Volume 4 World Cup Legends Chapter 66 Teasing Journalists
The Chinese team played very easily, and successively replaced three substitute players on the debut, and Costa Rica's desperate attack also got a lot of good opportunities, but by the last ten minutes, their physical strength had been consumed, and when they encountered the opportunity, they were either too hasty, or unlucky, either hitting the plane or being easily obtained by goalkeeper Zong Cheng, and they were never able to score the third goal.
In the blink of an eye, the 90 minutes of the game were full, and there were still three minutes of stoppage time to end, at this time the Chinese fans couldn't wait, they all stood up, desperately chanting "Qualify!" We're out! ”
Commentator Huang Jianxiang also began to comment on the performance of the players one by one, and made a final conclusion for the national team. "Now we don't have to be cautious, we don't have to be humble, although the game is not over yet, we can already say for sure: we have qualified. The night of Wulihe is no longer the spiritual opium we use to feel self-pity, we no longer have to rely on memories to live, now we proudly say that we are the world's top 32 teams. It was a great moment and the fans across the country will remember these people, they are the goalkeeper Zong Cheng, who was the hero of China's World Cup qualification: he was very solid and very quick-witted, even though he has only played six official games, although he is only 20 years old, we can still say that he is the best goalkeeper in China.
Fan Yang: Worthy of Li Huan's trust in him. Although the performance in the attack was not eye-catching, he managed to stabilize his position, did not leave any chance for the opponent on the left side of his town, and occasionally inserted a few attacks to be very threatening, as a defender also scored a goal, he is one of the most reliable guarantees for the left side of the Chinese team.
Wang Chunlei: There are still a lot of loopholes in the combination of him and Xu Bin, but because the Chinese team is very ferocious, the opponent does not put much pressure on him in this game. In the second half, because of his and Xu Bin's position mistakes, he gave the opponent a single chance. His fighting spirit didn't say that he fought until his nose bleed in the last round of the group stage, which would grit his teeth and stick to the game in the case of muscle strain.
Xu Bin: Compared to Wang Chunlei, Xu Bin, who plays at Atletico Madrid, has a wider range of movement and is faster. But as a central defender, the rescue is too fierce, it is easy to be broken through by the opponent, and his position is not reasonable enough, and the goalkeeper and the back are not well communicated, giving the opponent a single knife and scoring an own goal. But then he was perfect.
Li Huan: Do you still need to comment on this? Without Li Huan, there would be no national team, without Li Huan, the Chinese team would not even be able to get the first play-off, 14 goals in six games, and every critical moment to help the Chinese team move forward with clearance and goals, Li Huan really brought the Chinese team into the World Cup by himself.
Wu Han: A real warrior, among the original members of the national team, he is also the only player who has gotten the main position, fighting actively, covering a large area, and the ability to shoot from a distance, Li Huan is really discerning to select him from many mediocre talents.
Liu Chao: The running range is very large, and the defense is diligent, because on Li Huan's side, he is too inconspicuous, but his diligence and enthusiasm still make Li Huan less worried.
Yu Tong: The middle commander of the Chinese team, less than 20 years old, thin and small, but very general-like, breakthrough passes are very impressive, but a little young and impetuous, sometimes like to play tricks, an irresponsible pass in the first half almost ruined the Chinese team, but after being criticized by Li Huan, he became a lot calmer, and in time, he will play a major role in the World Cup.
Chen Teng: Although the limelight is not as good as Yu Tong, as an attacking defender, he only scored one goal. But it can be seen that he is in good shape, which involves a lot of energy from his opponent. Gu Tianyuan: The one who played the least of the four Atletico Madrid players, his thin body limited his performance, and he still needs to exercise his body if he wants to occupy the main position, but there are still 7 months before the World Cup, and he still has a chance.
Xu Yang: He is one of the heroes of the Chinese team! Although he has no speed, no breakthrough and occasionally likes to fake falls, as long as he is given enough time, he can bring more goals. He is China's Inzaghi.
