There was also De Gea.

In the Premier League, even he, a goalkeeper, had his groin ambushed several times by Diego Costa's elbow.

The key was that the Chelsea striker was very good at avoiding the referee's line of sight and controlling his strength.

Otherwise, De Gea might really lose his ability to reproduce.

Diego Costa saw through the youngsters' thoughts and laughed, "We're teammates on the same side now! Aren't we? Let's show these Koreans what we're made of!"

The youngsters scattered.

Morata couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "You said everything you shouldn't have."

....

Lee Kang raised the number 8 jersey in his hand.

Miniano explained: "This is the number Xavi wore for the national team! Last September, he handed it over to Koke, and Koke now thinks you're more suitable!"

Bosque nodded: "This number will be with you for a long time."

Although there are no restrictions on jersey numbers in international A-level friendlies.

Morata and Diego Costa still chose their cup numbers.

7 and 19.

The team changed into their national team tracksuits, dragged their luggage, and boarded the plane to Asia.

"The Korean team is very savage, you need to protect yourselves! Especially little Dennis and Lee!"

"Don't worry about the referee, we've hired a famous Italian referee for this game."

Morata loudly encouraged the youngsters.

Unfortunately, his crazy misses in the match against Japan cost him the youngsters' admiration.

Little Dennis raised his tablet and said seriously, "The Korean team's tactics are very simple. They have always insisted on a three-defender tactical system. It's not Conte and Tuchel's new tactics!"

"They like to go down the flanks at high speed, form multiple points of attack in the middle, and finally complete the shot with a cutback!"

"Even the Dragon Country team's tactics are more complicated than theirs!"

"Too simple!"

As the midfield brain of Spain's second team, little Dennis took on the task of tactical analysis.

Bosque was drowsy, seemingly unconcerned about the outcome of the match.

Miniano was scribbling on a piece of paper, muttering to himself.

"When we lose possession, we have to move Lee Kang and Thiago a little further back."

"Is it to strengthen the thickness of the midfield interception? Or to widen the width and cut off the opponent's flank connection? This is a choice they need to respond to randomly!"

"Forget it, they might not even touch the ball."

........

Thirteen hours later.

The plane passed through thick clouds.

Landing at Incheon International Airport in Seoul, South Korea.

The Spanish players walked out of the arrival gate.

The Korean fans who had been waiting for a long time enthusiastically pressed against the cordon.

Miniano said, "Barca's popularity in Korea is ranked second! Because they have three talented youngsters playing for Barca's youth team, so you..."

The La Masia youngsters left quickly with dark faces.

"Lee Kang!!!"

Lee Kang turned his head and saw a sweet-looking girl waving at him.

He thought she was a Dragon Country student, so he walked over.

Who knew.

The girl blurted out, "사인좀해주세요!"

Lee Kang shook his head and walked towards the national team bus.

The Korean girl's smile froze.

Son Heung-min is a red-hot superstar in Korea, and every Leverkusen match is watched by Korean fans.

Indirectly.

Lee Kang also gained some Korean fans.

Especially the crushing massacre against Mainz.

......

The red bus drove down the road.

Little Dennis asked curiously, "The term 'little devils' is a name for the Japanese, so what's the name for Koreans?"

De Gea stroked his chin, thought for a moment, "During last year's Asian tour, the Dragon Country guide didn't have time to teach us!"

Diego Costa said solemnly, "Azpilicueta taught me that the name for Koreans is... bangzi!"

"Bangzi?"

"Bangzi!"

The youngsters followed suit.

Lee Kang couldn't help but sigh: Diego Costa's Chinese pronunciation... is very standard!

He vaguely recalled that there were several Dragon Country experts in the Chelsea club.

.....

That night.

Incheon Stadium.

More than 20,000 Korean fans were packed in.

They wore purple jerseys and waved flags printed with the Taegeuk tiger!

Korean football was only third-rate in Asia before the 1980s.

The turning point occurred in the 1983 World Youth Championship, when that group of young players broke into the top four.

In the same year, South Korea began to pay attention to the development of football, founded the K League, and started youth training.

Generations of youth training players have only practiced two sets of tactics since childhood! Cutbacks and crosses!

During the same period, Japanese youth training began top-down control and passing, while Dragon Country youth training was studying more complex and profound tactical systems!

.......

"espn! espn! Good evening, viewers!"

"Welcome to this week's international match day grudge match!"

"The Korean team hosts the Spanish team."

"I'm Zhan Jun!"

"The starting lineups of both teams have been released!"

"The Korean team has a full lineup!"

"Spain is led by Morata and Diego Costa with a group of young players... Oh! And Thiago from Bayern Munich!"

.....

Inside the player tunnel.

Son Heung-min and Lee Kang exchanged simple greetings.

Although he is a Korean superstar, he is not yet the big brother in the national team at this time. Restricted by the national team's position, he dared not be too enthusiastic.

In the Spanish ranks.

Only Diego Costa was chatting happily with the Korean players.

He is Brazilian. Because he could not get the call-up from the national echelon since he was a child, he naturalized in Spain.

This behavior did not attract the attention of the Samba Football Association at first.

Until he was unstoppable in Atletico Madrid, competing with the absolute double pride for the La Liga Golden Boot.

Brazil was in national outrage.

......

The referee team led the players from both sides out of the tunnel.

Incheon Stadium instantly erupted in chattering shouts!

The sound of drums vibrated.

Morata turned to look at Lee Kang and said confidently, "Just pass the ball to me!"

Lee Kang smiled.

The system prompt sounded quietly.

[Ding! National team mission triggered: Massacre!]

[Mission introduction: Is there still suspense in the game? A narrow victory? Don't be kidding! Crush them!]

[Mission reward: Module Furnace!]

It seems that every time there is a national team match.

The mission rewards are always some strange things.

....

The broadcast in the stadium played the Korean national anthem "Aegukga."

The 20,000 Korean fans on the scene sang in unison.

In their eyes, the Spanish second team, led by only three top players, will not be an opponent of the Korean team at all.

Lee Kang and little Dennis?

Just two system players!

The pride and confidence engraved in the bones of Korean fans make them believe that their team can return to the top four every World Cup!

......

espn live broadcast room.

Chinese barrage dominates the screen.

-[Good fellow, this international friendly match can be watched without paying!]

-[Lee Ming Deng is here to crush rookies again!]

-[Can't crush it! Last time the Japanese team had a semi-main lineup, but this time the Koreans have a full lineup! The 2014 World Cup roster! I don't know if the young Spanish midfield combination can withstand the Korean team's high-pressure pressing. If Morata misses wildly, this game is hard to say!]

-[Think too much? Tactical master! Lee Ming Deng can conquer the Nou Camp, can't he conquer Incheon Stadium?]
