Crushing the gap, how many can South Korea win?

Friday East Asian Cup Hong Kong vs South Korea

Hong Kong team in China has been in a sluggish state recently. They defeated Japan 1-6 in the first round of the East Asian Cup, conceded 5 goals in the first half, exposing problems such as insufficient defensive focus and loopholes in the defense line. The main central defender Xu Hongjie was absent for a long time due to torn knee ligament, and the replacement Li Jiajin and naturalized player Du Du have a weak awareness of assisting defense, resulting in the air defense system being useless. Although EYongjia scored a header on the offensive end, his counterattack dependence was obvious, and his midfield control was insufficient, making it difficult to continue to threaten his opponent. This game is likely to be a 5-4-1 or 5-3-2 iron barrel array, shrinking the defense line and compressing the penalty area space, trying to cut off the key pass line of the South Korean team through dense defense.

The South Korean team is in a better shape, with 7 wins and 5 draws in the last 10 games and has remained unbeaten, and has won all the games and scored in 3 games, including a 3-0 victory over the Chinese team. He averaged 2.3 goals per game on the offensive end, and the K League elite team showed efficient cooperation. Lee Dong-ling, Joo Min-ga and Moon Hyun-min were on the front line, and Jin Jin-gyu of Jeonbuk Hyundai and Park Jin from Ulsan were in charge. Although he was not the main force, his strength was still above Hong Kong, China. The South Korean team focused on the defense in this issue. They performed well against the Chinese team in the last round and scored their opponents without any penalty. The goal of playing against Hong Kong tonight is still to be a penalty.

South Korea occupies an absolute dominance in its historical confrontation with Hong Kong, China. In the past three official matches, the South Korean team won all and did not lose a single goal, scoring a total of 10 goals and averaging 4 goals per game. This overwhelming advantage is not only reflected in the score, but also forms an insurmountable psychological gap. The support for South Korea is large enough in data. It is optimistic that South Korea can easily win the game, and the sports lottery will lose, with scores of 0-5 and 0-4.