Force, force, force......
At this time, the referee blew the whistle in his hand, and the game was over.
At the moment when the whistle blew at the end of the game, the Yizhong Stadium was boiling, and the coaches, substitutes, and staff rushed into the stadium together, hugging the sweaty but happy players.
More than a thousand security guards and armed police in front of the stands were not able to stop the excited fans, about hundreds of people sneaked down from the stands, surrounded the players, undressed, hugged, thrown, knelt down, and did everything, in just a few minutes, the players of the Chinese team were only left with underwear, and Li Huan was not only stripped of his clothes, but also had lip prints on his face, because he was accidentally kissed by a male fan, Li Huan was wiping it disgustingly, and assistant coach Chu Fu was competing with a group of fans for the game ball at this time, The scene was extremely enthusiastic, not at all like the old coach who usually looked serious and serious.
Not only the Yizhong Stadium is boiling, but the island city is also boiling, and the whole of China is boiling.
"We're out!"
"We won!"
"Long live Li Huan!"
"Long live the national team!"
"Die to the Football Association."
Fans shouted slogans from bars, homes, hotels and other corners of the street rushed onto the streets, and more and more citizens joined in, everyone began to march around the island city, national flags flew everywhere, firecrackers and gongs and drums sounded.
At the same time, the joy of the national team's qualification spread rapidly from the island city to all directions, Dalian Olympic Plaza, Yanjing [***] Square, Hangzhou Huanglong Sports Center, Hong Kong Causeway Bay Times Square, and even remote Inner Mongolia There are fans rushing out of their homes, picking up a firecracker and setting it off...... Everywhere there were revelry fans and the joy and tears they shed.
Stadium security and armed police quickly evicted the fans to the stands, but the fans were elated one by one, as most of them had the jerseys, pants and shoes of the national team players in their hands.
After the fans left, the reporters grabbed the players and coaches of the national team for live interviews, and for them, every word the players said now has a commemorative meaning.
The players of the national team in addition to Li Huan, there are 4 members of the national team are mostly young, since they joined the national team, they have been smooth sailing, have not encountered any trouble, they did not rush into the World Cup for the first time after the players so much emotion, no one shed tears, their faces are full of youth and victory pride, when interviewed by reporters, they are also full of pride, bent on breaking the shame of the Chinese team in the World Cup zero goals. Although the four players including Wu Han and Fan Yang, who have experienced two national teams, are also ecstatic, their joy is much deeper.
The performance of Li Huan, the founder of this magical national team, after qualifying, surprised the reporter, this is the first time that the thirty-year-old Li Huan participated in the World Cup qualifiers, and it should be said that Li Huan will be ecstatic to complete such a miracle, but in fact, Li Huan is very detached except for the excitement of hugging each other with each player at the end of the game, and he looks like he was once in trouble.
Jia Lei, a reporter from "Qiu Bao", asked straight to the point: "Li Huan, it seems that you are very calm?" ”
Li Huan smiled and asked rhetorically: "Why can't I be calm, it's the second time I've rushed into the World Cup, we don't need to be so excited, besides, there are more difficult tasks waiting for us later, if we come back with 9 duck eggs like the last time we rushed into the World Cup, we will only be worse than them." ”
"Can you compare the difference between going to the World Cup twice?" Jia Lei asked seriously, as if she and Li Huan were just acquaintances.
Li Huan replied in the same seriousness, "Of course, these are two different teams, different coaches, different players, and different fates and endings in the future." ”
"Did you miss a point, we were drawn out of the World Cup last time, and this time we are really out of Asia." A reporter from the Weekly newspaper added loudly.
Li Huan smiled and said: "No one asks about this, Denmark was able to play the European Cup only because of the sanctions imposed by Yugoslavia, but they won the championship." It's not how you get into the World Cup, it's what kind of results you play in the World Cup. ”
"Then what kind of results do you think the Chinese team can achieve in the World Cup?" The correspondent of the weekly newspaper added.
