1. Suzuki Ayakini's poor performance in the Asian Cup
At this year's Asian Cup, 21-year-old mixed-race player Ayaki Suzuki became Japan's starting goalkeeper, but he had a poor performance in the game, which led to the team conceding five goals in the group stage. Suzuki's many low-level mistakes were a big surprise and attracted widespread attention from the outside world.
2. Onana's disappointment returns
Cameroonian goalkeeper Onana has struggled for Manchester United this season and has failed to turn things around since returning to the national team. He played just one game in the Africa Cup of Nations, which saw Cameroon lose 3-1 to Senegal and Onana failed to make a difference. The trip to the Africa Cup of Nations was a disappointment and a short one.
3. Gabsky's dilemma
Egypt's international Gabasky has also been underwhelming at this Africa Cup of Nations. His Egyptian side conceded six goals in the group stage, the most of any knockout team. In addition, Gabasky's judgment and technical ability in penalty shootouts were also questioned, and he almost never succeeded in judging the direction of the opponent's shot, and missed a penalty at a crucial moment, which became an indirect reason for Egypt's elimination.
1. Showdown in the focus game
In the 1 8 finals of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d'Ivoire, the last runner-up Egypt played a key match against the Democratic Republic of Congo. Both teams performed very well in the group stage, finishing with a straight finish.
2. The process and results of the competition
In the game, Democratic Congo's Meshak Elia was the first to break the deadlock, while Egypt's Mustafa Mohammed equalised from the penalty spot. After that, the two sides did not achieve anything and the game went into extra time. In the end, the game was decided in the form of a penalty shootout. In the ninth round of penalty shootouts, Egyptian goalkeeper Gabasky missed the penalty kick, while the Democratic Republic of Congo's goalkeeper easily hit it, and finally Egypt was eliminated with a score of 7-8 and missed out on advancing to the quarterfinals.
3. Technical statistics show that the strength of the two teams is close
The technical statistics after the game showed that the two sides won and lost basically the same game, and there was no obvious difference between advantages and inferiorities. Egypt drew all of their opponents in their first three group games, while Democratic Republic of Congo also qualified in a complete draw. Therefore, it can be said that the defeat of the Egyptian team in the penalty shootout was more the result of bad luck.
1. The pressure brought to the team by the goalkeeper's mistakes
As the team's last line of defence, goalkeeper mistakes often mean conceding goals, which puts a lot of pressure on the team. Whether it's Ayaka Suzuki, Onana or Gabasky, low-level mistakes in important matches have put them in the spotlight of suspicion and put an extra burden on their teams.
2. The impact of the goalkeeper's performance on the team's promotion
An excellent goalkeeper is an important guarantee for the team's promotion, and mistakes again and again will undoubtedly become an obstacle to the team's promotion. Suzuki's poor performance, Onana's disappointing return and Gabasky's woes all contributed to their team's difficulties and even directly affected their promotion.
1. The role of the goalkeeper
The goalkeeper is a very important member of the team, responsible for protecting the goal and preventing the opponent from scoring a goal. They need to have excellent reflexes, accurate judgment, and good technical skills.
