If mental strength was useful, the Koreans would have already won the World Cup!
Seeing Huang Kaiwen's performance, Keisuke Honda realized he was going to be an example of not trying hard again, criticized by the newspapers to motivate young people back home.
Keisuke Honda felt he couldn't just sit and wait for his fate!
Upon the restart, Keisuke Honda was like he was injected with adrenaline, his footwork was at its peak, and his mind was calmer than ever.
With a flick of his right foot, he passed the ball to his left foot.
With the left foot, he nudged the ball forward, trying to use his skills to get past Higuain.
Higuain extended his foot immediately, and Keisuke Honda quickly pulled the ball back, trying to slip past him.
But Higuain, always cautious, instantly regained his balance and went for another kick.
Keisuke Honda barely had time to adjust, so he braced himself, shielding the ball with his back, making Higuain's kick inevitably hit the back of his calf.
