On November 28, Beijing time, the second round of the Qatar World Cup group stage continued. The first game of Group H was played between the South Korean team and Ghana. After 90 minutes of competition, the two teams finally scored the third goal of the killing game after being chased to 2-2. After losing 2-3, the South Korean team only scored 1 point in the two games and wanted to qualify, they would fight Portugal in the last round.
In the previous round of the game, Ghana lost to Portugal and became the only team in Group H that failed to score points. South Korea tied the strong Uruguay team in the first round. From the analysis of the schedule and points, the South Korean team hopes to get 4 points before the final round of the game against Portugal. Playing Ghana to get 3 points is the South Korean team's established plan.
Ghana team currently ranks 61st in the world, and is the last one in the top 32 in Qatar World Cup, while South Korea ranks 28th. There are 33 ranking gaps between the two teams. In theory, this is a game with clear strength and weakness. After all, Ghana is only 18 rankings higher than the Chinese men's football team.
One previous match day Japanese team faces , which is weaker than itself , Costa Rica , played like a warm water in the first half. In the second half, he was eager to exert force but was killed by his opponent's counterattack. The Japanese team paid the price for its conservative tactics.
The Korean team seems to be interested in summing up the lessons from the Japanese team. In the game against Ghana, the South Korean team launched a fierce attack from the beginning. The first 20 minutes were shot 5-0, the corner kick was 7-0, and the ball possession rate was 67%-33%. Just looking at these 20 minutes, it seems that the South Korean team won a few goals.
However, after one go, it declined again and went to an end. After 20 minutes, Ghana gradually stabilized the situation and smelled some opportunities to counterattack. In the 24th minute, Ghana seized the free kick opportunity to score in random battles. The team scored the first shot of the team. The Korean players lost the ball in a good situation and the players on the court were wailed.
However, this is just the beginning. After conceding the ball, the South Korean team could only grit their teeth and continue to attack. This happened to hit the idea of the fast and black Ghana team. Ten minutes later, Ghana scored another goal to lead 2-0. The South Korean team was as fierce as a tiger and saw the score 0-2.
Entering the second half Paul Bento immediately achieved results after replacing Li Gangren . Cao Guicheng scored twice in 43 minutes and rewritten the score to 2-2. It seemed that the situation had returned to the balance.
However, the Ghanaian players seized the stage where the mentality of the Korean players was somewhat unstable. They scored again after just being tied for 7 minutes. The goal was still the second goal. The 22-year-old young player scored twice and was very shining.
Perhaps if the Korean team does not take the opening rush and hit hard, they will not fall behind 0-2 early. From the result deduction, it seems that the Korean team's tactical choice of the opening tactics is problematic, but unfortunately no one can truly foresee the future.
After losing this game, the South Korean team will face Portugal in the last round. The South Korean team wants to score points on Portugal and want 3 points. Is this realistic?