"I think we can win it." Li Huan said with a smile.
The reporter of "Weekly" saw Li Huan joking with him, and hurriedly added: "I asked seriously." ”
Li Huan also said seriously: "I also answered seriously." ”
"Do you think the Chinese team really has the strength to win the championship?" The reporter of the "Weekly" was a little confused.
"Of course, I think the Chinese team definitely has the strength to win the championship. I just don't know what other people think. Li Huan continued to laugh.
The reporter of "Weekly" came to his senses and said self-deprecatingly: "In fact, South Korea and Turkey can reach the semi-finals, and it is nothing for the Chinese team to win the championship." ”
CCTV sports reporter Rui Gang also came to the scene for an interview, he said: "In such a day of universal celebration, what do you want to say to the fans most? ”
Li Huan smiled slightly and said, "First of all, I want to thank the party and the country......"
All the reporters couldn't help laughing, but only Rui Gang was still serious, "If the players really had such an awareness, Chinese football would have rushed into the World Cup a long time ago." Such a serious topic, I hope you will take it seriously. ”
Li Huan was still smiling and said: "If the players have such an awareness, we will not be able to enter the World Cup for another three hundred years, because these players have gone to become officials of the Football Association, who still plays." ”
"Li Huan, I hope you can be interviewed seriously, now there are more than a billion fans around the world watching you and me." CCTV reporter Rui Gang said unhappily, he thought that a CCTV reporter like himself came to interview Li Huan, but Li Huan was so faceless, he was really a little ignorant.
Li Huan restrained his smile and said seriously: "Okay, I can answer seriously, but I want to ask you to answer a question first, are you going to show the leaders or the fans when you interview me?" ”
Rui Gang said: "Is this important?" Do you think that the leaders and the fans are opposites? ”
Li Huan smiled and said, "Are you ten thousand why?" You can ask me so many questions and you don't want to answer me a single question, I'm sorry, I refuse to be interviewed by a reporter like you, please come back. ”
Rui Gang was angry and said, "I have the right to interview, I have the right to interview." ”
Li was happy and said: "You have the right to interview, and I also have the right not to accept your interview, I repeat, you - get out of the way." ”
Seeing Li Huan turn around and aim his butt at himself, CCTV big-name reporter Rui Gang turned around helplessly and indignantly and left. However, he is ready to appeal to the Football Association to punish Li Huan harshly, so that he understands that no matter how awesome and powerful he is, he is also a Chinese player.
After the CCTV reporter left, the interview continued, and Li Huan answered what the reporters wanted to know most about the selection of national team players, when he personally served as the head coach of the team, and the relationship between him and the Football Association after entering the World Cup.
Li Huan told reporters that the selection of national team players from Daystar Football School was not nepotism, but that Daystar Football School was really selected from a nationwide selection of good seedlings, receiving European football training on the right track, and being familiar with himself, and the run-in time required was short.
As for when he will be the head coach of the team in person, Li Huan told reporters that his coaching certificate will be available in February next year, but he still prefers the current command mode, he and assistant coach Chu Fu cooperate very well, even if he serves as the head coach, he will not make too many rectifications to the current coaching staff.
The relationship between the national team and the Football Association is a key factor in whether the Chinese team can achieve good results, and now everything in the national team is team autonomy, because most of the games are now in the country and in the continent, and the staff of the national team can take care of it themselves, and it will take at least a month to go to Brazil, and I am afraid that the manpower will not be enough to rely on the membership autonomy of the national team alone, and it also involves the relationship with FIFA.
In this regard, Li Huan said that he would negotiate with the Football Association, and the original decision was only to not allow the Football Association to interfere in the games and training of the national team.
After the interview, Li Huan and the members of the national team took a bus to celebrate the celebration around the city, about four or five hundred thousand fans walked around the second ring road with the luxury bus, every household was like the New Year, until more than 3 o'clock in the morning, the celebration was over, and the fans and national team players went home to rest.
