Chapter 174: Away Battle of Persia

The celebration has continued from Changsha to the whole country, and fans across the country are now in high spirits.

Not counting the significance of getting these three points, the victory over South Korea alone is enough to make the fans happy!

The top 12 double killed the enemy South Korea!

How Chinese fans are not excited!!

The celebrations in the Changsha Helong Stadium continued, and at the post-match press conference, Lippi also looked quite happy, and the Italian boss said in front of the media camera: "We played well throughout the game, especially defensively, our defence did not give South Korea too many chances, here I need to praise our defenders, they did a great job!" ”

After speaking, Lippi took a sip of mineral water that was torn off the outer packaging and only left a bare plastic bottle, and continued: "Our attack is also good, set-pieces are our key offensive methods, and our set-piece attack today is world-class!" Because we have one of the best centre-forwards in the world. The win in this game brings us very close to qualifying, but we can't afford to take it lightly yet, we haven't secured a World Cup yet, so we have to build up the next games and hopefully win more games! ”

Stillic's frustration could be seen on his face, but he also had to come to the press conference: "I have to take responsibility for the loss, especially to the fans and journalists from South Korea, who came all the way to China and we couldn't bring the points back to South Korea. In the next four games, hopefully we can change something, now we are in a difficult situation, hopefully we don't make mistakes in the next games. The opponents in the next four games are very strong, but as long as we do our best, we should still have a chance to reach the World Cup in Russia next year. ”

Whether the South Korean team still has any hope of reaching the World Cup in Russia can only be left to the South Koreans to calculate.

For the Chinese team, all they have to do is celebrate their victory.

The bus of the Chinese team drove out of Helong Sports, and on the streets of Changsha, countless fans gave thumbs up to the Chinese players on the bus, and the players also waved out the window.

The team quickly returned to the hotel.

On the way back to the hotel, Stillik was fired by the Korean Football Association.

Swept away by the Chinese team, there is little hope of qualifying for the World Cup, and Stillik can only become the backstabber of the current situation of the South Korean team.

However, the news of Stillik's dismissal The Chinese players only sighed slightly, and after they returned to the hotel, they immediately took a shower and went back to rest.

Their next game is a West Asian powerhouse, Persia and Iran.

The only unbeaten teams in the same group are now China and Iran.

The two teams have played each other in Shenyang before, but both sides have taken one point each and it has ended in a draw.

In other games, the Chinese team and the Iranian team won their own games, so now after six rounds, the Chinese team and the Iranian team are five wins and one draw, with 16 points, and the Chinese team is temporarily ranked first in the group by virtue of the advantage of two goal difference.

The players of the Chinese team did not dare to relax in the slightest.

Iran are the strongest team in the group, and China do not have the slightest advantage in their past records.

The Chinese team has played Iran five times in history, without any victory, losing all five games, losing 0-2 in the 1976 Asian Cup semifinals in extra time, losing 2-3 and 1-4 in the 1989 and 1997 World Preliminary Rounds, and losing 0-4 and 1-3 in the warm-up matches in 2001 and 2009.

This is an embarrassing record, but it also lets the players of the Chinese team know that the Azadi Stadium in Tehran is definitely an away game that is difficult to conquer!

It's a crucial battle for both sides, and the winner of this game can basically lock in a spot for the show!

Therefore, there is no waterproof for either side in this game, and although Iran and China are far ahead of the second and third places in Group A, no one can guarantee what will happen in the next few rounds, and both teams want to qualify as soon as possible, so as not to have a long night's sleep.

The players of the Chinese team flew directly to Tehran in Changsha the next day.

What is different from the past is that now the national football team is the sweetheart of the domestic football teams of various countries, and the Football Association specially asked the civil aviation to coordinate a special plane as a special plane for the national football team to play away.

For a team, these logistical teams are also quite important.

For example, the 2014 World Cup winners, Germany, have rented a park stadium in Brazil, with a nearly two-kilometre radius of the German team's chassis, equipped with security, a dedicated German chef, and ingredients are flown directly from Germany.

After the reorganization, the Chinese Football Association also learned from these advanced countries and established a team of logistical support.

If the national football team finally reaches the World Cup in Russia, this plane will also land at the airport in Moscow!

The plane traveled thousands of miles from East Asia to West Asia and landed in Tehran.

One step ahead of the Chinese players are the Chinese journalists!

As soon as the players walked out of the airport, the flashing lights started flashing. But no one stopped for an interview.

The Chinese team's bus was waiting at the airport gate, and the Chinese players quickly boarded the bus and went to a five-star hotel about two kilometers from the training base.

East and West Asia spanned nearly six urban areas, and in fact the division of West and East Asia into one continent was the work of arrogant Europeans. East Asia, including the countries of Southeast Asia, compared with the countries of South Asia and West Asia, has no place to match in terms of race, skin color, or culture, but they are collectively called "Asia" by Europeans, which has to be said to be a Eurocentric continental division.

East Asian countries have tried to push for the separation of East and West Asia at the football level.

Because for East Asian teams, the level of teams in West Asia is actually not high, and there are still so many countries, which lowers the overall rating of Asia. What's more, when playing away in West Asia, I often encounter all kinds of problems, not to mention, this distance alone is enough to cause headaches.

The Asian Football Confederation controlled by West Asians has also suppressed East Asian teams, and it is no wonder that East Asian teams are dissatisfied. But in the end, the matter was over...

The players suffered jet lag in the hotel and had an acclimatization session the next morning, before going to Tehran's Azadhi Stadium in the afternoon to step on the pitch.

The game will be played at 6 p.m. on March 28, and the time is still very tight for the Chinese team.
