Looking at the lineups of the two armies, it can be described as a gathering of talents.
The Chinese Olympic team's starting lineup and substitutes are as follows: goalkeeper No. 1 Chen Dong; defenders No. 5 Zheng Zhi, No. 2 Sun Jihai, No. 3 Li Weifeng, No. 12 Tao Wei; midfielders No. 8 Sui Dongliang, No. 6 Li Tie, No. 11 Huang Yong (73 minutes, replacing No. 9 Zhang Xiurui), No. 7 Zhao Junzhe; striker No. 15 Li Jinyu (79 minutes, replacing No. 10 Zhang Yuning).
Korea's Olympic team starting lineup: goalkeeper Kim Yong Dae; defenders Nam Ki Sung, Park Dong Hyuk, Park Jae; midfielders Lee Young Soo, Kim Do Kyun, Lee Gwan Woo, Jung Dae Hoon; forwards Ahn Hyo Lian, Lee Dong Guk (now known as Lee Tong Guk), Shin Byung Ho.
Throughout the game, the two sides engaged in an intense confrontation. China dominated in the number of shots, corner kicks and free kicks, but failed to score against Korea's stubborn resistance. In the 64th minute, a controversial moment occurred on the field. Shin Byung-ho jumped for a header from a teammate's cross from the right and the ball hit the crossbar and bounced to the goal line before bouncing out. Unfortunately, the referee ruled the goal offside, making it the only goal the crowd was watching. In the end, the Chinese Olympic team lost 0-1 on the road.
The slow-motion camera showed that the ball did not cross the goal line, and the Chinese Olympic team became the victim of this goal line dangling case. After the match, Dalian Wanda player Sun Jihai was agitated and questioned the referee, and the scene was chaotic.
After the tournament, Sun Jihai was banned for a year. He was already at a disadvantage in the race to get out of the tournament, and now that the star of the show was banned, the Olympic team was unable to revitalize for the rest of the tournament and ended up missing the Sydney Olympics.
Twenty-four years of spring and fall have passed, those 13 players who represented the Chinese National Olympic Games are now where? Most of them have entered the coaching ranks.
