Chapter 1750: Chapter 918: The Heaven-defying Goalkeeper Who Crushes Opponents_2

"Shot on goal!"

As the commentator’s voice fades out.

The Korean Team’s number 6 main attacker, Park Munji, has broken through the penalty area, reaching just a few meters from the national team’s goal, and then takes a shot from close range.

At this moment, the national team’s goalkeeper Zhu Cheng precisely deflects the shot, the soccer ball brushes off his fingertips and bounces away, and Park Munji regains possession.

Indeed, the ball deflected by Zhu Cheng lands back at Park Munji’s feet, and seeing this, Park Munji quickly lifts his foot for another shot.

The crisis is here!

At this critical moment, the national team’s defenders frantically run towards the goal area, trying to block the ball.

At this key moment, with the goalkeeper Zhu Cheng still on the ground, he suddenly leaps up like a carp and moves his body to block the ball again. The soccer ball hits Zhu Cheng’s body and bounces away a certain distance.

Seeing this, Park Munji feels uncomfortable and prepares to charge in for a third shot.

But Zhu Cheng doesn’t give him the chance, as Zhu Cheng stretches his foot and kicks the soccer ball out of the field.

This series of shots were brilliantly saved by Zhu Cheng, successfully defusing the crisis.

The crowd bursts into cheers, these are the cheers from the national team’s fans, cheering for goalkeeper Zhu Cheng.

Meanwhile, the Korean Team’s number 6 main attacker, Park Munji, is deeply frustrated. He had a great opportunity, the timing was perfect, arguably a flawless shot, yet it was blocked by this goalkeeper Zhu Cheng.

But this was even the second chance to shoot, which was still saved by goalkeeper Zhu Cheng, leaving Park Munji’s face full of pain, like a mask of suffering.

It was finally a hard-earned chance to score and turn the game around, and just like that, it was gone, the score still remained one to zero.

Park Munji directly falls to the ground, holding his face with his hands, deeply regretting that he didn’t make that shot.

"Hahaha, this goalkeeper is amazing!"

"Park Munji is about to collapse."

"I’m dying of laughter, how big is Park Munji’s psychological shadow now?"

"This Zhu Cheng is really amazing, a god-level goalkeeper!"

"That’s right, with this series of saves, he’s solidified his legend."

"This goalkeeper is truly top-notch!"

"How big is the psychological shadow for the Korean Team now?"

"Look at the previous national team goalkeepers, and then look at the current one, with this goalkeeper, how can we worry about not winning the game?"

The fans watching the game live on the Feiyue Home Streaming Media are all cheering and liking this goalkeeper Zhu Cheng because his double save was truly excellent.

The first half ended with the brilliance of this goalkeeper’s consecutive saves, completely extinguishing the Korean Team’s hopes of tying the score in the first half.

Finally, with the referee’s whistle, the first-half match ended.

Then, during the halftime break, the Koreans had arranged for a "girl group" cheerleading team to dance on the green soccer field.

"Wow, the cheerleaders have killer figures."

Huang Youjie looked at the Korean cheerleaders on the green field and couldn’t help but marvel.

For the Koreans, the only eye-catching thing might be the girl group with decent figures. As the saying goes - don’t envy the mandarin ducks nor the fairies, envy the Koreans’ chaebol every day!

"My review, just average."

Ding Yue calmly said.

The members of these girl groups do have nice figures, but back at Mist City Arts and Science University, there are quite a few more beautiful girls with better figures and higher appearances.

For instance, the campus belles chosen annually at Mist City Arts and Science University, aren’t they all far superior to these Korean girl groups?

In the team’s locker room on the field.

The Korean Team’s head coach is a bit angry, very dissatisfied with the first half. He stated that in the second half they will launch a more aggressive attack, determined to disrupt the national team’s defensive lineup to create scoring opportunities.

To be fair, this Korean Team’s head coach does have some skills.

Because he noticed that the national team’s defensive line is very solid, almost like a wall of copper, but in facing such a defense, to win, they need to break this defensive line; otherwise, they will fall into a passive state.

Clearly, the Korean Team’s head coach saw from the last match where Li Shuangying, Liu Zhan, and Zhao Xuanming led the main attack, and compared to this time, the national team’s main attack has softened.

Why reduce the intensity?

It’s because the national team chose to focus its priority on the defensive line; this is why in the first half, although the Korean Team launched numerous strong attacks, only twice did they threaten the national team’s goal, and both were defended by the national team’s goalkeeper Zhu Cheng.

Confronted with this strategy of the national team, the Korean Team’s head coach concluded that the solution is to thoroughly disrupt the national team’s defense, allowing the Korean Team to create more scoring opportunities, and only then can they equalize the score or even take the lead and ultimately win the match.

After all, they are already one point behind in the first half. If they don’t attack actively in the second half and instead play a passive defense, they might just lose the entire match.

"Do you understand!"

The head coach sternly asked.

"Understood!"

The Korean Team players answered in unison.

Having already launched sustained aggressive attacks in the first half, the second half must continue with this aggression. This puts significant pressure on the Korean Team players, as even top physical players cannot maintain high-pressure attacks continuously for just over ten minutes; a person’s stamina is limited.

Faced with this situation, the Korean Team’s head coach made arrangements.

The main attack in the second half continues aggressively, but considering stamina reasons, the Korean Team has arranged three main substitutes, essentially throwing all they have into the match.

This time, the Korean Team swears to win, especially having lost to the Thai Team’s national team; if they can’t even take this match, the Korean Team fans would not let them off, and this would be a major blow to their honor!

Meanwhile, in the national team locker room.

The national team’s head coach, Hou Xiangming, is arranging the tactical changes for the second half with the players.

"Zhu Cheng, you did well in the first half!"

Hou Xiangming first praised the goalkeeper Zhu Cheng for his performance in the first half, especially his critical double save, which indeed surprised Hou Xiangming.

Had it not been for Zhu Cheng’s double save, the Korean Team would have scored, which would have reset the game from the second half’s start, and leading by one point offers a certain advantage in the second half.

"Just doing my job."

Zhu Cheng nodded, modestly said.

"Moreover, I want to say, don’t just see Zhu Cheng’s multiple life-saving saves, but actually, our defensive backline is doing great. Everyone maintains a high standard defensive line, but in those last few minutes, the Korean Team’s chaotic attacks disrupted our defensive pace. I don’t blame you for this."

Hou Xiangming calmly stated.

In the last few minutes of the first half, the national team’s defense indeed seemed somewhat shaky, but this was caused by the Korean Team’s chaotic attacks and is understandable.

After all, even the strongest defense in front of a strong team can’t be impenetrable, and opponents will find their ways to disrupt the defense to create shot opportunities, even in normal defensive conditions.

The Korean Team succeeded in this; given the ever-changing nature of the field, once the national team’s defense was disrupted, the Korean Team seized that opportunity.

"In the second half, our defensive backs need to maintain high standards. We need to remember this; our national team’s defense was terrible in the past, but now that it’s us, we need to maintain high standards, understand?"

Hou Xiangming sternly instructed the players.

"Understood!"

All the players answered in unison.
