult for them to build an effective attack.
This also made some netizens sigh: It seems that physical training still needs to be strengthened, and you can't beat your opponent by technique alone.
In the 20th minute of the first half, Guinea were awarded a penalty kick, which was the opportunity for them to take the lead.
Although the Indonesian goalkeeper made the right judgment, the penalty kick was accurately hit into the net, leaving the Indonesian defence passive.
Alas, penalty kicks, sometimes it's just such a split second mistake that can determine the direction of the whole game.
One fan lamented.
Indonesia tried to step up their offensive after conceding a goal, but Guinea's defence gave their opponents no respite.
Despite the occasional threatening Indonesian attack, Guinea's defence is impregnable and it has always been difficult for them to develop effective shots.
Our attacks were too easy to intercept by our opponents, and it seemed that we needed to improve our coordination and speed.
A netizen commented.
As the second half progressed, the Indonesian Olympic team stepped up their offensive and tried to find an equalizer.
However, Guinea's players have become more tenacious and their defensive performances have been impressive.
It seems that our players still have some shortcomings on the defensive end, and we have to strengthen our defensive awareness.
Another fan expressed concern.
Despite the Indonesian Olympic team's all-out efforts, they were unable to change the score as the match drew to a close.
At the same time, the Guinean Olympic Games also missed several opportunities to expand the score, leaving many spectators waiting with bated breath.
It was a tense game, who would have thought that penalties would become the key to the outcome.
No. 1 Ball Maze Feeling 叹着。
In the end, Guinea defeated Indonesia 1-0 and successfully qualified for the Paris Olympics, while Indonesia missed out on the round of 16.
Although we lost, our national team still performed very well and hopefully we can perform better in the future.
So said an Indonesian fan.
Guinea was ecstatic at the Olympic Games, as they returned to the Olympic stage for the first time in 56 years.
It was a tough game, but our players gave it their all and we got the win.
A Guinean fan said excitedly.
I don't know if you know about Guinea's Olympic Moriba, a box-to-box midfielder with superb skills and intelligence on the football field, and his performances always make people shine.
Not only did he show great creativity on the offensive end, but he also showed great quality on the defensive end, which made opponents fearful.
On the field, Moriba showed great technical ability.
His passing is precise and powerful, and he always helps the team to organise an effective attack.
Many netizens praised his passing skills: Moriba's passing is so stable, and he can accurately find his teammates' feet every time.
Such technical ability makes Moriba an important engine for the team's attack.
In addition to passing, Moriba is also excellent at dribbling.
He is skilful at his feet and always has the dexterity to control the ball and lead his team through the opposition defence.
One fan exclaimed: Moriba's dribbling skills are truly superb, always able to lead the team forward when it matters most.
This technical advantage has made Moriba an indispensable part of the team's attack.
Defensively, Moriba has also shown amazing quality.
His tackling ability is excellent and he is always able to get the ball back when it matters most.
A netizen commented: Moriba's steals are really accurate, and he can nip the opponent's attack in the bud every time.
This strong tackling ability has made Moriba the backbone of the team's defense.
In addition to tackles, Mauriba is also comfortable in aerial competition.
His headers are excellent and he is always able to compete with his opponents in the air for the high spot.
One fan excitedly said: "Moriba's header is so good that he can threaten the opponent every time.
This excellent aerial ability has made Moriba an important part of the team's corner and free-kick tactics.
In addition, Moriba's air superiority is also a major feature of his.
Especially in corners and free-kicks, he is often able to threaten the team with his excellent aerial ability, and even score crucial goals directly.
One fan excitedly said: Moriba's header is so powerful, every corner kick can create a lot of pressure on the opponent.
Guinea managed to hold on to the lead until the end of the game, a result that disappointed the players and fans of the Indonesian Olympic team.
In the final moments of the match, Indonesia tried to mount a final attack in the hope of an equaliser, but Guinea's sturdy defence held them back and prevented them from achieving the goal.
This scene made many fans sigh: Hey, it's just a little bit, it's a pity.
For the Indonesian Olympic team, the defeat not only meant they could not qualify for the Paris Olympics, but also missed out on their chance to return to the Olympic finals after a 68-year absence.
This made many fans feel sorry, and some said: This opportunity is rare, it's a pity, I hope it will be better next time.
Other fans expressed their support for the team: "Winning and losing is the norm, and the important thing is that we have always supported the national team and expect them to achieve better results in future competitions."
The players of the Guinean Olympic team rejoiced that their efforts were finally paying off.
They celebrated their victory on the pitch, and on social media, many fans praised them for their fighting spirit.
Some fans said excitedly: Great, the strength of our team is obvious to all, and we look forward to their success in the Olympic Games!
