First interview with director Casiragi.

A reporter questioned a press conference at an underground press conference room.

"In today's game, I overturned everyone's expectations and started Montolivo. As a result, the choice proved wrong. Do you think that the main cause of defeat is Montolivo? "

Casiragi was like a heart and wanted to nod his head.

But the competition was not over yet, so it could not cause any disagreements.

However, he had to prepare a hole for his escape.

"no. Everything was a tactical mistake. It's the manager's fault not to know the player's skills. "

"It sounds like Montolivo was unable to fulfill your bishop's orders properly."

"Whether the players didn't meet their expectations or not, everything is in the end.

Nevertheless, the criticism of Italian football fans can never be avoided.

So Casiraghi chose this interview.

Interviewed to lead the arrow to Montolivo while secretly taking responsibility.

Montolivo was set up as a shield for the public opinion.

But the eyes of journalists are enthralled.

They weren't the writers who would take Casiragi's words as they were.

"Why did you order Montolivo for a tough fight? The player couldn't have done so. It was very different from now. "

"reciprocal. Montolivo is not a player specializing in struggles, but he uses the stereotype that he will play intelligently. "

"One question remains, though. When Montolivo wasn't a good player for the ball, why did he get Woo Young's exclusive mark? I could use players like Criscito and Silvestri. "

I doubt that he deliberately tried to soak Woo Young.

Any imaginative journalist was a reasonable doubt to think about.

But Casiraghi did not answer the question.

Instead, a sharp voice covered the interview room.

"Do you know football better than me?"

Chollalarak

Casiragi exited the press conference, showing that he lost his reason.

It's visual upstairs.

A reporter hurriedly caught up to Montolivo, who passed through the passage and returned to the locker room.

"Can Montolivo, one minute interview?"

"Please. There is no press that has a separate contract. "

"Hmm. Thank you. Just before, Mr. Casiragi told a press conference that 'Today's game is my fault.'

"Yeah. Yes. It is his fault. "

"··· ?!"

As Montolivo said with a keen eye, the reporter bited deeply because it was a rice cake.

"Are you admitting Mr. Casiragi's mistake?"

"It wasn't a mistake, it was the worst choice. I gave a nonsense order to split Woo's legs.

Montolivo was rough.

Beginning of the war.

It was inner red.

A player does not have to obey the manager's words unconditionally like an elementary school student.

In particular, high-authority competitions are more frequent. There are absurd cases of criticizing the bishop and declaring boycotts during competitions.

In the case of the director, he often made a mistake in the interview and resigned after receiving the public opinion.

Hiddink asks for a ban on writing columns in the media during the competition.

This is due to the fact that international media attacks on the team's atmosphere are on the way.

In the meantime, Montolivo threw the sauce.

It wasn't the end there.

"Oh, and. I would like to rent this seat and say a word to Woo Ho Young. Thank you again. It made me realize fair play. "

Up to this point, no one knew who was right.

However, subsequent short interviews with Ho Young added credibility to Montolivo's words.

Hallway outside Korean locker room.

A reporter from the Marca press who was granted access came and asked.

"Mr. Casiragi said, 'I only told you to fight your body. I never asked you to injure Woo.' What do you think about this? "

"How do I know the heart of Casiraghi? However, Montolivo was nervous in the first half, and Casiragi gave him an intermittent hand signal. But Montolivo kept him away. It can be found by looking back at the game. "

"Then did you notice then? Montolivo is trying to injure Woo-young. "

"There was suspicion. It's a common thing. So I responded accordingly. But decisively, when Montolivo came to me and said, I'm sorry. Oh, this guy intended to injure me, "he said.

"I apologize for the fact that Montolivo was sorry? During the game? "

"Yeah."

"Five···."

Excited by the new facts, the reporter asked again, close to Ho-young's face.

"What do you think about Bishop Casiragi?"

"I do not know. That's what you know. but."

Ho-young said in a bit after taking a beat.

"If that's true, isn't it rubbish? Trash should not be on the ground. "

"Oh, that's right?"

"Let me be honest. In the name of professional world without concessions, how many players lost hope because of their injuries. They were also somebody's hero. Modern football is intentional against sportsmanship. "

"What do you think?"

"What matters more is the punishment. The player is in danger of having to cut his leg, and he has seen a story where he has just been scheduled to play six games. Does this make sense? I think we should take appropriate action at the association level. "

In the words of Ho Young, an example, the reporter expressed unexpectedly.

Then he asked an improvised question.

You're totally opposed to saying, "Intentional injury is part of the game."

"Planned injuries are also part of the game.

The reporter lost words to say without hesitation.

Yet nodded to see if the empathy.

"······· You're not angry?"

"Do you look angry? Imagine someone instructed you to smash your camera. A camera that you can't get with money. "

"Ah···."

Hoyoung added one more word there.

"If there's anyone who sees this, raise your hand and reflect. If you want to be respected, shouldn't you respect the player first? "

And that night.

띡-

Pak!

While watching TV in the hotel room, director Casiragi threw the remote control.

Woo-young's interviews came from the Spanish broadcasting station.

"That's a little brawny!"

Even if I swear at the rage, I was not cool.

But it wasn't what you could do here.

