August 16 18:00.

Beijing Workers Stadium.

From the day before the start, all 60,000 spectators were sold out.

As a city with many Koreans, about 10,000 Koreans visited it, another 40,000 seats were scheduled for China, and the remaining 10,000 seats were scheduled for Chinese public security.

It was for security reasons.

Nevertheless, before the start of the game, there was a slight nerve war between Korea and China outside the stadium, which was immediately blocked by public security.

100 years of dreams.

The Chinese side, which has been preparing for the Beijing Olympics for the past year, has been trying to maintain security by putting public police throughout the city.

The intense Chinese crowd couldn't speak in front of them and just quietly entered the stadium.

The reason they came to the stadium with expensive ticket prices was purely for the game, but for a real reason.

"Today, I see Korea losing. It's already fourth today. No money should be paid! "

Some Chinese eagerly wanted to capture the moment of Korea's defeat.

However, Cameroon was defeated in the first leg and a draw was drawn to Italy, which they believed, and in the end they could not see what they wanted.

Moreover, as China were eliminated from the group stage with 2 draws and 1 loss, they were just thinking about releasing stress through today's game.

Beep!

The game began with a shout of 50,000 spectators.

It was a team that was considered to have both a sharp attack and solid defense.

In the attack, Moussa Dembele, who was noted in the Dutch league, and Vincent Kompany in the defense, managed to have a good defensive power.

Both were great timber players in the future, but their potential had not yet opened, so they had the skills to be in their early twenties.

Ten years later, Belgium could hardly win, but now it was enough.

In fact, the dividend paid to Korea in this game was not higher than expected.

No matter who wins, it was nothing unusual.

Because central midfielder Marouane Fellaini, 194 centimeters, was injured in a match against China and was unable to play today.

It's a good thing in Korea.

Today was the best time to win.

[17 minutes in the first half, Belgium with a 4-2-3-1 formation tries to make a change.]

[The game hasn't been very good since the start of the first half. The fight for the right to be held tightly is about 6 to 4, which is not overwhelming. The Belgian forward pass is not getting properly delivered to Musa Dembele. So now, I'm trying to change to something different.]

Belgium.

The midfielders had a good midfielder, and they had a strategy to pour out a lot of fire, but it didn't work very well.

That's why the 4-2-4 formation was changed.

But the problem was not solved at once.

Jan Vertonghen, who took the midfield instead of Fellaini, was confused throughout the game, unable to play his part.

After all, Anthony Vanden Borre, who needs to protect the fabric, was swayed by a Korean player.

Woo Young was.

As a result, cracks formed in the double borange resulted in a collapse in the balance between the airbornes.

It even affected the attackers, and Dembele wandered back and forth like a runaway youth and showed no threatening moves.

There are many possible reasons for this, but the biggest problems have been the failure of unfamiliar tactics and unusual teamwork.

dissonance.

It was bothering Belgium.

And Korea.

[Movement seems to have slowed a lot since Italy. Many experts pointed out in the game against Honduras. I need to focus on each pass with more concentration.]

[That's right. Our players! I want you to give me a little more power!]

Korea's performance was not good either.

It was because of too much power, especially in the Italian war.

If you poured 130% of energy at that time, you can only use 70% of the game today.

The defensive pass made no sense, and the midfield continued a lazy move.

Woo Ho-young, who was used as the front striker to control his stamina, went down slightly and tried to distribute the ball, but the other players couldn't follow him.

Even if you play alone with the ball and make a decisive chance, it doesn't lead to scoring on the ballistic defenses of Belgian players who catch the ball.

'I am heavy.'

Ho Young was fully aware of his problems.

"after."

But I had to do my best until the end.

Beep-

[1st half ends. The Republic of Korea has a 0-0 draw against Belgium.]

[Yeah. I fought well. The market share was similar, and the number of shots is slightly behind, but that's fine. Unfortunately, the players' determination was not visible. You have to be prepared to die in today's game, but you can use your full skills.]

And that's the locker room of the Korean team.

The players were tired.

The atmosphere was fine though.

The game wasn't inclined yet, so with a little bit more effort you could go forward one step ahead.

Meanwhile, Ki Sung-ryong approached Ho Young and said.

"Relax."

"Ah yes."

"If they were like me last time, I'd be quiet."

cowardice.

Ki Sung-ryong had assumed that it was Woo Woo-young's distress.

Half was right and half wrong.

It wasn't enough to play because of the aftermath, but it wasn't enough to play.

It was due to the propensity of Hoyoung.

When faced with an emergency, do not panic, but cope well, but after passing my heart flutters.

And keep it in mind.

'Let's wake up.'

Iii.

Hoyoung shook her head.

Too many things in my head.

I took it all away and filled it up with the thought that I could win.

'Slowly, let's start again.'

At the same time, the burden of the quarterfinals had to go away.

Beep-

The second half began after the 15-minute half time.

There was no big change in Korea, but Belgium made a lot of changes in line and detailed tactics.

