The drums of the Sino-Korean Olympic Qualifying Tournament finally beat in Goyang, South Korea, as the long-delayed event kicked off in the afternoon today. Both sides gave their best in the crucial battle for the Asian zone ticket to the Tokyo Olympics, and China's women's soccer team defeated Korea's women's soccer team 2-1 on the road by virtue of its technical advantage, taking the lead in a favorable position.
What does it mean to lose character? Observe the South Korean women's soccer team in training in a circle, seemingly modest to receive guidance, but I do not know the time on the electronic screen shows the first half 31 minutes 05 seconds, the scoreboard is clearly written on the South Korea 3 to 1 China. If the men's soccer team is still understandable, but our women's soccer team has always been dominant in the encounter, the past five four wins and a draw, more four times shutout opponents, this campaign is naturally full of confidence.
Both sides sent their strongest lineups to the game, with Wang Frost, who used to play for Paris Saint-Germain, and Ji Xiaoran of the South Korean women's soccer team competing against each other. At the beginning of the match, China's women's soccer team took the initiative on the field, and in the 32nd minute, Ma Jun's precise pass and Zhang Xin's pad shot broke through the goal, giving China's women's soccer team a 1-0 lead. However, it didn't last long, Korea Ji Xiaoran tore through our defense with a direct kick, and Kang Chi-Lin shot inside the penalty area to equalize the game, making the score 1-1 by the end of the first half.
In the second half, our women's soccer team continued the offensive, if not for the heroic play of the Korean goalkeeper Kim Jung-mi, the Korean women's soccer team would have surrendered. The most threatening attack in the second half was Shen Xuyan's pass, and Jiang Qianlin's shot from the outside of her foot nearly broke the goal. China's women's soccer penalty kick opportunity is entirely by virtue of the girls' struggle, Korea Sun Huayan kicked down Tang Jiali in the penalty area, the referee penalty kick, Wang Frost hit the penalty, China's women's soccer team 2 to 1 lead again.
