My predictions are

China 0 Korea 0
Iran 4 Malysia 1

 

another Stupid decision by IFF i hope it won't hurt us.

I have just been informed that Iran played and beat Uzbekistan in a friendly last night just hours b4 flying to malysia. My question is why do we play the same team we beat 9-2 when none of the teams in our group play similar to them? If we want to play someone we should play only east asian teams like we did against japan but uzbekistan? Why? and just hours b4 the match now that is just stupid.



Wutang i just wanted to mention that NavidKia is probably more dangerous than both Iman Mobaili and Kaabi.

 

These matches are not that important to us because we've at least already qualified for 2008. We've already waited many years so we can wait another 4.

 

The damn Sina play by play is stuffed. too many surfers must have overloaded the server. Read on the Korean play by play that the posession is like 70-30 Korea's way.

 

is there a website w/ live updates, something like www.livescore,com???

or please keep us up to date!

 

Damn, this Lee Jang Soo is a huge prick. Now i know why he refused to play Qu Bo in the starting 11. He wanted to screw us over.

¡°To regain our confidence and beat them to the punch is the most important thing.¡±

The manager of JeonNam Dragons, Lee Jang-soo (48-years-old) who has taken control of professional teams in China for six years, presented a must-win solution for the Korean Olympic team, lead by Kim Ho-gon against China. Leaving for China after managing Ilhwa team in 1998, Lee has lead Chongqing Lipan and Quingdao Hainiu to become the best teams in the Chinese league. His advice is valuable since Chinese soccer is not well known.


Dominate Opponents--

It is crucial to dominate them completely. Chinese tend to be weak in big matches, especially in road games. A victory will likely happen if Koreans prevail over Chinese in a spirited battle from the beginning since Chinese has suffered from the ¡°fearing Korean disease.¡±(sic) Aware of this, Korean players have to push forward actively. Koreans were down after the defeat to Japan. On the other hand, the Chinese seem confident compared to before. Koreans should keep in mind that Chinese has trained together from the beginning of this year.


Be Cautious of Players from Dalian Shide--

Dalian Shide is a highly reputed team which won seven championships in the Kap group (first league) of the Chinese Professional Soccer. Five players of the Olympic team belong to Dalian, and all of them are starting players so that solid teamwork play is a threat to opponents. A 1m 92cm tall goalie, An Qi, covers a wide range defensively. A right wingback, Wang Sheng, and a defensive midfielder, Hu Zhaojun, are excellent in attacking as well as one-on-one defense. Both of them are capable of controlling a game, including breaking the opponent¡¯s flow. Left wing Yan Song is famous for his accurate cross centering after passing two or three players within a narrow area. Right defender Zhang Yaokun also belongs to Dalian.


Moreover, center defender Du Wei (Shenhua), left midfielder Sherang (Ryao Ning) and right wingforward Gaoming (Qingdao) are noteworthy players. Especially Du Wei, a 1m 87cm tall centerback, sometimes knocks in a high percentage header into the net during set plays.


Prepare for their Irregular Attack--

The Chinese team modifies its system to a three-top formation, namely operating wings of two sides with one-top striker together, once they snatch the ball and attack. To outnumber the Chinese players, the Korean defense should be changed into a four-back formation from the current three-back. Defense lines should be made solid, for example adding a midfielder to the three-back or posting an additional defensive midfielder.

 

Korea vs China

Korea 1:0 China [FT]

2nd half: 36th minute, Cho Jae-Jin scores on a Choi Shung-Kuk assist.


China played quite well in the first half and had thier moments, but wilted in the second. Korea pretty much dominated possesion in the 2nd half with numerous shot attempts but lacked accuracy and sharpness. Although China maybe disappointed with yet another loss after much hype, it's not such a satisfying result for Korea as well as they expect Chinese away match to be much harder.

 

Re: Some thoughts

man... what were u smoking? lol
there were two. one for each team

 

haha, i bet thats what we thought when we got the 88 games

 

Re: Korea vs China

We'll figure out a way to lose.

 

Malaysia are leading Iran by 1-0. Interesting...

 

Read the play-by-play, and seems like general flow of the game was with Korea but Chinese defense stood tall for most of the game until that 30 meter run down the middle by Choi Sung Kook. Korea really lacked creativity in attack at times (relying too much on middle attack/side attacks and crosses being uneffective) and for all the time they've been together now, nothing special was really shown by Chinese in attack either. Defense was solid for both teams, so both teams will have to concentrate on improving their offense. A good win, just the type of win I predicted at home. The away game at China will be MUCH tougher and we'll be pretty lucky to come away with a tie or even a goal.
Oh, and why isn't Qu Bo in the Chinese Olympic squad? I thought he was still within the age limit for the qualifying tournament... is he still struggling (as I have heard for a while now) or is there a specific reason for him being left out? It would have been a good boost for China's confidence since he scored that winning goal in the 2001 WYC qualifying match.

P.S: The new uniforms and o.k.... I'm already used to it. The white panel on the back has to go, though.