First, he defended the midfield by attracting defenders, and by establishing detailed attack developments, deceived Korean defenders.

The tactics ordered by Belgian coach Jean-Francois were working.

I didn't rush to give the movement a point, creating a decisive opportunity.

Compared to the first half was a lot different.

Spectators who criticized the waste of money for sub-standard performances also cheered whether the game was worth seeing.

The game quickly became elastic and the speedy game began to unfold.

Winning mentality.

It was a glimpse of the Belgian players.

Korea was not easy.

"Dae ~ HanMinkook!"

Red Devils.

They sent the same kind of deterioration and heated up the stadium.

So, the fight was going on, and the hands eventually stopped at 90 minutes.

[2nd half, scoreless ends and start overtime.]

[Our players are here. You just need a little bit more strength.]

30 minutes.

Hell time unfolded.

Belgium has already used up all the replacement cards, while Park Sung-ho, who had spared until the end, still had one replacement card.

He chose Woo Ho-young as the one top, putting Kim Jung-hoo instead of Park Joo-hyung.

A counter-attack tactic that aims for only one chance for the back space.

Since arriving in China, the tactics have been summed up several times.

The opportunity might not come once, no, never.

But the opportunity came.

12 minutes in total.

Percussion!

[Pass to the samurai dembele! Dembele, confront the mobile players! Dembele! Dembele's judgment is indeed.

[Ah! It's pierced! Mobile Operator, allow Dembele to penetrate the side! Cross to the center!]

widely.

Offensive midfielder Martins scored a header that went straight to the goalkeeper.

[Sung-yong's whereabouts!]

AA AA AA!

The crowd of 40,000 spectators followed, but that was not the end.

Seong Yong's body shrugged off the ball.

The ball flew into the third line dropped to the feet of Ki Sung-ryong.

"run!"

Cuckoo!

Ki Sung-ryong's long pass flew deep.

It was a counterattack.

Belgium's back space is truly empty.

Defenders came back, but perfect defense was virtually impossible.

It was a perfect counterattack opportunity in Korea.

"female!"

Percussion!

Lee Geun-oh, on the left side, received the ball and looked at Kim Jung-hoo.

Kim Jong-hu saw Woo-young again.

It was then.

Near penalty area.

The ground ball pass was delivered under the foot of Hoyoung.

Iii.

Ho-young caught the ball, and in front of him came the Vinh-Company.

The eyes of two people met.

Anxiety.

It flowed out of their eyes all at once.

But first, I woke up.

At this moment, I dealt with the company only with the intention of winning.

All other worries were shaken off.

The company, which is still a prospect, is not his opponent.

One to one can pierce enough.

So armed.

But then.

'right.'

As Ho-yeong's field of view widened, the pupil turned to the right.

A clearer route was noticed than breakthrough.

In a surprise

fault.

[Woo Young's forward pass falls to the right! It is delivered to Lee Blue Dragon by the occasional car! Lee Chung-ryong sees Woo-young again! Yi's return pass continues!]

Percussion.

Breakthrough success.

Ho Young, who escaped the company's shadow through a two-to-one pass with Lee Chung-ryong, immediately took a shooting position.

Goalkeeper Logan Bailly ran out.

It wasn't funny to see.

He did not concentrate until the end, and he was doing predictions.

But predictive power is the best.

Looking forward, Ho Young aimed at the right post and took a slight shot.

Without missing that moment, Logan Byley leaned to the left with an animal sense.

But then it was.

Woo Woo-young's shot painting! Flick once to the left while pretending to shoot! Wide open space! Shot, shot, shoutout!]

It wasn't until the goalkeeper was tricked out.

It was shot like a bullet to split the net.

It was Korea's first goal that popped up at the tip of Woo Ho Young.

[Go oh oh oh! It is the goal to reduce drought in drought! Woo Young!]

[Olympic No. 3 Goal! The goal is to score a goal! I knew how to do it!]

The stadium was filled with shouts of red devils who admire Korea.

And after the first half of the extension, all through the last 15 minutes, the majority of the crowd spit out of the stadium.

Beep-

[Korea National Team, Round of 4! Dream of the Olympic soccer semifinals!

[I'm proud. Our players!]

It was Korea's first Olympic semifinal advance.

And that time.

In another quarter-final match in Shenyang, Brazil finished the semi-finals by winning 4-0 against Italy.

Today's game was not over there.

An hour later, Qinhuangdao played the third and fourth quarterfinals at the same time, which was also a big match.

First Ivory Coast meets the Netherlands.

The Netherlands advanced to the quarterfinals with a 3-2 victory.

And last.

A bout between Argentina, who finished second in Group A, and Nigeria, who came in first in Group A.

The match also went into extra time, with Lionel Messi smashing the back goal just before the end of the extra time, leading Argentina to a dramatic victory.

This made Argentina the last team to reach the semifinals.

They were Korea's semifinal opponents.
