We lost 0-1 to the North Korean team, although this defeat is regrettable, but it also allows us to see the fighting spirit and indomitable fighting spirit of the Chinese women's football players. Next, they will face South Korea in a third-place match, which is not just a win in one game, but also a ticket to the Under-17 Women's World Cup. Let's take a look back at the game and find out what it took to find out.
1. Review of the game: The fierce battle is in full swing, and it is a pity to lose
In the semi-finals of the U17 Women's Asian Cup, the matchup between the Chinese team and the North Korean team can be described as a close match. After the start of the game, the players of both sides quickly entered the state and launched a fierce scramble. In the 7th minute, Zhang Quan of the North Korean team broke through to the penalty area with a ball, but the shot was wide and allowed the Chinese team to escape.
Just four minutes later, North Korea's Choi Yeon-a scored from near the penalty line, and although the Chinese goalkeeper touched the ball, the ball went into the net through the cracks of his hands. This goal became the turning point of the game, and the Chinese team fell into passivity in the following games.
Second, the offense is weak, and the defense is exhausted
In the face of the ferocious attack of the North Korean team, the Chinese team seemed powerless on the offensive end. Although the players worked hard, they lacked effective offensive means and scoring ability at critical moments.
At the same time, the defensive end was also under tremendous pressure, and the North Korean team's offense was wave after wave, leaving the Chinese team's defenders exhausted. In this case, the error rate of the Chinese team gradually increased, and the North Korean team seized the opportunity to launch continuous onslaught.
3. Player performance: Although there are bright spots, they still need to be improved
In this game, although the players of the Chinese team showed a certain fighting spirit, they still need to improve at the technical and tactical levels.
Hou Shulin, Wang Dantong, Chen Rui and other players all performed well in the game, but the mistakes and lack of experience at key moments made them pay a heavy price. In contrast, North Korea's players are more mature and experienced in terms of technique and tactical execution, which is one of the big reasons why they were able to win the game.
Fourth, the future outlook: the decisive battle against South Korea, and strive for the third place
Although the Chinese team lost in the semi-finals, they still have a chance to prove their quality in the third-place match. Facing the South Korean team, the Chinese team needs to sum up the lessons learned, adjust the tactical play, and give full play to their own characteristics.
Only in this way can we achieve good results in the next games and win glory for the Chinese women's football team. At the same time, this third-place battle will also determine who of the two teams will qualify for the U17 Women's World Cup, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Chinese women's football team.