The media wasn't on their side already.

Moreover, it did not end there.

As a decisive blow, Montolivo's "Sorry." In the game was captured by some fans and spread online.

It was evidence that added credibility to Ho Young's words.

[This is real]

[Where are you going once or twice? If you look at the tackle in the Italian Serie League, the answer comes up. They buy the umpires and even play the game.

[But Woo Young Interview is full of power. Look at the face.

Overseas soccer fans, including Korea, also leaned to trust Montolivo and Woo Ho Young.

Nevertheless, Casiragi reached out to the end.

In addition, he repeatedly denied the dispute with Montolivo and gave the nuance that he would use him in Game III.

In Italy, it was already hard, but the case was once there.

It wasn't the case that the impact was strong enough to shake the football world.

Anti-sports behaviors, such as the "intentional murder tackle order" in football and the "ballball order" in baseball, are frequent customers who frequently appear in sports scandals.

If the Republic of Korea complains of injustice, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) must determine whether to punish Kasiragi, but it was not easy because there is no real evidence.

Thus, the decision against Casiragi will finally be made by the Italian Football Association and its people.

Holding the championship cup of gold.

Or infamously hardened.

after that.

As several Olympic issues arose, the incident became more and more forgotten.

Only a few countries did not know how to cool.

Some Chinese and Japanese responded by saying, "I had to send Woo Young to this opportunity, but it was a pity." Fans of Spain Castilla responded differently, saying, "I will kill both Montolivos and Casillas."

Of course Korea was closer to the latter.

Especially after the game, manager Park Sung-ho burst into anger, saying, "If such a manager exists, he should not be allowed to get on the field again!"

But the most surprised was the party, Ho Young.

On August 12, the day before the third round of the group stage with Honduras.

Ho Young was unable to concentrate throughout the training.

The physical condition was worse than it was, it was a hard time mentally.

On the day of the match, it was roughly over, but over time it came to fear.

aftereffect.

Like a car accident.

I played well to get out of the game, but after I had time to think calmly, I felt like that.

'In the future, it will be several times worse than this.'

Injuries are a fatal fate for football players.

For Team Ace in particular, it was obvious that tackles and checks would be more concentrated in the future, which would have become even worse.

No matter how rock-hard your body is, you are injured if your opponent decides.

Ho-young felt scared about it.

You may end up having a hospital tomorrow morning.

'I can't help it. I have to be careful. '

It wasn't solved with care, but it was better than not.

You have to take care of your body anyway.

13 days the next day.

The third game against Honduras in Shanghai was boring.

Even if it was a draw, Korea, which was confirmed to advance to the quarterfinals, played slowly and slowly.

But I couldn't afford it.

If they didn't make it to the top of the group, they were 99% likely to face Brazil from the quarterfinals.

Fortunately, however, Honduras was eliminated.

There's nothing to lose, so I was going to play hard, but not at all.

In the midst of the gap, the crew struck out the first goal and played an extreme defensive tactic, using only half-court for fitness arrangements.

Ho Young was already removed from the selection team for the purpose of physical fitness arrangements, so he could relax on the bench.

If you get a tie even if you go to play at that time was a stop.

But it didn't have to be that way.

The tournament's weakest player did not succeed in fighting against Honduras, and had to give Korea one-on-one victory.

The game wasn't very good, but I won it anyway.

Meanwhile, the match between Cameroon and Italy at the same time ended with a 2-2 draw.

As a result, Group D, which Korea belongs to, came to an end.

[Group D]

1st place Korea 2 Win 1 Mu

2nd place Italy 1 Win 2 Mu

3rd Cameroon 1 Win 1 Draw 1 Lose

4 Honduras 0 Win 0 Draw 3 Lose

Korea, which expected the second place at best, was proud of winning the eighth round ticket.

The quarterfinals were scheduled to take place in Beijing on the 16th, three days later.

And the opponent is ....

[2008 Beijing Olympic Soccer, Belgium's strongest opponent] Belgium

When the news came to Korea, the netizens' reaction was not a mess.

There are some opinions that they are glad that they have avoided Brazil's overwhelming champion, but there are also many opinions that they can not be assured yet.

Hwang Tae-seok, a correspondent for the Beijing Olympics, wrote these articles locally and sent them to the company.

The manuscript was briefly published in the morning paper the next day.

[Stop wandering at the door. When both attack and defense must wake up.

The soccer professional site 'Gool.com' noted that the shortcomings of the Korean national team were "heavy physical waste tactics," "uneasy central defense," and "the lack of goal determination."

In particular, Lee Cheong-ryong and Park Joo-hyung's lack of goal determination was evident in Honduras.

However, if you send Woo-young to the front line, you will not be able to take advantage of the defense. It's time for director Park Sung-ho's decision.]

It was an article that pinpointed the current situation.

Korea's power has already been exposed, especially since it was a weak team and had to throw a game.

Next match, Belgium.

They would have been humiliated in a match against China in Group C, but they were the team's second-place finisher.

The team was one less than Cameroon, but he was never a match.

In particular, he had to watch out for striker "Mousa Dembele," who has rallied more than 10 goals in the first division of the Netherlands.

As a result, Korea entered into vigorous training, and the night of battle was approaching fast.
